I’ve been trying to learn horizontal lately, and I can nail banana turnover to trapeze, but if i try to transfer that to trapeze and his brother, it turns vertical again. Any tips? ---

Do it normally, and work on fluidity, then speed. Now try it horizontal again. ---

Make sure you keep it at eye level. As the yoyo goes around your thumb you should bring it upwards, by the time it is swinging into the trapeze the string and yoyo should be at your eye level. ---

I like to lean back so I can see the throw better. I get a better sense of if its horizontal if I’m looking more upwards to the yoyo.
