Do it over and over. It will eventually be super easy. Then do it over and over a little faster, once again, it will be just as easy as going slow once you do it enough. Repeat the process ---

Practicing on a smaller yoyo generally can help you improve your accuracy. Having trouble landing every hop in Kamikaze? Try it on a Popstar. ---

I recommend trying to do tricks that require you to hit the string over and over again. Something like rewind requires you to hit the string and gets you in the habit of doing so and it also doesn’t have pops like kwijibow. Try doing rewind over and over then faster and faster. But magic is probably your best bet. ---

> [@yoyo143](#): > > Haha guys!! Im talking about stuff lie this, there was a post sating if you play a really light throw, then play a normal throw, you will become faster, there were more, but yah. Once I get a trick down OK, I switch up yoyos. Size, weight, width, mix it all up. Make sure I can land it on stuff big and small. AND practice as much as possible.
