It’s simple yet hard to explain. You have to whip the string around the yoyo to be able to land the GT. Just Try copying wht he does and try to figure out the GT.

Do you mean the thing at the beginning he does to fix the string tension, or the first trick after that?

It is pretty much the same exact thing as this video.

Only it isn’t a Wrist Mount it is a GT, so basically instead of reaching through the loop and landing, you just land the GT and display it. In case you haven’t noticed (no saracasm, I am trying to be informative, not a jerk) a Wrist Mount is just a GT around your wrist. So I would just practice the motion in Andre’s video and study your video’s variation and you should be able to get it, no problem. 😃 Hope this helped 😃

Thanks, I just need to know what he is doing when he swings the string around with the yoyo

I’m glad I could help, and in case your last post was a question, he is doing precisely what Andre does in that tut, again, only instead of intersecting it with your hand, you simply just mount the yoyo onto the string you tossed over, it should land you in a GT, then just adjust your hands appropriately to display the GT, and I want to say you are going to dismount from the back, or rather the side closest to you. Again, I hope this is helping 😃
