I can land the Banana Turnover-Trapeze-Bind but I don’t know what else to do after. Any tutorials or suggestions would be great. Thanks in advance!

Go back to non ridiculous yoyoing. :wink:  
No really once you get the basic’s of any style its best to venture out on your own and produce something of substance. The only way to do so is to create your own stuff.  
Watch people do the style you are trying to advance and use what they do as motivation but don’t copy it. The net result will be you doing cool stuff with a yoyo, unless you do it horizontal then you will just look kinda’ spastic. :wink:  
Anyhow there is your answer with a little friend jab mixed in. lol :wink:

I find the Skin the Hamster to be a fast, easily done horizontally, trick.

You can also do Red Halo and just do the last double trapeze thing at the end of Skin the Gerbil.
