If the yo-yo is bouncing off the string you just need to give it a little slack right as the yo-yo hits it - just move your non-throw hand in slightly when the yo-yo hits and it’ll roll right over your throw hand finger.

unfortunately… it’s just going to be a lot of practice to get this one right.
however…
in the meanwhile, as a workaround, you can try by first landing a trapeze, then sticking your throwhand’s forefinger into the trapeze loop, and pushing the yoyo into the string closest to your throwhand.
should get you into a 1.5 mount nice and easy.
the text description’s kinda convoluted, but I hope that helps! 🙂
