Hello! I am currently learning idiom. I have the vast majority of the trick easily under control, but when I drop the strings, I land in a sort of upside-down trapeze, as though I was trying to bind it back. Any help appreciated. ---

I’ve tried every way of ending that I can think of and I can’t figure out what string you could be landing on to end up in an upside-down trapeze. The only advice I can think to give would be to make sure that at the point where you land the yoyo onto the string behind your arm and then bring it around your arms, you land the yoyo on the string on the end of your freehand index finger. That’s really all I can think of to tell you. Let me know how you’re doing with it. ---

Sorry, I took a closer look at what happens and it is either a trapeze with a twist, or the yoyo just falls off of the bottom of the string. I don’t know why I thought it was an upside-down trapeze. Thanks and sorry!
