When I land in the trapeze, I always have a knot. I’m not sure what I’m doing wrong when popping out of the eiffel tower. Thanks

Update: I got out of the tower correctly but I don’t know what I did differently ???

When I land the second hop and dismount, I have a simple knot it the string… not sure why yet…

When dismounting, have your pointer finger cover both strings and land on the string closest to you.

Okay. I see what you did there. Thanks! I’ll try it, but for now I’m having trouble getting the first hop again, of course :wink:

You can practice the dismount without doing a hop 8)

Thanks for the the support and the video (the link is broken, so I don’t actually know whether it is helpful or not :wink: . I have been diagnosing this trick and have worked my way back to the original wrist mount, and that’s where the problem lies… fantastic! I’ve been doing wrist mounts wrong all this time and it wasn’t until I tried the Spirit Bomb that it became a problem… now that I have that figured out, I can muddle through the trick without the inevitable knot at the end. Now, I just have to polish up that finally hop and I’ll be good to go :wink:

Nice trick, overlooked this one. Like many others, but the tower is a nice twist.
