Awesome! The breakaway is a difficult throw to get down, just keep on practicing! Once you mastered it you’ll be glad you did, because like 80% of yoyo tricks on built on top of the breakaway. This tutorial might help you: [![](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/yoyoexpert1/original/4X/7/1/3/713e1de1780c471d134f463ab20b3c082792c300.jpeg "Learn the Breakaway Throw Yoyo Trick") ](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AhMjQWEtywE) ---

New string came in and some bearing lube from this website (some of the lube somehow leaked into the package in transit though and caused an oily mess but no prob) . It made a big difference! I got the Trapez landing on the string I’d say 50% of the time now. It also has enough spin time for me to rock it back and forth a couple times. Having a bit of trouble gettin it to return to my hand still, pulling my hands apart like in the video not working too good. Any advice ? Is there a general discussion thread to move this to or is it in the right pace? ---

Hey all, my name’s Stephanie and I’ve been yoyoing for about 1.5 years. I like to make technical elements. My favorite players are Evan Nagao, Hirotaka Akiba, and Takeshi. My favorite tricks are the 1.5 Eli Hop and Gentrified (Ann Bubak). Currently using the Magicyoyo n11 and I’m hoping to upgrade some time soon. I’m looking forward to discussing yoyo with you all! ---

That’s awesome! To get the yoyo to come back to your hand you just need to pop the yoyo up into the air. Once the string isn’t taut, the response system will kick in and the yoyo will come back to your hand. Pulling your hands apart causes the string to remain taut and not come back to your hand. It’s extremely useful for tricks like Eli Hops, but that’s a way more advanced trick for another time. Yeah there is, feel free to ask questions in #Yo-Yo Tricks. ---
