Iron Whip / Bloody Knuckles

I’ve been trying to learn the Iron Whip, and I can land it 4/5 times. Occasionally though, I do something wrong and it will pop back up and slam into my knuckles. Anyone else ever have this problem and know how to fix it?

Ty in advance,

Reverse how it’s spinning so it binds the different direction from your whip?

well, you could reverse the spin, but that might mess up your other tricks if you do them on the same through. I’d try a less responsive yoyo.

Yes, and be sure you have good tension so when your yoyo gets a bit of slack the string won’t kink up inside the yoyo and break your knuckles. Using a less responsive yoyo would probably be a good idea.

less response ;D
