when I try to do jade whip the yoyo keeps rotating when i pinch so that I cannot whip it into the gap.

I know how to whip pretty good.

I can do the OS whip, so, I’ve got the motion.

You need to steady the yoyo at the same time you are grabbing and it’s all about practice. ;D

Try throwing straighter. The string is porbably hitting the sides causing your yoyo to rotate. aLso, don’t pinch really close to the yoyo. I’m not sure if you’re doing that, but that is also something that can make the yoyo rotate.

One thing that would really help out is to master Iron Whip.
