I’d like to try to get into some horizontal play, but it’s pretty tricky. I was hoping for some tips or some tutorial vids off YouTube maybe.

This stuff should give you a fairly good start to look at this stuff. The Jensen Kimmit one is humorous but It does teach you.

Yeah, that Jensen kimmitt one is good for a basic start. That’s probably the best one to practice with first for sure.

The jensen kimmitt thing should help. It does take some getting used to. One of the key factors is to keep the yoyo in CONSTANT movement. So for your first tricks try to pick a trick that is either very fast or has a lot of movements. Skin the gerbil is really good for starters.
