There is a problem I’m running into when I do the Mach Whip. I’ve got every step down except the last one. Whenever I go to whip it, the string just wraps around the yoyo, not catching back to me. I’ve watched many videos on how to do it. Please help!!

Okay this probably means your whipping it too fast because I to have this problem sometimes but the best way to solve it is practice and tacking it slow.

Make sure you have the extra wrap around your finger. The wrap is probably falling off of your finger as you make the motion.
