Do a Trapeze, and insert both pointer fingers in it so it looks like a triangle.

Rock the yo-yo to your left over the 2 pointer fingers. Once you have it, do it again.

Drop the string on your throwhand pointer finger, and rock the yo-yo to your right twice, and you’ll be in a Trapeze.

Hope this helped!

Just throw trapezes and practice practice practice,

The thing about the last move thats nice is its just a trapeze…

Good luck!

Here’ how you do the whole trick-

Start with a Breakaway but continue swinging it around one full time in front of your body, also known as a World Tour. (Like a sideways around the world.) Finally land it into a One And A Half Mount. Swing all the way out of it around back into a Trapeze and his Bro. (Bounce the yo-yo off the string and land backwards on your throwhand pointer finger. To do this, you will have to stick out your thumb or middle finger of your non-throwhand to grab the string.) Swing that off the string all the way back into a Double or Nothing. Drop the string off your throwhand pointer finger and roll back into Trapeze, dismount. Youre done! :wink:

Like Smoke said, practice, practice, practice.

Are you left handed?

If so, swing to your right.

If you’re left handed and are swinging to your left, that can cause problems.

Hope that helps!

What’s happening when you try to hit the last move?

I had a little trouble with that part as well when I first started learning the trick. So I just practiced that element individually till I could land it consecutively, then worked on the completed trick. The way it lands it looks like it’s not right, but when I drop the throw hand strings it’s fine.
