Alright here’s my bestest attempt so far! Learned the basics of the trick, now just gotta smooth it out. [![](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/yoyoexpert1/original/4X/8/e/c/8ec20a99a46faf1d32b236e1137d763990335d30.jpeg "Trick-A-Week Week #37: Sam Magallon Smooth Trick") ](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-k8cMgmR-WQ) Gotta say this trick looks harder than it is and yoyojoe’s tutorial is amazing. Thanks for sharing this trick @CPC, this was a great pick! 😁 ---

yeah there is a certain part at the end that is tricky where you have to make sure you are in the right mount before you do that weird turnover across your hand. Had to rewatch several times to get it. ---

If your yo-yo isn’t flopping, you’re not pushing the string in the right direction. You need to pull apart, but also push the string towards the body of the yo-yo. The YoTricks tutorials on gyro flops explain how to control the flop speed and direction. ---

Wooooh! 😲 Now that’s a banger! Definitely a trick that I can see my non-yoyo friends enjoy. I think some muscle memory learned during the Ladder Escape will be useful for this one. ---
