That’s going to happen a lot as you get into more complex tricks. As you practice it more it’ll get better, and I personally like to practice the most choppy elements of a new trick by themselves when I can.

Of course you can participate @adamantiumpops.  
This is open to anyone who wants to get better and learn more tricks.

The whole idea is let’s all get better together.  
(Just don’t compete in the UK Nationals 2020 trick ladder and make me come second again, I will kill you)

Otherwise we all good 😇

Man it’s midnight here and I just got home half an hour ago from work.  
And I already feel like I’m way behind.

Right I’m off to watch tutorial and check out this trick that I signed myself and others up to this week.

Arghhhhhhh why why why does my Kamikaze mount hit the top string but reject the string it was originally on everytime I let go of my thumb? T\_T

What am I doing wrong guys?

(Luck would have it the first time I land it, it’s on camera asking for help on why can’t I land it lol)

That mount’s a pain, but what works for me is to keep pulling my hands apart after the pop into the top string. It kinda pulls everything into the gap. Then you can relax and sag into the mount.

Trying to have a sensation of snapping close sharply helped

Pop it towards your throw hand rather than up.

Now I need to figure out how to land on the back string only. Man each step is not easy but it feels like it’s good training in general

EDIT: Actually, my original post here would probably only confuse the issue. It sounds like maybe the rejection isn’t happening the way it needs to.

When you put it like that, it sounds so obvious…  
I never thought of it that way.

This is awesome to know for any tricks so I am glad I asked.

Also apparently I ran out of “likes” for the day.  
So you got my last one for tonight 🙂

I just wish I could find the tutorial that fixed my issues with magic drop. Aside from consistency, but that’s a whole other kettle of fish.
