Nice job AK!! That’s about where my best has been so far as well.

Really haven’t put the time into this like I should be this week. Been a crazy busy/stressful week for me.

I find having a thicker string helps…but still I can’t get the string to fly up super high like in the tutorial video yet. Also having issues with the yo touching my hand/thumb when placing it between my index finger and thumb. Just one of those things I’m not use to yet.

ah I wasn’t suggesting you modify your yoyo.  
Do you own more than one yoyo by any chance?  
If you do I hear ones that have higher inner walls, and also those that have tighter binds as opposed to slippier binds inject better.  
@JWaugh is the main man to ask for injection tips 🙂  
I haven’t even tried yet so everything I am saying doesn’t cone from experience but purely from what I read before around forums etc

Looking great so far dude. I’m pretty close with it too. It seems to be important to feed the string in a little bit but I don’t have it consistent enough to say for sure. I’ve found a bunch if ways to have the string spew out of the bottom but i’m pretty sure that’s of no help 🤣

Do you guys have issues with the yo touching your hands/fingers getting into the mount too? Or else sometimes I don’t give myself enough string for the yo to sit on, so when I do get into the mount it either touches the bottom of my hand, or I don’t have enough room to get the string fed into it.

I really need to commit myself to spending some time on this trick here over the next couple of days!

</div>

just loosen the pinch a little to let a little bit more slack out. Seems to be a fine point between having the right position and the wrong one. I’m pretty sure that the siding your nth towards the yoyo is important to how the rejection goes. I have a day off tomorrow so I’ll do a bunch more work on it and report back.

Yeah I’m finding it really tricky to get into that chopstick-ish mount without bumping my hand. Then of course I lose enough spin to make the injection not work!

Finding this one much more tricky than difficult
