Your index fingers should be pointing forward, not curled toward you.
From memory trying to visualize itā¦ For the first picture you stick your TH index in the space your thumbs are in, curl it down and slide it outside the string that forms the triangle. Your NTH index, just point it down and slide it left so thereās just a loop around it. Point both index fingers forward.
Drop thumbs for second picture. Drop TH index finger for triangle.

Right on man! Thank you for this write up!! I hadnāt even noticed I was curling my finger in!
haha anyone else having this issue? Where you keep getting really small things wrong with this trick? Step by step Iāve been getting small details wrongā¦and step by step Iām having to correct them. Thank goodness for Moons and Ryan who have been helping me out all week figure things out!
I actually think this has been a really good learning experience for me this week though and am happy with how things are going with it. It helps that itās such a fun trick to work on!

Dude thatās awesome. The bucket and getting the pictures right were pretty challenging. I donāt think Iāve ever watched a yo-yo video so many times before.

Close enough guys?
@MoonageMin @ryanmcg
Itās rough, too fast and not pretty. Plus the video quality is poor for some reason.
Not sure if Iāll make another vid by tomorrow or not.

Hell yeah man!
Thereās SO many small steps in this trick and just getting 1 tiny thing wrong messes the whole thing up. Iāve sunk hours into this trick this weekā¦itās been very challenging.
I was having a blast working on it up till this morning. I spent 40 minutes slamming my head against the wall trying to figure out what I was doing wrong with the pictures! lol
I think I pretty much have it at this point. I just need to smooth it out with practice and time now.

You got it! I didnāt see any mistakes, so all that frustrating work must have paid off. Hope the bricks you slammed your head against didnāt do any permanent damage 
Nice job man!

Nicely done. Very nice bucket landing, too. Pictures were fineāthe original is really hard to tell exactly how theyāre supposed to look anyway.
