Still challenging, but I’m starting to land it more and more! Sometimes 3 or 5 times a throw! Quite a few first try’s! At least it’s giving me the chance to figure out where or what I’m doing right and wrong. What a crazy long road to semi success. It somehow seems to help my brother to ninja vanish I had totally dialed a few years back, but had been failing and taking a few tries to land more recently. ---

This might help someone struggling.. I’ve sorted this one out pretty much. For me I found I have to keep my NTH just on the inside edge, pretty close and about 4-5 inches below the yoyo when I pop it up. I found I was moving my NTH out or away from me and failing, where if I kept it still it would land. I guess I do the outward push with my TH as described in the tutorials. Lastly if I throw the sleeper and just take a breath before my attempt I have a much higher success rate. I am now able to land it with most any throw on my first attempt. So very satisfying. Good luck, I hope this helps. [Previous page](https://forums.yoyoexpert.com/t/need-help-with-brent-stole/58741.md?page=1)
