Whenever I do Gyro Flop I only get 1/2 of a flop or 1 full flop. How do you get more flops? I Plastic

Get a stronger throw. The strength of the throw directly effects your spin.

I am so proud of you for actually doing the whip. You just pull hard, not too hard, and make sure that the strings dont rub on the sides. Just make sure that the strings are only touching the bearing, and not touching the response/sides.

Or you can rub the sides to make it spin.

Throw harder to make the yoyo spin faster. After you’re on the gryo flop mount, make sure you use both of your hands to move around in forward of the circle.

Happy Throwing! =]
