Yes, Owen is right. You have to bend your finger and pinch the trapeze string and drop the wrap around your finger. To do multiple, you have to just keep bending and unbending your finger.

The tricky thing with these is learning to keep the string and yoyo aligned so you don’t get tilt or low spin times.
