You pinch the string, then create a loop on the side toward you. Then you land the yoyo in the loop from the side away from you.

What you’re doing is you’re catching the front half of the yo-yo with the loop you make. You need to land the back half (the one closer to you) of the yo-yo on the loop.

If that doesn’t make sense, I can try to get a video up upon request.
