Why? Is the other yoyo doing a gyro flop or something getting into the brain twister, unless you’re doing it into a front style bind which is wrong

Learn anything from [Rethinkyoyo.com](http://Rethinkyoyo.com), pretty complex( not too hard) and sometimes long combos.  
Also look up Wilson’s trick called Electric Balogna, it’s LONG.

I either miss or if I do land it the yoyos always crash together, my hand placement is probably wrong or something.

The mounts not that interesting to me anyways so I’m not too worried about learning it ATM

Having issues with my jade and iron whips. Always had issues with iron whips, but once I got jades down I thought I was fine. For some reason I end in a reverse trapeze nearly every time. Pretty sure it wouldn’t be tension. I’ve been at 100% neutral, a little over and a little under and I still end the same way. Also just having typical issues with landing iron whip, correctly or not, but that’s nothing new for me, but if anyone has any tips I’d appreciate it!

I have been working on Plastic Whip for months. Finally landed it about three weeks ago but could only land it about once in 100 tries. When I received my Cypher I tried it right away and I started to landing it about half of the tries.

I just learned this trick the other day. I can land it 99% of the time. I figured out a couple things that help. 1) 100% polyester string whips way faster than cotton. 2) bring your hand down below the yoyo as it pops up. Do it super fast and it works almost every time. Then go right into an one handed bind.

Good luck

I already am using polyester but I will work on the rest of your suggestions.
