Finally landed 2.5 hook! If anyone is having trouble, I found this video of Patrick Cannyā€™s freestyle to be helpful (along w/ other freestyle closeups) : [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=78tAdg57pHs](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=78tAdg57pHs) Thereā€™s a segment in his freestyle around 2:14 where he does a 2.5 hook in view. Also being used to doing 1.5 hook with both hands closer together helped as well, since with the 2.0 hooks and beyond, the hands have to be closer together. ---
