You, Panda Joe, are a great teacher. You break down the trick into very clear steps. And as a bonus, you are extremely entertaining. I’m going to learn that trick and make a video of it. For me this is massively ambitious. But you make it look possible. ---

Seriously guys, when you look at it from the side, you can clearly see that it’s not metal rimmed. And he does not use two different yoyos, he’s using a FHZ with two different caps. Addment: You guys really need to watch the whole video. ---

Hmm stuck… on the part of the video where it says “the easy part” (2:08) - lol yeah that’s where I’m stuck. Every time I try to pop it over the top and onto the string, I can’t hit just the front/bottom string. Am I supposed to pinch or something?? ---

Every time I try to pop it over the top and onto the string, I can’t hit just the front/bottom string. Am I supposed to pinch or something?? Anyone? I worked on this one several weeks ago and gave up; tried again last night, still not sure what I’m doing wrong. I can’t keep the little “x” where the strings are crossed from sliding out of the way when I try to roll it over, so I always end up on the wrong string (well, all of the strings usually). ---

well after the twisting your finger in part you need to do a trapeze motion and swing the yoyo over your nonthrowhand pointer and land the yoyo on the bottom string ---

I know this may sound stupid to the better yo-yo players but how do you get the yo-yo to land on the string after the first curl and just before the second curl to make the tower? You say its easy but I don’t which string to land on and how to swing it to get it there. Help me PLEASE! ---

You say its easy but I don’t which string to land on and how to swing it to get it there. Help me PLEASE! Same problem I had that I posted about above. As soon as I try to swing it over, the string I’m trying to land on slides over, and I miss and hit the other strings. ---

Try using your throw hand thumb to push the bottom string forward a bit. That should make landing a lot easier. (It did for me) :wink: [Next page](https://forums.yoyoexpert.com/t/tower-to-ping-pong-two-great-tastes-that-go-great-together/3108.md?page=2)
