If you got stuck I am happy to help. Took me a bit to analyze all the movements in slomo but I can do the trick even if it does not look very flowy. And also @mable 🚀 rocked it nicely and can for sure help. ---

“I don’t know if I’ll be able to get it this week…this looks preeeeetttty hard…but let’s give it a shot! And if I get this…you gotta…” But seriously, this trick is dope and I do have a question—I think I’m up to the hop and recapture part, but I can’t tell exactly what’s happening. I think the yoyo goes up, off the string at kind of a weird angle, then I keep my hand above it and come down and do that recapture slice around the outside and under. I get that I need to get this one string off so that I can get the yo over my throw hand like I can’t just roll over from the position I’m landing in post double unroll (if I’m doing this right), but what string segment am I aiming to get in the gap? ---

The string directly attached to your TH middle finger. For the final GT there’s actually a lot of ways to do it if you’re struggling with getting it behind your wrist, all you’re doing for that is just passing your TH underneath the yoyo. I tried to do all the steps slowly in this video to make it more clear ---

Awesome yeah that helps! The step where it was hanging especially made it clear. I haven’t gotten to the triangles yet but I think if I can get this recap part figured out I should be in the clear :+1: ---
