I am having trouble with the trick, I don’t know how far the yoyo has to travel, but I can do the whip, but the most hardest part for me is landing the 1.5.

Any tips?

This is the tutorial that helped me the most. That trick is funky and there is no way to do it without just trying a bunch of times. Getting the overhand plastic whip first is a good stepping stone to figuring out this trick. good luck!

I learned the trick from this tutorial but it took me a little while to figure out on which string the yoyo lands on, I learned the a whip at first but figuring where the yoyo will land took a while.Just practise It until you get it​:ocean:🌊

This is a super good tutorial and I like all the steps :fire:  
Do you think it’s easier off the pin wheel? or easier to learn that way?

Been practicing. Kinda got it. Consistency is getting better. Every-time I land it I have to stare at it for a few seconds to make sure I did it correctly. :joy:

Thank you so much for sharing this. I’ve wanted to learn this for a year. And the tutorial from the site that shall not be named was not helping me at all. But with this one i got or inn two days and it’s already starting to get semi consistent.
