This one. And it is a pain in the… I can’t land the triangle consistantly. Most of the time, I’ll get a string mess and the yoyo just dies.

yeah. I can land it on the string consistently but when I get to the bouncing, the yoyo binds itself back up. ---

I just recently discovered that as you slide your finger along the string approaching the catch, if you give a quick and slight downward push on the string, it kinda just slings it right into place. ---

To make sure. The yo-yo won’t continue resting in the trapeze without snagging? This could be technique or the yo-yo. If it is super responsive like a looper or something, it can be very snaggy with string in the gap…period. So that’s one possibility. ---

I’ve not tried one of these but I have seen them used to do some pretty impressive string tricks so I’m mostly certain it’s not the yo-yo. But it’s still possible. Upon landing you want to have your setup looking kinda like a check mark but more level. You want to make sure your strings are tight without sag in them. Sag can become slack in the gap which will cause response. I feel like practice will show continuous improvement for you. It’s a deceptively easy trick. It’s more difficult than it seems, but once you get it, you get it. Also, if you are getting “bounce” you may try a lighter throw.
