You should be able to push the Yoyo forward a bit and pull the string with the thumb into the wall of the Yoyo and it’ll pop around. Lemme know what’s not working right, if you want any help. Good luck!

OK. For the life of me, after watching 3 videos, still can’t figure out the first hop of Kwijibo. HELP!

Oh okay yeah I had to watch the trick again lol you do a trapeze and Eli hop and cut your throw hand index right into the string and under the Yoyo as you cross nth under throw hand. It lands cross armed so it’s not a 1.5 until you roll and uncross your arms. You’ve already watched tuts it sounds like so I won’t send a vid but hopefully a text explanation might help lemme know if you still can’t get it and I’ll make a vid.

Eh here’s a vid I did think of something that might help it’s like if you were to go into 1.5 mount but not go into the top string and then cross under. Try that maybe it’ll help you understand what to aim for

Never tried to do a whip catch with a top because I figured it was beyond my pay grade, but I started trying this week to do this trick, and I have made it to the first whip catch a few times today. It’s frustrating but addictive at the same time.

Beefhook. Watched a couple other tutorials over the past couple weeks and wasn’t able to land it a single time. Watched this tutorial and now actually get what I’m supposed to do and have successfully landed it 3x in a short session

Yoooo!!! Let’s gooooo!!! Beefhook is the trick I struggled to learn more than anything else I think but I really do think the trick is worth the grind like it feels super satisfying to land and enables some other cool things conceptually. Congrats yo! Definitely one of my favorite tricks.

Still struggling with the beef hook here. Landed it 2 or 3 times in hours of trying. And still can’t catch what I actually did to do it.

I’m trying to get this one down:

But the string is not popping off from the rejection, it just bumps a bit and stays on my wrist. I will keep trying I guess.
