> [@crococorey](#): > > GregP! What a coincidence! A Superman tutorial just came out on Yotricks!! Cool! I’ll have to see how their teaching of it ties in with the way I think of it and perform it. As for “working on”… Yuuki Slack. I’ve “landed it” already, but the smoothness is highly lacking right now. ---

I’m trying to learn kwijibo the right way. Right now I just kind of pop it and try to land it on the slack, I want to learn how to do it without leaving slack (so that I can do it both responsive and unresponsive and hit it more consistently) – basepi ---

With Kwyjibo, you shouldn’t think of it as “landing” on the string at all. You chop with your forefinger and force it to pivot around and down on the string. The trick will look cleaner as a result, too. ---

Just need to get the non-throwhand movement down. It’s almost like an Eli hop, don’t want to have slack in the string. (Can’t do Eli hops either) Thanks for the pointer, though. – basepi ---
