Nah, I’ve gotten it about 10 times so far. I just need to work on getting more consistent. Thanks for offering though ☺

I’m working on wormhole. I’m struggling with the 2nd forward roll (It’s like I don’t have enough room to do the roll because my yo-yo, hands, and the string are all clumped together). I think it’s because I lower my hands and use my arms to swing the yo-yo forward.

Same happens to me. Just play with lengths of string before you do rolls. You’ll get it.

I’m slow with learning tricks.

Lately I’ve been working on my chopsticks boingy boing aka “protrusion” combo, smoothing out the part where you alternate the chopsticks hand from thumb on top to thumb on bottom, letting the yoyo pass through both configurations.

It’s funny because the regular boingy boing is one of those tricks I didn’t like for a long time because I didn’t think it looked very cool. But the chopsticks boing was another story - infinitely cooler :wink:

What’s most frustrating about it is that the first time I tried, after having skipped this one in frustration months ago, I did it effortlessly! But I haven’t been able to hit it since. Argh!

That one give nearly everyone trouble. But it sure looks easy, don’t it?! haha

My advise is slow down, relax, and adjust your plane on how the yoyo might be tilting or changing axis. Just keep at it. Just relax while finding the rythem. Its alot slower than you might first think. 🙂 Good luck!

It took me a solid evening to get it. Ive hit it and bound out about 5 times. Getting to the first toss set up is failry easy, the first slack toss I hit 80% of the time, but Im still learning the finesse of the second toss. Its not crazy, but its not the easiest either. 🙂 Perfect for where Im at on the path. Heck it took me a week to get Rancid Milk down and I still flub it up from time to time. 🙂 So i would say its easier that Rancid Milk? (maybe? Difficulty is so subjective.

Try it tho! Its worth the effort, looks and feels GREAT
