I’m still not hitting Banana Turnover. Sure, I can do the turnover, but then I usually miss the horizontal trapeze. And if I hit that, I miss the bind. I’m a mess. ---

The matrix I have all the individual parts down just making them two smoothly together is the hard part (I’m also doing the harder version where you pop the yoyo out hard over the throw hand and back around), I know it seems lame, but that’s what I’m working on, just spent an hour on it and I can land it but not as many times out of 10 as I’d like nor is it looking nice I reckon it looks something like the aftermath of a bull in a glass yoyo shop. ---

> [@Tyjet66](#): > > Working on Double Or Nothing and the Matrix, still. I’m beginning to question if it’s worth just doing one trick over and over until you master it, or if I should branch out some. no! Just learn how to do some different tricks. Then you can change what to practice. ---

> [@Poupou](#): > > Boingy boing. After realizing that I wasn’t doing it properly when I came to boingy boing down under. Any tips? Do a bunch of barrel rolls first to shorten the string then do boings, it’ll make it so much easier… Like 5-7 should do the trick. And then you can slowly progress from there. If you still can’t do it after doing 5-7 barrel rolls, try to just make the yoyo bounce back and forth between the strings very slightly, don’t go all out boings, just tiny ones, just to get the yoyo moving, and get the rhythm down. Once you get that you can increase the length between boings and reduce the amount of barrel rolls you do until you can do the whole trick full speed without any barrel rolls. ---

> [@crococorey](#): > > Are you still making a tutorial for boingy boing? Yea… I’ll pretty much be restating what I said below. Should be up on Thursday. School started 2 weeks ago so I probably won’t be making a tutorial every week. Hopefully I’ll get one in every other week. Got lots of stuff planned, a few of my own tricks, and a couple tricks that I don’t think there are enough tutorials for or aren’t very well known. One of them’s something I recently learned… FINGER SPINS, YESSSS!!! There’s like next to no tutorials on finger spins… [Previous page](https://forums.yoyoexpert.com/t/what-trick-are-you-working-on-pre-2025/57231.md?page=6) [Next page](https://forums.yoyoexpert.com/t/what-trick-are-you-working-on-pre-2025/57231.md?page=8)
