I followed all the steps that Andre shows, but it just looks all tangled, and i can’t follow part 2 because of it… PS. I can post pics of what my messed up ladder mount looks like if it would help. ---

> [@Johnny rocks!!!](#): > > i did exactly what this guy said and it still looks all twisted. ☹ ☹ ☹ ☹ I just figured it out yesterday and I think I had the same problem! Following JM’s video, after you’ve got it in a trapeze and his bro situation, you pop the yo-yo off the far string to the INSIDE, so it goes between the two strings, then bring it back and over top of both strings. Swing it up into a trapeze around your freehand pointer and you should be there. I’m just going off memory since I don’t have a yo-yo handy, but I’m pretty sure that’ll get you into a ladder mount. I also thought the video in this thread was really helpful: > **[SOMEONE PLZ HELP ME WITH THE ESCAPEING OF THE LADDER!!!
