Ever since I learned ripcord, I couldn’t do any boing e boings. I didn’t switch yoyos or strings. Do I have to relearn it or something? Whenever I go to a split bottom mount, I always end up doing a ripcord. And when I DO perform a boing e boing, I always miss the 2nd bounce. :o I need help please. ---

When you start your boing make sure all the string wraps are right on each other and your hands are perfectly straight vertically and horizontally. Let me know if that helps. ---

I think he means he is so used to doing ripcord, when he goes to do boing-y-boing, he automatically does ripcord. Maybe try just slowing down ---
