when I do a wire walker the top just stops at the end. Am I supposed to pop it up at the end? Any suggestions would be appreciated.

At the end of the walk the tip is bound, with the string going to the free hand going under, so you have to pop it up to release it.  
It is a good idea to release the tension of the string as it gets closer to the receiving hand. That will keep the spin.
