Hi guys, I have another horizontal play issue that I don’t think has been addressed yet. After throwing the yo-yo and hitting the string, my yo-yo seems to suddenly tilt back on axis. I have the string right but if I try swinging it into mounts then the yo-yo somehow turns back on axis in the air. Thanks, Chris ---

its like, as soon as you mount move on to the next mount, if you take any time, you’re gone. when you throw horizontal, the yoyo is fighting against gravity, so you have to be fast. ---
