Tower to Ping Pong- Two Great Tastes that Go Great Together!

[Brad]

Hmm stuck...

on the part of the video where it says "the easy part" (2:08) - lol yeah that's where I'm stuck.  Every time I try to pop it over the top and onto the string, I can't hit just the front/bottom string.  Am I supposed to pinch or something??

Anyone?  I worked on this one several weeks ago and gave up; tried again last night, still not sure what I'm doing wrong.  I can't keep the little "x" where the strings are crossed from sliding out of the way when I try to roll it over, so I always end up on the wrong string (well, all of the strings usually).

well after the twisting your finger in part you need to do a trapeze motion and swing the yoyo over your nonthrowhand pointer and land the yoyo on the bottom string

I know this may sound stupid to the better yo-yo players but how do you get the yo-yo to land on the string after the first curl and just before the second curl to make the tower? You say its easy but I don't which string to land on and how to swing it to get it there. Help me PLEASE!

Same problem I had that I posted about above.  As soon as I try to swing it over, the string I'm trying to land on slides over, and I miss and hit the other strings.

Try using your throw hand thumb to push the bottom string forward a bit. That should make landing a lot easier. (It did for me)

thanks you don't know how much that has helped

Next question how do you get the yoyo to bounce back and forth properly?
