Just watch the video a few more times.  Get the movements down.

It takes a lot of practice.

I hope this helps!

Here is a tip when trying to get into a split bottom mount. Use the thumb of your throw hand to keep the string out of your way. This was my problem when I was learning this mount that other string would get in the way. Good luck and keep practicing.

Just try anything that's comfortable with you to get the yo-yo to land on the bottom string correctly.

After that it's mainly just practice..

Interesting...  I agree with fellavader...  Getting the string out of the way is my big problem.  I tried the thumb thing and it was too complicated for me.

My solution is to curl my string finger in (like a fist) and push my pointer finger into the string as it comes down.  Curling the finger gets the string out of the way and pushing the string hand pointer in helps guide the yoyo to the string... 

Try it and see if it helps.

Practice is the key.

I used to had the same problem as you. You need slack, practice, and not too much of a space on the mount, like trapeze. You can sort of inch the space bigger once it's landed.

It's a yoyo!  Fun.  Not like working with cold fusion.
But I would never use it to clean or lube my precious 10balls.

Make sure you have the string attached to your middle finger and not your index.....

I had trouble learning the split bottom mount until someone told me:
Use the thumb of your throw hand to keep the string out of your way.

You mean the string loop is tied around your index finger? That's bad; it's supposed to be around your middle finger.
