I having a lot of trouble hand starting the yoyo. I watched Andre's video but I can't seem to get it up. It just turns in a bunch of different directions. Help! Please (I hate winding up the yoyo)

well try pushing into the string vary hard. also see if you can snap it as fast as you can and try popping it up it should grab and start to wind up. if your yo is unresponsive try binding as fast as you can. later.

keep it spinning

not sure if this will help but i find it works for me. when you go to snap the yoyo and make it spin snap your wrist as you snap. for me it helps the yoyo spin straight instead of wobbling. good luck and keep it spinning!!
