How to Do the Ladder Escape Yo-Yo Trick

ANDRE BOULAY: This is Ladder Escape part two. Let me show you real quick, this is the whole trick of Ladder Escape. We are just right now at the mount part of it, so let me show you real quick how we get there. So real quick, it should be this far, it should be at the Ladder Mount right there. First step of the Ladder Mount. You want to pop it off the Ladder Mount, open up this triangle and you're actually going to pop the yo-yo up through that triangle there, so from here we pop it up through that triangle just like so. From there, you're going to pop it up onto this string like that, you're going to let it swing back over and onto this string and from there, that's actually where part three hits. Let me show you real quick again with that looks like in a little more slow motion. So from here, from the Ladder Mount, you're going to pop it up through this triangle just like so, keep your thumb and your pointer finger in this loop over here and what you want to do is swing the yo-yo up onto it just like that. It almost actually looks like part of Hour Glass as you're coming up and swinging on. From here, you want to put your finger underneath as its going and you want to land the yo-yo back on the string just like that and this where part three begins, so one more time, let me just get out of it. You start with your Ladder Mount just like so, pop up through this triangle, it's farthest from you, pop up through, use your thumb and your pointer that open up this part like that, pop it up underneath and on just like that and that's the end of part two.
