Split Bottom Mount

Split Bottom Mount is a trick that gets you into a position (mount) that is extremely important for most subsequent tricks in frontstyle such as Mach 5, Barrel Rolls, Boingy.

Throw the yoyo in front of you over your left index finger. Keep it about halfway up the string, then throw the yoyo over your right index finger onto the string. You will get this weird triangle and that is the Split Bottom Mount.
