About this trick
This is a great introductory whip because it's fairly simple to learn.  In my opinion, it's even easier than Plastic Whip.  And besides that, it's also a pretty cool-looking trick with quite a few things you can do with it.

Some people say that before you do the whip, you should twist your throwhand in towards yourself around the string.  I don't really notice very much difference this makes, which is why I didn't put it in the actual tutorial, but you can still try it if
you'd like.

Instead of dismounting you can go into a green triangle by underpassing the yoyo with the far side of the string going around your wrist. After the underpass you drop the sling from your hand onto the string and end up in a GT.

Thanks for taking the time to share your experience with people learning this trick! Yeah, that is definitely a flashy way to get into a Green Triangle.

Hey Jack, unfortunately, no. Simply putting your hand through the Trapeze loop will actually not get you into the same mount. It will look similar, but you wouldn't be able to do the same tricks from it.

Umm... you could try whipping the string onto your freehand index finger and then simply mounting the yoyo onto the string closest to you from there. Not sure... I would honestly just recommend practicing the whip. It's really not too hard once you really practice it. Good luck.
