About this trick
Merry Christmas, players.  Follow has been one of the most requested tutorials since the creation of Rethinkyoyo, so I thought it fitting to have it be the tutorial released this fine Christmas weekend.  Consider it my gift to you, all you persistent throwers; you're the only reason this tutorial is up on the site right now.

The reason I was hesitant to release this tutorial is simply that it's incredibly difficult to learn.  It's not hard to explain, exactly, but nothing any teacher can say will make anyone "magically" have this trick down.  It just requires practice, plain and simple.  However, I talked myself into thinking that maybe my explanation of the trick will at least spur on some up-and-coming yoyoers to join in the practicing of Follow.  It's a great trick, worth learning.  I remember I had a ton of trouble with it for years.  Just keep at it, it will come in time.

Man, this video rocks! It is one of your best tutorials! You also did well to chose a black dress and a yellow string, it is very clear how you move your hands to do the trick! And you have a nice Christmas tree too!
If you would like to help me i tell you my problem with this trick. When i move my hand around the yoyo, the slack of the string instead of turning around, just wrap on the palm of my hand. How could i resolve this problem? Meanwhile i will study the video with attention and i will keep practicing! Merry Christmas to you and your great family!

Thanks Kyle, great tutorial for a great trick.
I might offer this timeworn advice Jekko, Follow will take a LOT of practice. I know exactly what you are talking about with the string wrapping around the palm, happens to us all Id imagine, just keep at it bro you will get it.
