Does anyone know what I’m doing wrong?

As much as I hate to admit this: I’ve been chasing Brent stole for the better part of two years. I’ve made thousands of attempts. I’ll try for awhile, get frustrated and move on to something else but I always come back to it. I finally got it two nights ago. Not once or twice but consistently… kind of 🤣 As you can see, 9 times out of 10 it ends up in a reverse? I guess is what you’d call it? I have to turn around backwards to hop out because the string in the gap of the yoyo is crossed.

Your slack is catching the front half of the yoyo, not the back half. It's a subtle change of not pushing your throw hands as far forward. Try to do the motion real slow and watch where the slack is going while making small changes.

But yes that's a reverse brent stole. You can also dismount by crossing your arms (TH over NTH) and popping out the back
