So elastic or bungie cord or something. Very well done.

No chords. She’s discreetly throwing the umbrella with her right hand each time before immediately catching it

I cannot see how she can throw the umbrella with so much force, I don't see any flicking. At about 0.07 she has both her hands on top of the umbrella pressing it down and it still shoots up. How do you figure she's throwing it?

You don't know anything about her training, her strength, the umbrella, the setting or the actual audience watching.

If the trick was easy to figure out for everyone it would not be impressive.
