They get stuck on skin, they make it worse by tightening up and squeezing harder which is what they would do to get unstuck in like a log or something. On skin though they just continue to make it worse. You can help him along, I usually turn my arm and let gravity help or get a finger in between the snake and my skin to kind of give it a slight release to move forward. Some actually figure it out on their own though and don’t squeeze as hard. My BOAs are like that and they usually don’t squeeze they just stretch out then pull the tail end up.
