The final pull ...

This is the last/biggest pull. Slow the wheel, judge the amount of clay left, pinch as much as possible and pull the clay up remembering the conical form. Notice again that my hands are touching each other.

 

After the pull gently fold/bend the top rim out/over about 3/8” as this gives the top some structure and makes it less likely to deform.
