Spinning Tricks - Single Looped String (pt 3)

Flying Saucer

This is a flashy adjustment trick. Throw a spinner at a 45 degree angle diagonally across your body.

While the yo-yo is on its side, catch the string above the yo-yo with the other hand, lift to yo-yo to a level above the yo-yo hand, and release.

The yo-yo will wind back to your hand. Note: Throw the yo-yo to the left to loosen and the right to tighten the string.

Break Away

Make a muscle with the yo-yo on your shoulder. Throw a spinner out to that side.

Swing the yo-yo so that it rotates in front of you from shoulder to shoulder.

When it reaches your other shoulder, give the yo-yo a quick tug and bring it back to your hand.

Man on the Trapeze

Hold the opposite hand waist-high with the index finger pointed forward. Make a muscle with the yo-yo on your shoulder.

Throw a spinner to that side and swing the yo-yo across your body and over your extended finger so that the yo-yo hits the string about 1-2 yo-yo lengths from your finger.

To return the yo-yo to your hand, pull the extended finger out of the string.
