Black Hops

Single-handed string tricks. One yoyo, usually one that does NOT come back on a tug. You land it on strings and move it through different shapes. This is the biggest modern style.

How to do it

  1. Get into the starting Black Hops mount.
  2. Pop the yoyo through a series of openings in the strings.
  3. Move your hands between hops.
  4. Catch on the right string each time.
  5. Finish.

Tips

Pop straight up and high enough. The receiving string needs to be flat before the yoyo lands.

The physics

A bunch of small jumps, each landing through a small gap in the strings.
