Brain Twister

Basic / Responsive. The starter style. You use a yoyo that comes back when you tug the string.

How to do it

  1. Throw a sleeper.
  2. Stick out the index finger of your other hand in front of the string.
  3. Swing the yoyo forward and over that finger.
  4. Land the yoyo on the string between your hands.
  5. Roll the yoyo forward over your finger again and again.
  6. Stop or do it backwards.
  7. Bring the yoyo back.

Tips

Keep your fingers level. The roll should be smooth and round, not jerky.

The physics

The yoyo flips around your finger like a tiny Ferris wheel while it keeps spinning on its own.
