The Matrix

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. Start in Double or Nothing.
  2. Roll the yoyo through the strings toward your throw hand.
  3. Let it go over and under the right strings.
  4. Keep rolling until it comes out into a trapeze or similar mount.
  5. Dismount.

Tips

Learn the path slow. Keep your finger wraps in the right order.

The physics

You're un-wrapping all those strings in a controlled way. The yoyo keeps spinning, but every string it touches steals a little spin.
