Wrist Mount

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. Throw a breakaway.
  2. Wrap the string around your throw hand wrist using the standard wrist mount entry.
  3. Open up the strings with your other hand.
  4. Land the yoyo on the right middle string.
  5. Keep the wrist loop open.
  6. Exit by reversing or using a known dismount.

Tips

The loop on your wrist should be loose enough to move but not floppy. Don't let it close up.

The physics

Your wrist works like an extra finger, giving the strings a third place to attach.
