Drop in the Bucket

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 a bucket mount, often from Jade Whip or wrist tricks.
  2. Open up the bucket shape with both hands.
  3. Let the yoyo sit on the inner bottom string.
  4. Hop, roll, or dismount through the opening.

Tips

Keep the bucket nice and wide. A skinny bucket snags.

The physics

The yoyo rests on an inside string while the outside strings shape the bucket.
