Offstring Bind

Offstring. The yoyo is NOT tied to the string. You throw it in the air and catch it on the string, kind of like a diabolo.

How to do it

  1. Have the yoyo spinning on the string.
  2. Make a small loop near the gap.
  3. Push the loop into the response area.
  4. Pull so the string winds around the axle.
  5. Catch the yoyo.

Tips

The yoyo has to be centered on the string before you bind.

The physics

Same idea as a normal bind: the response pads grab the loop and wind the string up.
