OFFSTRING (4A) TRICK LIST

 

Throw a Forward Pass Mount. The yo-yo will be in an Open Hold with each hand holding one end of the string. Toss yo-yo off the string, above your head, and catch the yo-yo back in an Open Hold. (Alternatively, you may grab both ends of the string with one hand and spread the ring with your Freehand index finger forming a Ring Hold. From this hold you may "change lanes" during the tosses, if you wish, and catch the yo-yo on either the top or bottom string segment.) Toss and catch for total of 5 or more reps. Wind string and catch yo-yo.

Throw a forward pass mount. create a loop of string with your throw hand. Toss the yoyo in the air and grind on the pointer finger of your freehand. Toss the yoyo into the air and perform a whip catch. Return to hand in any way.

 

Throw Forward Pass Mount. The yo-yo will be in an Open Hold with each hand holding one end of the string. Swing yo-yo so it starts to rotate around one hand (the Throwhand), release the other end of the string, like a Suicide, and grab string with your Freehand as it completes the rotation to complete the first rep. Perform a total of 3 or more reps. Wind string and catch yo-yo.

 

Throw a forward pass mount across your body. Place your leg over the string and toss from one side to the other(inside to outside or outside to inside is ok). Perform 5 reps and return to hand in any way.

 

Throw a forward pass mount across your body and create a solid loop w/ your throw hand. Create a "rolling star" mount in any way. Orbit the yoyo around the segment on one pointer finger and continue around the opposite pointer in a figure eight(or infinity) motion. Repeat the orbits 5 times and return to your hand in any way.

 

Throw Forward Pass Mount. The yo-yo will be in an Open Hold with each hand holding one end of the string. Grab both ends of the string with one hand and form a ring. Spread the ring with your Freehand index finger forming a Ring Hold. With a vertical Boingy-Boingy type motion toss the yo-yo from the bottom segment of the Ring Hold to the top segment. Switch hands back and forth as in a Pop n Fresh with your Freehand going over your Throwhand just as the yo-yo hits the top string segment. Each rep consist of one pop with hands uncrossed followed by a pop with hands crossed. Complete 6 pops for a total of 3 reps. Wind string and catch yo-yo. String hit misses or extra string hits without switching hands will be considered as a miss.

 

Throw a forward pass mount and create a loop w/ your throw hand. Toss the yoyo up and catch it on the other segment. This should put the yoyo between the segments and create a twist in the string. Spread the segments, pull the strings and tilt your hands to the throw side to flop the yoyo 180 degrees. Return the yoyo to your hand in any way.

 

Throw a forward pass mount and create a loop of string with your throw hand. Throw the yoyo directly into horizontal boingy boingy and perform a minimum of three (3) reps(two bounces is one rep). Continue to boingy and rise the boing into a vertical boing. perform a minimum of three (3) reps of vertical boingy boingy(one up bounce and one down bounce is one rep). return the yoyo to your hand in any way.

 

Throw Forward Pass Mount. The yo-yo will be in an Open Hold with each hand holding one end of the string. Now hold string in either an Open Hold or a Ring Hold.

Wind string and catch yo-yo.

 

Throw Forward Pass Mount. The yo-yo will be in an Open Hold with each hand holding one end of the string. Grab both ends of the string with one hand and form a ring. Spread the ring with your Freehand index finger and toss the yo-yo out of the Ring Hold and catch it back in the hold with an "Over Whip" just like you would perform an Iron Whip catch. No "Under Whip" catches will be allowed. Repeat once more. Wind string and catch yo-yo. You may catch the yo-yo on either side of the ring (i.e. lane changes allowed.)
