      You're not supposed to tie it either, you're supposed to untwist the end of the string and just place it around the bearing. Since offstring yoyos are built the same otherwise then by putting the string on it it should work like a "regular" yoyo.

      It doesn’t have a string at all. Has implies the yoyo has a string as a part of it. They’re two separate objects rn. Like a tireless car. A car functions when the tire is connected, and therefore is a car. But when the tire is just there, where it should be, but not connected, it’s now useless.

      It's a yoyo because there is a ball bearing and response pads inside which allow the yoyo to spin for ages with a single throw and go back to the hand when you "bind" it. This yoyo style is called 4A or "Offstring".

    • @suburiboy

  • @diorsawaaj
    @diorsawaaj 8 років тому +77

    This isn't all of yoyoing. There are 5 styles of yoyoing:
    1A: String Tricks
    These are tricks that involve the yoyo landing on string segments. The yoyo is attached to a string, and that string is connected to your finger.
    2A: Dual-handed Looping
    This is a style of yoyoing that involves loops, flips, stalls, Around the Worlds, and wraps, but with both hands. One of the more difficult styles, but one of the most thrilling to behold
    3A: Dual-handed String Tricks
    The most difficult of the 5 main styles. This is the same as 1A, but you have two yoyos instead of one. It is considered the most complicated because a lot of the tricks involve twisting the strings together in some way.
    4A: Offstring
    One of the easier styles. Commonly mixed up with the Diabolo. THIS IS NOT A DIABOLO. The string is not connected to the yoyo, allowing you to manipulate the yoyo in mid-air.
    5A: Freehand/Counterweight
    The string is connected to the yoyo, but the string is not connected to your hand. Instead,

    • @diorsawaaj
      @diorsawaaj 8 років тому +12

      a counterweight is used. This allows you to perform some very impressive tricks, but one of the most dangerous styles.
      If you are a non-yoyoer, instead of arguing with one, please do some research on the modern yoyo. Look at some competitions. Look at some yoyo trick tutorials. You'll be amazed at how far the sport of yoyoing has come. PLEASE DO SOME RESEARCH BEFORE SAYING ANYTHING. Thank you.

It was a lot of fun, though it took some practice. They never really caught on, though. I'm glad to see a related toy/skill set catching on.

      Not really, because the string that you use in off-string yo yo-ing is attached to your hand and you can bring it back to your hand. Diablos, or if you prefer Chinese yo yos, are manipulated using string tied to sticks. The difference is subtle, but there.
