" Hi! I am Tim on behalf of expertvillage.com. We will be showing you tips and techniques on how to use the yo-yo from the book, Its Yo-yo Time by Crump Jr.. In this clip, I will show how to properly throw a yo-yo down. You start with the yo-yo up about shoulder length and you are going to flick your wrist, palm is up, like that. A common mistake that people make is that they try throwing it down like this, if you want your palm up and your going to bring it up your shoulder and you need to throw it down like that. Throw it down, bring your arm up, bring your palm up again, arm up to your shoulder, you are going to throw it down straightforward, not to the side. Straightforward with your palm up and the yo-yo is going to flick over your finger down like that and then when it is down you turn your hand around. So again bring it up, down."
