Learn how to do expert Yo-Yo tricks with tips and techniques from a Yo-Yo expert in this free instructional video series.

Series Summary

The history of the Yo-Yo is a long and sordid tale, beginning in the Philippines sometime before 500 B.C. Once possibly used as a weapon, the Yo-Yo developed into its modern form in 1866 when it was patented under the name “whirligig”. With a ridiculous name like whirligig, it's no wonder the dizzying disks didn't take. Finally given the respectable name of Yo-Yo, the children's toy achieved ridiculous heights of popularity in the 1920's and then again in the 1960's. Advances in Yo-Yo technology in the 1990's saw yet another resurgence of Yo-Yo culture, sparking the World Yo-Yo competition held annually in Florida to showcase a variety of Yo-Yo tricks. Yo-Yo's can also be seen in film and television, though most often as weapons for small, animated children.

In this free instructional video our expert will demonstrate some very advanced Yo-Yo tricks and techniques. Now that you've mastered the basics of Yo-Yoing, it's time to move on to expert tricks like the double suicide, the under whip wrist mount and the reverse trapeze tricks.
