Binds

Binds are tricks that make an unresponsive yo-yo return to your hand. By throwing a special loop into the yo-yo, you create friction between the string and the bearing, causing the yo-yo to start returning.

How to Practice Binds

Here are a few tips to make learning easier:

  • First, learn the basic Bind to make the yo-yo return reliably.
  • Pay attention to the correct amount of string in the loop.
  • Practice inserting the loop into the yo-yo accurately.
  • Don't pull the Bind too hard – the yo-yo could return too quickly.
  • Gradually try more advanced variations and combinations.

Which Yo-Yo Should You Use for Binds?

Binds are designed for unresponsive yo-yos, which don't return with a regular tug. A quality bearing and properly adjusted gap will allow you to perform Binds reliably and smoothly.

What Will You Practice?

  • Yo-yo return control
  • String precision
  • Hand movement timing
  • Smooth trick finishes
