Leg Wrap Trap

Leg Wrap Trapeze

The Leg Wrap Trapeze is a very popular trick, especially for freestyles on stage, and you could see Tomáš Bubák doing it several times at competitions. It is a very effective and smooth way to get from the classic Breakaway to the behind-the-back position.

Step by step

Start the Breakaway by throwing the yo-yo and step forward with your right foot. As soon as the yo-yo flies through, put your left foot forward. As soon as the yo-yo passes your left foot too, just catch the yo-yo behind your back in the trapeze and you are done.

Tips and safety

Just watch out for bruised ankles and knees – if you are just starting out with the trick, be careful.

Which yoyo should you use for advanced tricks?

For advanced tricks, an unresponsive yoyo is the best choice. Unlike beginner yoyos it does not come back on a tug – it returns with a trick called the Bind. Thanks to that it can spin much longer and handle more difficult tricks.

Features of unresponsive yoyos

  • Long spin time (Sleeper)
  • Higher stability and performance
  • Yoyo returns with the Bind trick
  • Great for competitions
