If you're really working hard on your looping
tricks what you're going to find, eventually,
is that your string is going to get really
messed up.
There are a couple of tricks that you can
use that actually look really cool that also
help you adjust your string, and these are
called UFOs.
To do a UFO, instead of throwing the yoyo
in the conventional way, what you actually
want to do is throw the yoyo in such a way
that the yoyo ends up sleeping parallel to
the ground.
If you throw the yoyo off to the right it
is going to tighten the string.
If you throw it off to the left it is going
to loosen the string.
To do this trick you want to start by throwing
you yoyo so that it ends up spinning almost
parallel to the ground.
You actually want the string to spin out over
the yoyo.
To achieve that, while it's spinning you just
put your hand right over the top.
To bring the yoyo back to your hand you need
to swing it out and then pull your hand back
in.
As soon as the yoyo gets parallel to your
hand it's going to come right back.
The same thing is true when you throw it to
the left across your body.
Get the yoyo sleeping, get your hand over
the top, and then get the yoyo parallel to
your hand; it's going to come right back.
Those are your UFOs.
If you want to add a little bit of style to
it, when you throw your yoyo across your body
you can even pick up the string.
This is called a Sleeping Beauty.
That's just another way to loosen the string
very quickly.
Crowds really love it.
If you really want to get into your two-handing,
or even into just any type of looping these
tricks make it a whole lot easier.
