3 Easy Yoyo Tricks That Look Advanced

Want to spice up your yoyo tricks?

Here are 3 easy starter yoyo tricks that look advanced. These are beginner-friendly tricks that will help build upon your control and skill on some tricks that you may already know.

You will need an automatic (responsive) yoyo to do these tricks. We recommend yoyo such as ONE or Axolotl that are responsive yet still have quite a longer spin time than other starter yoyos.

1. Dizzy Baby

Prerequisite trick: Rock The Baby

This additional step for Dizzy Baby is called a “Pinwheel”. While pinching the string with your throw hand, swing the yoyo through the triangle as many times as you would like.
This mesmerizing motion is a great way to make your Rock the Baby trick look more advanced.

2. Side to Side

Prerequisite trick: Around the World

Side to Side is a simple but effective way to make your Around the World even more flashy. It’s a great trick that helps build confidence in this motion.
Make sure you have a lot of free space around you to perform this trick.
TIP: Avoid excessive jerking and keep the motion of the swinging to both sides controlled and smooth.

3. UFO

UFO is one of the coolest looking yoyo tricks out there. It is not only easy to learn and fun to do, but it can also be a trick to easily adjust the string tension depending on the direction it is spinning in.

If your responsive yoyo has a fingerspin hub, you can then try the DNA trick! Instead of pinching the string, place your non-throw hand finger under the fingerspin hub. Then guide the yoyo up and back to your hand.
