How To Do Hook on a Yoyo

YoyoTrick tutorial

Hook starts with the same motion as Laceration Trapeze. Instead of pushing against the upper string, let the string loop wrap around your non-throw hand finger from below and land on the yoyo.

The trick in steps

  1. Throw a Breakaway

    Throw a Breakaway.

  2. Whip the Laceration

    Stick out your index finger, pop the yoyo up, and whip the Laceration hard around that finger so the loop catches the yoyo.

  3. Catch the yoyo

    As the Laceration whips around, the string should catch the yoyo, wrapping twice around your finger.

  4. Unfold and bind

    Unfold the strings and do a Sidestyle Bind to return the yoyo to your hand.

Tips

  • Fix your string tension
  • Pop the yoyo up right next to your non-throw hand, on the non-throw hand side of your finger
  • Move your non-throw hand down with the yoyo

Common mistakes

  • Landing on the wrong string
  • Ending up in Trapeze
  • Popping the yoyo up too high
  • Popping the yoyo up too far from your non-throw hand
