Man on the Flying Trapeze/ Trapeze*

Start by learning the Breakaway.  Then learn to do Around the World where the yo-yo stays in front of your body the whole time (the plane of the trick is parallel to your chest).  Now, instead of letting the yo-yo go all the way around, stick your finger out to catch the string and make the yo-yo land back on the string between your hands.

Tips:
-    Try to get your finger as close to the yo-yo as possible when you catch the string.  The more space between the yo-yo and your finger, the harder it will be to catch the yo-yo on the string.
-    This will be easier to learn with an unresponsive, Butterfly-shaped yo-yo, but is possible with just about any yo-yo.
