Trapeze

This is not an easy trick and will require some practice, but it is SO worth it. This trick is the basis for a huge number of advanced tricks.

Start the same as with the Breakaway, but instead of pulling the yo-yo back to your hand, stick the first finger of your free hand out to catch the string. The yo-yo will flip over your finger and land on the string.

Tips:
- Get your finger as close to the yo-yo as possible when you go to catch the string. The less string there is between your finger and the yo-yo, the less leeway there is for the yo-yo to miss landing on the string.
- A lot of Trans-axle yo-yos can be adjusted to not come back very easily. This is a good idea if you’re worried about the yo-yo hitting your finger.
