Yoyo Bind Theory - The Truth Behind What Makes Binds Work. 

Why did you comment on your own video 3 years after you made it?

Is yoyok1 is responsive yoyo

Are all magic yo-yo responsive

Me too

Yes you are

Omg yessss lol

Lol I love his videos! XD

Yes

throwning, UP AT THIS GUYS TERRIBLE VIDEO AMIRITE?!?!??!?!?

I thought the exact same reference!!! Couldn’t have been more perfect

good one

Jossian Caraballo hahaha that's right team Peniz! Boozingle hahahahahahahahahha *laugh tracks*

My magic yoyo k1 is unresponsive but sometimes when i bind it it goes back up and sometimes it dosent i dont know why im confused 😡

Jossian Caraballo you need to stop

*_BA DUM TSH_*

herro

+Imperator381 We do have other theory videos in mind, and we plan to tackle about anything we think we can in a way that is both accurate and useful.

+Nick Antonizick Thanks!

So true!

+Michael Pate Happy to help!

+Bhagwad Park Thanks. We did learn a lot, and the positive reception this video has had has gotten us excited about pursuing other yoyo "theory" videos. :D

+Jared Worth Thanks. It was certainly more work to put together than anything we have attempted before. I hope it ends up becoming a solid resource for the yoyo world.

+Levi Barton Thanks!

+Jack Ripper Thanks!

We are still working on it.

Glad it was helpful!

Instead of taking the alpha red pill you took yopha pill :)

+Paul Zorovich Thanks!

Awesome!

Thanks!

+WhiteViper On a responsive yoyo two things are happening. One, the string touches the response system when you pull on the string, because the string flexes inside the yoyo and touches it. Second, the bearings on most responsive yoyos do not spin as freely as unresponsive bearings, so the outer race of the bearing will also spin the same direction of the yoyo when it is not weighed down (i.e. when you pull it up) so the outer race also pulls the string around, and when enough string is touching the response system it finishes winding up.

+supersmashsam Thanks. On the "throwing the string into the gap" idea, however, it would not be too great an exaggeration to say that we made this video to put that idea completely to rest. In our view it is not good for beginners or experienced players to throw the string into the gap. The main reason being, for the basic binds it is always better to throw the string on the opposite side of the yoyo to avoid a snag. Since it is the act of changing the level of your hands, and not the throwing of the tail, that allows you to feel the friction point between the string and the response pads, it seems to me that it is not helpful in any sense to throw the string into the gap. It sounds like you have taught a few people to bind yourself, which is cool. If you get a chance, try teaching a player or two to bind without throwing the string into the gap and see if it is any easier or not for them to get the general idea. I would love to hear how it goes.

+yotricks I have to admit that one of the problems that beginners encounter when learning to bind is that they focus too much on that "throwing" word and drop the string too fast instead of waiting and feeling the friction. So it's probably a good idea to ditch the term "throw" and focus more on changing the level of their hands. When you start learing to bind however, you don't necessarily have a very good and fast throw yet, so there is often a need to exagerate the movement by using an extra long tail, or by crossing the strings over the gap, which leads to tail wrapping and snagging. But I think that's part of the learning process. As you progess however, it is very important to correct this, especially if you want to learn advanced binds such as those that use whips and for regens. This last point was shown excellently in your video. Thanks for the response!

+Alex Garcia Thanks!

Glad to hear it payed off!

Thanks!

You should give it a go. You might love it

NERF THIS

James Conrad dollar tree yoyo

GuitarboyLemee no

they're pretty good for a cheap starter

+alex A. Thanks!

+Marcus Hambright We do have a few more theory videos in mind, but they take a very long time to write and film, so I don't think we will be releasing another any time soon.

Yes

Sure thing!

Yep still can't figure out "front binds" they are all taught from a breakaway throw from the side...

Me

Can you bind a aluminum yoyo

+MeditationGamers Macro lenses.

Nathan Martinez lol 😂😂

congrats, youre the 100000000000000000000000000000th person to make this joke

@@jeanskipper6445 I would like to thank the academy for this award

+Alexander Recinos We used a hubstack for one of the shots and a Civility for the other shot.

+YoYo Life I'm pretty sure it's a Daydream

When I said it does not make any difference, I meant they can both work. In fact it is much easier to get a consistently clean bind by pinching the string compared to just crossing it.

Ngân Hoàng Thu yes?

Shutter is a good yoyo, I would recommend it.

Hi! Luv your vids keep up the good work!!😊😉

+Halflee M.T Thx man

+LorenzYo Cubing Hey lorenzyo!

LorenzYo Cubing L.

I've seen a better ending

+abdulwahab altenji The Civility. yoyotricks.com/yoyo-store/yoyo-brands/yotricks/civility-yoyo/

+Gabriel Maja Yes.

+xhonestx Indeed.

+xhonestx or film theory

Or food theory

We are already working on it. I doubt it will be done any time soon though.

+riley fowler The CT bearing should work.

That yoyo will not be good for learning tricks, because it won't spin very long. We recommend you consider getting a ball bearing yoyo, like the Sage, if you are interested in learning tricks. yoyotricks.com/shop/yoyo-store/yoyo-brands/yotricks/the-sage-yoyo-starter-pack/
