The history of yo-yo can be traced back to China and Greece more than 2000 years ago, and then spread to Europe. By the18th century, this "exotic" gadget had become the favorite toy of European aristocrats.

All along, the yo-yo rope has been tied to the shaft, so that when the disc rotates to the end, it can immediately reverse and climb up. The yo-yo fans in the Philippines loosely wound the rope around the shaft and let the wooden plate stop at the bottom to idle (also known as "hovering"). This pioneering work has created countless stunts, such as "cat cradle" and "taking dogs for a walk". Pedro Flores, a Filipino, began to make yo-yos on 1928 after immigrating to the United States, which set off the first wave of yo-yo fashion in the United States. Because it was cheap and durable, it became one of the few successful commodities during the Great Depression.

1932, businessman Donald Duncan bought Flores' company, started to hold competitions extensively to improve his popularity, and registered the trademark "Liu Liu", which made other competitors use names that were not loud enough, such as "Zhuan". Later, Duncan became synonymous with yo-yo. 1962, the company sold 45 million yo-yos in the United States, with only 40 million children. However, in 1965, the federal court ruled that "Liu Liu" became a common term, which made Duncan lose the protection of registered trademarks. Later, Flambeau Plastics acquired the bankrupt Duncan Company and revived the Duncan brand.

Although plastics and metals began to replace wood, the basic design of yo-yo has not changed. In the late 1980s and 1990s, several companies made a series of modifications, such as increasing the weight of side rings, ball bearings and clutches. And the hovering time increases rapidly and greatly, from 5 1 99 1 sec in1year to1sec after 10 year. Don Watson, a retired engineer and professional yo-yo player nicknamed "Captain Yo-Yo", said that this "arms race" made "the innovation of design after 1990 exceed the achievements of the past 100 years". The prolonged hovering time has created hundreds of new stunts, which has once again driven the fashion trend, and has continued to this day.

1. Monkeys climb trees:

This is the basic action of playing yo-yo: after throwing the yo-yo vertically downward with backhand, it will stay at the end of the rope and rotate. As long as the wrist shakes slightly, it will climb up on its own, and the ball will stay at the end of the rope for a long time and can be recovered.

2. Take the dog for a walk:

With the skill of "monkey climbing a tree", when the yo-yo rotates at the end of the rope, let it touch the ground gently and it will move forward. When the forward force is slightly reduced, the yo-yo can be recovered with a slight shake of the wrist, and the ball can be recovered after a long walk on the ground.

3. Carp turn over:

The application of "Monkey Climbing the Tree" is that when the yo-yo rotates at the end of the rope, it quickly moves its arm, adjusts the yo-yo to the back, and then sets up the rope with its elbow. When the wrist shakes slightly, it will go around from the back to the front, then shake it down and take it back.

4. Five-pointed star:

This trick is also the application of "monkeys climbing trees". When the yo-yo stops rotating, first pull out the rope with the thumb of the left hand, then hook it in with the little finger of the right hand, then hold it up with the fingers of the left hand, then thread the hooked line out from the middle with the thumb of the right hand, and finally stir the rope from left to right in the middle of the right hand to form a five-pointed star.

5. Flying eagle rotation:

Throw the yo-yo forward hard. When it turns to the end of the rope, you don't have to catch it with your hands. Instead, turn your wrist in a small circle and throw the yo-yo. Repeat again and again. The more times, the better the technique.

6. Throw Yo-Yo under the elephant, then grab it with your hands, not connected, then bounce Yo-Yo, and move your hands beside you.

7 Use the index finger of the right hand to pass under the long rope between the left hand and the middle finger of the right hand, hook the long rope between the thumb and index finger of the left hand and pull it out, so twist the index finger to make the rope form a circle and hang it on the index finger of the left hand.

Then, hook out the long rope between the index finger and the middle finger of the left hand, wrap it in a circle and hang it on the middle finger.

Repeat the above exercise and put the rope around four fingers.

Take off the loop on your thumb and pull the rope with your right hand.

The rope loops hanging on the four fingers of the left hand were untied one by one like magic, and the yo-yo returned to the state of "whirlwind of power".

Take it back and finish the action.

Basic fancy-advanced difficulty is the most difficult part of the basic fancy of yo-yo. The length of time, technical difficulty and complexity of fancy are incomparable between primary and intermediate levels.

Therefore, before learning advanced fancy, we must have solid basic skills:

1。 Gionee cyclone time should reach at least 1 min.

2。 The accuracy of landing on the moon reaches 80%

3。 Lightning struck more than 30 left and right hands (to prepare for a quick strike with both hands)

Yo-Yo Advanced:

[1] Wind-fire needle wheel (rotating technology): Make Youyou in a "strong whirlwind" state, and hook the rope with your left thumb. Put down your right hand quickly, let Yo Yo's rope slide on your fingers, and pull Yo Yo up. Grasp the position of the long rope about 15-20cm with the left hand, and use the pulling force to make the long rope rotate more than three times. Turn more than three times, let go of your fingers and take them back.

[2] Phantom magic (rotating technology): Make Youyou in a "whirlwind" state and hang Youyou rope on the back of your hand.

Pass the index finger of the right hand under the long rope between the left hand and the middle finger of the right hand, hook the long rope between the thumb and the index finger of the left hand and pull it out. Twist the index finger to make the long rope form a circle and hang it on the index finger of the left hand. Then, hook it out in the leisurely space between the index finger and the middle finger of the left hand and turn it around and hang it on the middle finger. Repeat the above exercise, and hang all four fingers with long ropes. Take off the long rope on your thumb and pull it with your right hand. Hanging on the four fingers of the left hand, the long rope is untied one by one like magic, and the long rope returns to the state of "power whirlwind" and pulls the long rope back to the hand.

[3] Earth-shattering double or nothing: According to the main points of "landing on the moon", throw Youyou to the right hard to make it idle. Swing your wrist from right to left on the front of your body, so that you can draw a semicircle like a pendulum. When Yo-Yo just said the semicircle, he quickly blocked the index finger of his left hand about 30cm away from his right hand. Youyou takes the left index finger as the axis. When he just drew a semicircle, he quickly blocked the You You rope with his right index finger. When Youyou just drew a semicircle with the right index finger as the axis, the left index finger blocked the Youyou rope again. Let the leisurely rotation with the index finger as the axis ride on the leisurely rope that just touches the front of the finger. Open your arms, throw them all up, disconnect the long rope from the index finger of both hands, pull back and take it back.

[4] Side winding method (rotating technology): Make Youyou in a "strong whirlwind" state, swing your right hand slightly to the right, and let Youyou swing to the right. Before swinging leisurely to the right, pull your right hand to the center of your body and pull up the swim. Yo-yo rotates like a rotating "whisper". Pull it back. Get it back. Also, try to swing leisurely to the left.

[5] Interstellar shuttle barrel rolling (rope bending technology): Make Youyou in a "whirlwind" state, and hook the rope with your left index finger. Move the long rope of the right hand forward to make it pass through the long rope. Just lift your right hand so that it is about 15cm higher than your left index finger. Hang the long rope on the index finger of the left hand and put down the right hand. Tick out the nearest long rope with the index finger of the right hand, and move the right hand forward in an arc, so that the index finger of the right hand passes under the long rope. Using the reaction force of the leisurely rope at this time, leisurely will pop up from the leisurely rope in front and put it on the leisurely rope in front. Repeat the above actions and let Youyou bounce back and forth between the long ropes. Raise your right hand and use the reaction force to make Youyou rotate around the index finger of your left hand. Raise your palm, take it back and throw it in front of you calmly.

[6] Moonsault Backflip (rope bending technique): Throw Youyou forcefully to the right to make Youyou in a "moon landing" state, and then swing your wrist from right to left on the front of your body to make Youyou draw a semicircle. When Yo-Yo has just drawn a semicircle, use the left index finger to quickly block the position where the Yo-Yo rope is about 10cm away. Turn your index finger leisurely and let Youyou put on the long rope between your hands. Keep the position of your left hand unchanged, at the same time, put your right hand away, and turn your body slightly to the left, so that you are in front of your body. Touch the center of the heavy rope between Youyou and your left hand with the middle finger of your right hand and push it forward to make Youyou rotate around the index finger of your left hand. Raise your right hand, put down your left hand and make a leisurely turn. After turning the circle, don't stop leisurely, immediately pull your right hand back and use the reaction force to bounce leisurely. Pull You You back and get him.

[7] Nuclear splitting atoms (rope bending technology): Make Yo-Yo in a "whirlwind of power" state, and hook the rope with the left index finger to lift it. Push the index finger of the right hand to the position where the long rope distance is about 10cm. Let the long rope go around the index finger of the right hand and put it on the long rope on the left, and at the same time raise the right hand to the same height as the left hand. Right hand up, left hand down in circles, at the same time, using the reaction force of the long rope to pop up and put it on the long rope in front. Put the index finger of the left hand on the double rocking rope in front, with the left hand up and the right hand down. When both hands turn in circles, the swing rope will be ejected by the reaction force of the swing rope and placed on the opposite left swing rope. When the swing falls below, hook the two swing ropes in front of you with the index finger of your right hand and lift them up. Turn your hands to make the swing rotate twice. Stop spinning when you shake it to the bottom. Pull off the swing rope rolled on the index finger of the right hand. Raise your right hand and use the reaction force to make Tik Tok rotate around the index finger of your left hand. Put your palm up and take back the swing thrown forward.

[8] Atomic fire (rope bending technology): make the swing in a "strong whirlwind" state, and hook the swing rope with the left index finger. Push the index finger of the right hand to the position about 10cm away from the rope. Let the swing rope wrap around the index finger of the right hand and put it on the swing rope of the left hand, and at the same time raise the right hand to the same height as the left hand. Turn your hands as shown in the picture, so that you can turn. In this way, don't stop the action of the left hand, continue to turn the left hand to make it pass under the sway, and at the same time, use the reaction force of the sway rope to eject the sway and put it on the sway rope in front. When the left hand turns to the top, immediately put the right hand through the bottom of the rocking rope, and at the same time use the reaction force of the rocking rope to eject the rocking rope and put it on the front rocking rope. When the right hand turns to the top, immediately put the right hand through the bottom of the rocking rope, and at the same time use the reaction force of the rocking rope to eject the rocking rope and put it on the front rocking rope. Let the rocking rope bounce back and forth more than three times. When the left hand turns to the top, stop the rotation of both hands, pull out the index finger of the right hand, and remove the rocking rope wrapped around the index finger. Due to the reaction, raise your right hand and swing around the index finger of your left hand. Catch the swing thrown forward with your hands.

[9] Thunder shooting at the moon (rotating technology): Put down your right hand and throw your palm backwards and forwards. Don't swing back with your hands, but throw the swing back high with your wrist to make the swing draw a crescent-shaped pattern. Don't follow the swing coming back from above with your hand, and then throw the swing forward with the strength of your wrist, so that the swing draws a crescent-shaped pattern.

Give full play to the strength of the wrist, make it shake and draw a crescent-shaped pattern for more than three times. Finally, put your palm up and catch the returning vibration. This move is really difficult, there is nothing to say except hard work.

[10] Tornado double loop (rope bending technology): each hand holds a shake. Put down your right hand and throw your palm backward and forward. When Tik Tok, the right hand, just returned to his hand, Tik Tok, the left hand, threw it forward just like the action of the right hand. Don't grab the one that has just returned to the right hand side and shake it. Continue to shake it and draw the cake pattern. Make the left and right shake alternately to draw the cake pattern, repeat the action with both hands for more than five times, and finally catch the back shake with the palm up. You can practice your left hand first, and then practice your hand when you are proficient.

If you are proficient in all the above actions, you can make up more yo-yo games yourself. I will combine modern dance and blend together to form a unique fancy game. I hope everyone will work together to carry forward the quintessence of Chinese culture and make yo-yo truly invincible and become the first toy in the world.
