2. Curl your middle finger around the yo-yo groove and close your hand palm up. Point your elbow forward and bring your hand to your shoulder, as if you’re making a muscle.

4. Keep your hand still, about waist high. The yo-yo should spin without climbing. Jerk lightly on the string with your middle finger to bring it back.
