So, I’m starting with a story, for entertainment, and background information.

So I was just browsing through our site, and I saw the FAST yoyo holder. I read the description: There is finally a cool way to keep your yo-yo at your side. The YoYoFactory FAST yo-yo holder features a carabiner clip and elastic band that allows you to clip and store your yo-yo anywhere.

Notice the carabiner clip and elastic band??? So… a carabiner clip and a elastic band is a … carabiner, and a rubber band.

So, get a carabiner, I’m sure you have one. Just hook on two rubber bands (what if one breaks?) and attach to your belt. Hook your yoyo on, and you’re done!!!

Wasn’t that easy?

Too young??? It looks simple… I don’t really get this… a carabiner,[http://www.bentgear.com/images/CAM0006.jpg](http://www.bentgear.com/images/CAM0006.jpg) and two rubber bands [http://www.tathwa.com/sitebuilder/images/close\_up\_rubber\_band-300x300.png](http://www.tathwa.com/sitebuilder/images/close_up_rubber_band-300x300.png) and just open the carabiner, and put the rubber bands in it. Then, put your yoyo in the rubber bands.

Yea, the metal could scape it and the yoyo may be small and may fall off the band–

Well since all of you want to see a picture of it, I made one. It’s actually really good! It might scratch the yoyo tho, but so far it hasn’t on mine. Here are some pictures.

It was not an experiment, it was simply just poking holes in the FAST yoyo holder. BTW, buy the Fast yoyo holder if you want some fancy letters on the rubber band.

1. Take a carabiner
2. Get some cloth
3. Wrap the cloth around carabiner
4. Secure with rope, rubber band, tape, string…
5. Hook on two rubber bands
6. Add yoyo (you had better have one.)
7. Thank Batryn! 😃

What about this? I made this really quick with two rubber bands. Nothing fancy, but it works just the same, right?
