Is this a trick? I’ve never seen it, but I also haven’t been yo-yoing for a long time. It’s kind of hard to explain… (I’m new to yo-yoing, so I might not use the right ‘yo-yoing terms’) 1. Put the yoyo in a braintwister mount. 2. Bring your throw hand up, as high as your non throw hand. 3. Put your throw hand into the (triangle? or Loop?) shape. 4. Pinch the string, like the Pinwheel trick, spin (or loop) the yoyo around. I’ll make a video. ---

Wow, that cool. I tried it out. I did an overmount ([Over Mount | YoYo Wiki | Fandom](http://yoyowiki.org/wiki/Over_Mount)) instead on the thread up the back thing, and instead of pinching it I just made a fist and the whole thing just spun in an orbit around my hand I gonna practice that all day tomorrow till I get it to dismount smoothly. But no, I havent seen that before. it’s kinda like brain twister meets wrist mount What do you call it? ---

It might be kinda corny, but I vote for “Oberon” It’s a moon around Uranus that orbits verticaly (over and under) rather than horizontally (around the middle) like all the other planets do. What do you think? :-\ ---

It’s really simple. It’s not an official trick in the “book”, but since yo-yoing is about creativity, it is a trick if you use it right. ---
