What you are reffering to is called “horizontal yoyoing.” If you look at the"UFO" trick and how the yoyo is spinning, you basicly play with a sideways yoyo like that. Your right… It is very cool and impressive if you get the hang of it.

Just try to make sure you are swinging the yoyo, such that it is moving continuously. The centrifugal force keeps the string at an angle so that it does not touch the sides of the yoyo.

Just remember its not about speed, its technique.

First of all, Jensen didn’t invent that. What you do is you throw the yoyo almost sideways, and just do things like braintwister combos. If you keep practicing, you’ll get the hang of it. That’s really all there is to doing horizontals, it’s about practicing, and the feel for it.

After learning to throw trapeze sideways, learn to roll the yoyo on the string.  
Learn Gerbil as a 1st sideways trick.  
It’ll teach you to keep good control over the yoyo, but it’s not as hard as a lot of other sideways tricks.

Also, try not to practice your sideways tricks super fast. Go slow and focus on control over speed. Speed will become a crutch for bad form if you practice tricks fast from the start.

Also, when you’re first learning, stick to roll-type tricks where the yoyo doesn’t dismount from the string. They’re much easier and less frustrating than other types of sideways tricks.

Good luck!  
Augie
