Magic Knot Variation

Yo-Yo Tricks
1

We all know about the magic knot tricks, recently I accidentally figured out a pretty cool variation of this trick, shooting me out of this rut I had gotten myself into. I began playing with the trick “Branding” and tried to do other things with it…crossing the arms, etc.

Originally I created a trick I dubbed “Trapper Keeper” (Trying to remember if I posted it on here before) and then decided to revisit the trick and deliberately try to do something else that I wouldn’t normally think of…and then it was born.

I made an attempt do do a break down for all of you, hopefully you can figure it out and give it a shot!

That’s pretty cool! I just learned Branding (still fail at the suicide at the end often tho) and this is a nice thing to break up the monotony. :slight_smile:

Thanks!

Thanks for the tut.

If anyone is interested, the “Magic Knot” is actually a variation on a real knot.
It’s called the “Bell Ringers Knot.” It would be used to shorted the ropes for bells in the bell tower without getting a knot in the rope.
