That bind is so much more difficult than it looks. I usually end up with a snag instead of a nice snap.

You may have noticed it already but your goose was flying backwards.

Honestly, I, unlike your kid, give your honk a 9/10. While not their signature honk I have 100% encountered gangs of them mumbling to one another similarly. Great job.

What if we dont have 4a yoyo :frowning:

Mime the actions :rofl:

You can use any yoyo… doc pop has a trick Washing Machine where in the middle of his 1A combo he takes the yoyo off the string does some 4A then puts it back on the string to finish with a regular bind. So you could do that…

I also think @mable started 4A last year with a regular yoyo and might be able to give some better advice.

I think 4A yoyos are just wider, made of plastic so you don’t care of it his the ground, and the gap at the bearing is narrow… but the physics is the same so you “could” throw 4A with your favorite BiMetal…

Oh i thought 4a yoyos had different gaps like a responsive yoyo :sweat_smile: maybe i will try and pick one up this month

Half spec C bearings will give you a similar gap width to 4A yoyos. So if you have any yoyos that take a half spec, you’re good to go. Any yoyo with a size A bearing will work as well. The smaller gap width only really matters for binds/regens. It’s a little annoying/quirky but if you’re really determined you can make a full size C bearing yoyo work, but I’d recommend only trying if you’ve got access to a half spec or A bearing yoyo.

I learned how to 4A last year because of the T-a-W thread while using a yotricks sage with a half spec.

Yup! Full size C bearing with various spacer widths is the standard, stock spacers usually have the gap width out of the box aound 2.2-2.5mm. YYR and Japan Tech both offer 4A models with A and D sized bearings, the big difference is mostly just how you want binds and regens to feel.

Here’s some simple leg orbits using a yotricks sage with a half spec. It took more tries than I expected. So uhhh using a 1A yoyo is a lot harder lol. Definitely give it a shot if you can though, 4A is fun! It’ll make it easier to invest in getting a proper 4A yoyo if you’ve already got a grasp of the basics.
