What do you guys think would happen if someone started a new style of play with two strings? ???

Two strings around the yoyo, two strings on your finger. It doesn’t work. It just plays like REALLY thick string.

What about a style including 2a and 3a, where you would use responsive 1a yoyos to loop while doing 3a too.

I don’t know about you, but I’m 6’4" and my arms aren’t that long with a full string.

I tried it with one string on each hand way back in March. It doesn’t work very well. It is kind of fun to start the yoyo if you wind it right.

It’s been done long long ago. Two counterweights? Rei Iwakura even did it in the AP division at Worlds years ago.

Well.
There is Dualstring as well. 1a yoyo in one hand and secondary string on the other either tied to the finger and or hold with a counterweight.
Some legit stuff, but rare.
