I finally did it. After months of going on and off of trying to figure out how to one handed bind, I actually found a way!! Here’s me doing it down below. Sorry I act weird, I have HUGE camera fright and don’t really shutter (which was the yoyo I was also using, he he) in real life like I kind of did in the video. If you would like a tutorial or better video quality, then please let me know. If you do want a tutorial, I promise I’ll make it better quality as well as side views. Basically what I do is I do a front trapeze with just my index finger and my thumb. But I can’t just do that, because there is too much string. So I wound up the string around my wrist so I can get closer to it. Then I pinch the top of the trapeze string so I can untwist the string around my wrist so then it gets me in a bind position so when I pull my finger (he he) and drop the yoyo at the same time, it’ll come back to my hand without a knot. Once again, let me know if you would like a tutorial explaining it with better quality. Cheers!

My way that I “one-handed” bind is by doing a plastic whip and then swinging it away from my body if Im in front style.

Sorry if I am understanding you wrong but… you can do chopsticks with 1 hand… To me that is just… Nah.

And wow Darkscism, that is actually another way to do it!

Nice work man. Very different from the normal ways to bind.

The plastic whip is my typical way, but that doesn’t meet the “non-slack, non-whip” criteria of the title. :wink:

Creative and innovative! Although I also use the plastic whip approach myself as well.

Why not just use your arm to push the string shorter? Like in around the corner. Much faster.

I think I would just pop into that chop stick mount with out the wrapping of the arm.  
Nice job figuring a way through the trick.

I know that that’s possible, but REALLY difficult, if I am understanding you correctly.
