For all of you ‘young-ins’ out there, this is the site that I originally learned how to do tricks off of back in 2004-2006 around the times of dial up, and dinosaurs. Sector-Y has a lot of tricks that I haven’t seen in very many tutorial videos. It is also helpful to study the illustrations when learning with the video tutorial, as sometimes the tutorials aren’t always 100% clear, or go too fast. Without further adieu, I present to you Sector Y 1.0, The Holy Grail of throwing tutorials

Update: I found the other site that was similar and had some great Steve Brown tricks!  
I had to bring it up using web.archive (a site to view any older version of a website that may no longer exist) and I present to you…_drum roll please!_ [Advanced Tricks](http://web.archive.org/web/20091126155337/http://www.yo-yo.org/stringsattached/yoyo/advancedtricks.html)

No videos, just illustrations. Which is actually pretty useful in many cases. Especially for tricks that you’re trying to learn from a video but aren’t quite “sussing”.

Awesome! Glad I could help people out. There is another site that had the illustrations just like Sector-Y and had some ‘underground’ Steve Brown tricks ;D I’m gonna see if I can find it and if I do, I’ll modify the post and add it.

Awesome!

Absolute Zero is pretty nifty.

“You will land in a position similar to this one”. Guess they weren’t calling them “Man on the Flying Trapeze and his Brother” or “Double or Nothing” back then. :wink:

I learned Pink Hippo. It wasn’t hard on a Chief, but I can imagine it being next to impossible on a twitch responsive, thin gapped, looping yoyo.
