I’ve been doing like a double reverse front mount lately. Keep the loops small and pinch just one at the last moment. Like a basic front bind with an extra lil flair. ---

I’m boring and I like simple binds that are safe and easy. I don’t really have a favorite, I just do whatever feels right for the trick. The feeling of landing a trick and then missing the bind sucks lol. Favorite bind that I don’t do is probably just doing a slap bind but using your foot to kick the slack into the gap, I saw Zach Gormley do that once but I’m so inconsistent with slap binds in general that I never do them. ---

Reviving another dead thread but w/e it’s a fun question. I’m going these two right now. I don’t know the names of either. To myself I’ve been calling the first one the quick bind and the second one is the oldhead bind. ---

I really like the Bind I came up with as a variation on this trick Yoyojoe is teaching… https://www.youtube.com/embed/OfOBh6Yvxoc?feature=oembed&wmode=opaque&list=PLuVKIqNyzvEuHdBonWUrYh4slHdYGcvrc When the first slack comes over I don’t catch it with my finger but let the slack fall into the gap. Perfect position to just raise my throw hand and bind. And also the Vasek One Handed Bind is a favorite of mine. Especially when I‘m in a flashy and stylish mood 😁 Tyler Severance is teaching it in his 5 Pro Binds Video… [![](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/yoyoexpert1/original/4X/f/7/b/f7bb0f8773f2dc8ed6cb546b6ba4fd0cdc63f65b.jpeg "5 Easy Pro Player Yoyo Binds") ](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UtApdaSvofo) ---

The outside slack bind is my favorite and makes a really tight/clean bind. Tyler does a good job but what helped me start to land it was to: 1. imagine your throwing the yoyo to setup a jade whip 2. Don’t just let go of the string from your non-throw hand, pluck it like the string on bow or guitar and that will shoot the slack under the yoyo. Eventually you can get it without the pluck but that’s what helped make it click for me.
