Hi! I am Tim on behalf of expertvillage.com. We will be showing you tips and techniques on how to use the yo-yo from the book, "Its Yo-Yo Time" by Stuart Crump Jr. In this clip, I will show how to do the flying saucer trick, which we used to… If your yo-yo is too tight and this yo-yo keeps coming back up and you need to loosen the string. One way to do this is by doing what you call flying saucer, which looks up like this. The way you do is you bring the yo-yo at an angle and throw it down like the sleeper, you can have it at an angle and you are going to throw it down at a 45 degree angle and then from there you are going to grab it about 6 inches above the yo-yo on the string. Pick it up and then when you let it go, you throw it up and pull back. So, it looks something like this. Grab it, pick it up, throw it back.
