Yo: Tricks
built 619 days ago
A yo-yo competition normally consists of two parts, a set of compulsory tricks and a freestyle, where points are scored for each and the winner is the yo-yoer who scores the most points. Compulsory tricks are a set of tricks that have been chosen before the contest, and the competitor must successfully complete each trick on their first or second attempt to score points. The freestyle is when the yoist performs a routine to their choice of music in front of a panel of judges, and is judged based on difficulty of the tricks, synchronization with the music and artistic performance.

Regens (regenerations) is a yo-yo technique which 'regenerates' the spin of the yo-yo, so you can continue without needing to throw the yo-yo again. One of the most popular of these is the Eiji Regen. This is ... one of the tricks required at the World yoyo contest in the OS category.

Each silhouette may have more weight distributed at either the center of the yo-yo or the rim. More weight towards the rim will make the yo-yo more stable for string tricks; more weight towards the center will make the yo-yo easier to turn and therefore better for looping tricks.
