slack1 check out he trick vids!

Check it out the slack trick on the pics!

pinch the string with left thumb and dismount the yoyo

slack the string and make the string go over the yoyo just like a whip tricks! This is the main part of the slack trick!

over the left hand..

It's hard to see,but string is making a hoop.

put the string on the right hand

...

mount the yoyo like trapeze

and...

trapeze again

Take your right index finger out like magic trapeze! It's cool!

Check on the trick pictures

What is Slack tricks
Some people might think "what's the difference between whip and slack tricks?" Slack tricks makes a hoop with a string and put the yoyo in the hoop at the same time or while doing a combo. Make a hoop, and recapturing the yoyo is done by te independent movement. Whip tricks uses the hoop that's been made with string(except for some tricks.) Some people might not know the difference of the whips and slack tricks still but don't mind.

Setting for slack?

Some people might ask"What kind of setting should I do to do the slack tricks?"
Like the slack4 on the bottom of this page, the yoyo doesn't have to be smooth, but it's good if the yoyo doesn't come back easily when you pull the string.But you don't need to use a yoyo that is really difficult to bring it back up when you do the trapeze wind(wind that kouta watanabe did in the 2001World how to call real English?) like Black. Try to do it with your regular setting yoyo first and if your having a hard time doing it, then try to decrease the amount of oil you put on the yoyo.
You don't need to worry about the smoothness for the slack tricks that you pinch.

Yoyos for slack
Jason Lee and Poo uses a FH. Jason Lee is good at doing a trapeze wind(?) it comes back good. but puchan's yoyo doesn't come back. Black of course uses a black nova.
Patriot is a good yoyo also.But point is the yoyo that is smooth, doesn't come back, and a big gap. Gap adjustable is good! You can do good enough with SSF, but Kahuna's gap might be too small, so it might be difficult to do it.

well qualified yoyos for slack tricks
