Binds do not work by throwing the string into the gap. Instead, a true 1a bind works by threading the string through the gap of the yoyo to rotate the outer-race of the bearing in the same direction the yoyo is spinning, in order to pull the string attached to the bearing around the bearing enough times to engage the response system and wind up.

Why did you comment on your own video 3 years after you made it?
Is yoyok1 is responsive yoyo
Are all magic yo-yo responsive
That's a great video, well done guys!
It's easier to wrap one's string around the bearing than one's head around how binds work!
I can't believe I'm still learning new things about binding three years after I started.
Am I the only one who thinks these guys need more subs?
Me too
Yes you are
But hey, that's just a theory. A BIND THEORY! Thanks for throwing!
Omg yessss lol
Lol I love his videos! XD
Yes
throwning, UP AT THIS GUYS TERRIBLE VIDEO AMIRITE?!?!??!?!?
I thought the exact same reference!!! Couldn’t have been more perfect
the big bind theory
good one
Jossian Caraballo hahaha that's right team Peniz! Boozingle hahahahahahahahahha *laugh tracks*
My magic yoyo k1 is unresponsive but sometimes when i bind it it goes back up and sometimes it dosent i dont know why im confused 😡
Jossian Caraballo you need to stop
*_BA DUM TSH_*
Brilliant! More theory & technique videos like this please! It's perfecting and knowing principles like this that can make one a better thrower.
Well done!
I have always known how to do a bind, but could never explain it.
Your video is great, now I know how to teach it.
Great video! And very informative! The yoyo world needs more videos that go into the mechanics of yoyo play. As a possible future video, you should do a loop theory video where you go over the dynamics of looping, especially how to keep the yoyos at the proper angles.
+Imperator381 We do have other theory videos in mind, and we plan to tackle about anything we think we can in a way that is both accurate and useful.
watching this just instantly improved every bind i do 😁
its good to remember that with any skill, its not just practice, but its the amount you learn and understand it.
Wow, so I definitely needed this video. I just started throwing for the first time since my Duncan Fireball days back in the 90s lol. I have a Replay Pro and have been tossing the tail into the gap to bind because that seemed to work better but this video was an eye opener, thanks for that!
University lecture level.
This was so fun and interesting to watch. I always "felt" these concepts of bind theory, but now seeing the actual physics behind them amazes me. Awesome video guys!!! XD
I have a n12 black gold splash
Amazing video, the high-speed capture was amazing, the technical breakdown is something I've never seen captured before, and it was funny as well.
+Nick Antonizick Thanks!
Another excellent video, and that finger spin at the end was sick!
This is a really informative and interesting video. This should be recommended watching for all yoyo players. Really nice filming in this video too. I learned a lot.
I love it! Yoyo theory, your fancy look, the shots, mic placement, all great! ;)
This might be the most dense yoyo tutorial; however it was greatly needed! Great job y'all!
+Jared Worth Thanks. It was certainly more work to put together than anything we have attempted before. I hope it ends up becoming a solid resource for the yoyo world.
Brilliant work and research guys! I'm sure you yourself learned a few new things and clarified some existing ideas. The definitive bind theory video.
+Bhagwad Park Thanks. We did learn a lot, and the positive reception this video has had has gotten us excited about pursuing other yoyo "theory" videos. :D
Also, terrific video, crazy informative....I think I'm going to have to watch it a couple more times to really understand all of it. Thanks, guys!
+Michael Pate Happy to help!
good video. I'll share it on my channel too
herro
After many searches here is the only place I've fond this information! Thanks a lot!!!
Glad it was helpful!
me before covid: yoyoing is too complicated for me
me during covid: omg this is so complicated I love it
So true!
This helped me way more than videos about binding tricks. Understanding the mechanics let me figure out how to make my "own" improvised binds.
Awesome!
Love the epic bearing view and music!!!!
Great video! First time I see such a deep discussion about binding, something we do without thinking after a while.
As for the "throwing the string into the gap" part, I think this is still relevant as a tip to learn the binding movement when you're a newbie.
It's basically an exagerated movement that teaches newer player how to bind by having them feel the friction point between the string and the response pads.
As they get better, players refine their movements and don't need to throw their string anymore to hit that friction point, which leads to better binds.
+supersmashsam Thanks.
On the "throwing the string into the gap" idea, however, it would not be too great an exaggeration to say that we made this video to put that idea completely to rest. In our view it is not good for beginners or experienced players to throw the string into the gap. The main reason being, for the basic binds it is always better to throw the string on the opposite side of the yoyo to avoid a snag. Since it is the act of changing the level of your hands, and not the throwing of the tail, that allows you to feel the friction point between the string and the response pads, it seems to me that it is not helpful in any sense to throw the string into the gap.
It sounds like you have taught a few people to bind yourself, which is cool. If you get a chance, try teaching a player or two to bind without throwing the string into the gap and see if it is any easier or not for them to get the general idea. I would love to hear how it goes.
+yotricks I have to admit that one of the problems that beginners encounter when learning to bind is that they focus too much on that "throwing" word and drop the string too fast instead of waiting and feeling the friction. So it's probably a good idea to ditch the term "throw" and focus more on changing the level of their hands.
When you start learing to bind however, you don't necessarily have a very good and fast throw yet, so there is often a need to exagerate the movement by using an extra long tail, or by crossing the strings over the gap, which leads to tail wrapping and snagging. But I think that's part of the learning process.
As you progess however, it is very important to correct this, especially if you want to learn advanced binds such as those that use whips and for regens. This last point was shown excellently in your video.
Thanks for the response!
Very comprehensive video, well done!
Thanks!
With all the slow-motion displays and physics explained, it still looks like you're doing magic tricks!
Time: 5:55 - Perfect music for the intersection view!
that video, was truely the best of the channel ! :o
Great commentary. Outstanding.
i love this video,its pretty funny and informative,nice work guys.
+Jack Ripper Thanks!
We are still working on it.
SO MUCH KNOWLEDGE! I LOVE IT!
Just watched Zach's video series on yoyo design, and now this. I feel like I've taken the red pill! :)
Instead of taking the alpha red pill you took yopha pill :)
lol dude i learned pretty much everything from you and now you're becoming my history and science teacher too. and nice beard
+Levi Barton Thanks!
This is the best video you have ever made! You can make a topic as plain as a Bind into a really interesting video. :D I love it!
+Paul Zorovich Thanks!
Excellent video!
Who else’s favourite yoyotricks tutorial maker is this guy😅
what an amazing video. Thanks yotrick has made this video
That was a very interesting spin on "Also sprach Zarathustra." ;)
I would love to see more content like this!
Dude , you have changed !!! Btw, love the videos.
It's crazy how much understanding of this has changed. There was a time when people described backspin binds as "fake binds" - real binds were frontspin binds where you deliberately threw enough string into the gap to jam up the yoyo 😂
You can also see plenty of Andre Boulay tutorial videos where he binds in what we now consider the wrong way, and then has to throw a few times to clear the snag. (Though of course, he manages to do it with an abundance of style nonetheless)
I used to habitually bind the wrong way on a side throw because no-one taught me there was any difference, and trapezes are slightly easier than undermounts. Life became so much easier after I saw this video and retrained myself. 😊
Glad to hear it payed off!
I’m not an expert but I had this _Turboencabulator_ feeling while listening. Haha!
Excellent video and demo, you really know that (YoYo) wold.
This video helped me bind thank you!
wow, amazing video. I didn't understand half of it but still... amazing. : )
that was such an awesome video , thanks guys
If you decide to remake this video like you've done for others, I think a few diagrams would be helpful. Especially in defining frontspin vs backspin mounts. That one takes some time to do verbally.
Love the slow mo close ups of the bearing interaction !
Thanks for sharing really helped!
Wow most of your videos are good but are very specific, which can be good, but i love this video since it applies to almost everybody. Keep up the good work! This would have gotten a instant subscribe from me if i already wasnt.
+Alex Garcia Thanks!
awesome!!! I was actually wondering why my laceration bind leaves such a weird tail wrap!!! hilarious music choice!!! haha it made it go from an amazing and informative video to an amazing entertaining informative video!!!! great job guys!!! PS: I see Adam didn't put the red shirt back on hahahahaha
Very interesting, thanks a lot guys :)
See ya in your next tutorial :)
This idea of yoyo theory is awesome. Will there be more?
This is awesome! Thanks
Love the new look as the cap and Tee shirt are replacd by a more mature image.
But you are still a kick ass yoyo person and have taught me much.. Next year Tweed?..xx
This was great! It'll be a great foundation for you to build upon with future slack videos! Do you have plans for any more Theory videos? Green Triangle Theory and Slack Theory would both be welcome.
+Marcus Hambright We do have a few more theory videos in mind, but they take a very long time to write and film, so I don't think we will be releasing another any time soon.
My god this video is so hyped up and awesome. Nice video editing.
Thanks!
Saw this at the throwers subreddit. Great video
+alex A. Thanks!
I don't even have a Yoyo...
You should give it a go. You might love it
NERF THIS
James Conrad dollar tree yoyo
GuitarboyLemee no
they're pretty good for a cheap starter
Just another string theory... :)
Great video, thanks !
Really interesting and hilarious video!
I've always wondered how binds work!! But do you happen to know how Responsive Yoyos use slack to come up?
+WhiteViper On a responsive yoyo two things are happening. One, the string touches the response system when you pull on the string, because the string flexes inside the yoyo and touches it. Second, the bearings on most responsive yoyos do not spin as freely as unresponsive bearings, so the outer race of the bearing will also spin the same direction of the yoyo when it is not weighed down (i.e. when you pull it up) so the outer race also pulls the string around, and when enough string is touching the response system it finishes winding up.
I'm surprised there are dislikes... Like... What didn't they like? This video is super interesting!
That was a good one.
Thanks!!!
I knew most of this stuff, just not the technical explanation. Though this is the best video to describe and explain binds to new players.
BEST VIDEO ENDING EVER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Hi! Luv your vids keep up the good work!!😊😉
+Halflee M.T Thx man
+LorenzYo Cubing Hey lorenzyo!
LorenzYo Cubing L.
I've seen a better ending
Great exp
Well thought guys, thank you!
This is great!
anyone in 2024?
Yes
Sure thing!
Yep still can't figure out "front binds" they are all taught from a breakaway throw from the side...
Me
Can you bind a aluminum yoyo
Right on. This is excellent info and quality. thanks.
Thank you so much!
how did you guys get that open yoyo binding footage.. looks sick..
That song for the montage at the end was so cringe but it was the only way to BIND this video. I hate myself. Great work! Can’t wait to get my unresponsive yo-yo soon!
ur back man!!
Lol, the music @ 5:54 😄 great fun !
This was very informative. Great job guys! Although, im interested. How'd you get those upclose shots of the bearings?
+MeditationGamers Macro lenses.
This guy is great and can do any kind of how too video and i will listen :)
Love it!
--" of bind theory" DON DON DOOOON lol this video is awesome
You guys are so close to 100,000 subs
OMFG! This video is awesome!
Hard to follow along and try to understand the especially technical stuff when I'm tired but luckily I already understand. Amazing video guys, thanks so much for all that you guys do for the community and new players. I don't know where I would be with yo-yos without your videos.
With the shot of the black yoyo binding and you could see the bearing open, did you use a hubstack to get that shot?
+Alexander Recinos We used a hubstack for one of the shots and a Civility for the other shot.
+YoYo Life I'm pretty sure it's a Daydream
Hahaha this is so funny!! Great vid!!
Thanks!
yotricks that was realy nice
Anonymous good vid but how is this funny.
I'm being serious rn. There are thousands of people out here saying some of the strangest things on the web.
Your voice during story time 🙏
Nice video notch
Thank you
jesus so much truth i cant take it stop
Yayayayaya
I still don't get this, but this is helping. Thanks for trying so hard to explain!
New hat! love it :)
ok this is a bit Alton Brown and a touch Hipseterish, but Otherwise, This is Brilliant! No one has ever shown this much detail and production value in a yoyo vid OR explained Binds so succinctly. Good SHOW Sir. Good Show.
I love this guy.
but, it's just a theory, A GA... I mean BIND THEORY!
Nathan Martinez lol
😂😂
congrats, youre the 100000000000000000000000000000th person to make this joke
@@jeanskipper6445 I would like to thank the academy for this award
Thanks. I used to yo yo circa 1970. Then reintroduced early to mid 90's when kids were using clutch style, so I bought a few. I haven't kept up with trends and didn't know about ball bearing yoyos. Makes sense, what with fidget spinners that probably came after ball bearing yoyis caught on. Interesting that fidget spinners combine the ball weightedness of clutches with ball bearing use. It's like a hybrid. Wonder if fidget spinner inventor was a yoyo enthusiast? Now, time to kitbash a fidget spinner and upgrade an old cheap yoyo!
as a very beginner i like doing double or nothing dropping a string with throw hand then binding the string so yoyo comes back to hand that feels so satisfying, and plastic whip bind back to hand. currently trying to get hold of a shutter yoyo and bag of extra string with brexit and covid getting stuff is a headache.
Damn this was awesome
wow... awesome
Informative, although binding in a frontspin mount can be desirable if you want the yoyo to snag so as to create a temporarily responsive yoyo enabling you to be able to loop or shoot the moon to add style to you regens. Additionally, getting some tail snag in the yoyo is a sure way to get a consistent bind. While you may have to recover by doing a couple of gravity pulls and binds, a consistent bind may be considered more important than a clean bind as in competition or some other circumstance where you need a bind. Sometimes the correct way isn't the best way :)
Great video, though!
+Owen Ekblad Certainly you are correct about this use of frontspin binds, we even show this in our video. However, I ardently disagree with you about tail snag being a good way to get more consistent binds. The pinching method we show in this video is more consistent than throwing the tail into the gap (which gives you the tail snag you describe) and can be done cleanly 100% of the time in mount based binds, and most of the time in lacerations as well. Whether you are in a contest or performing tricks for something like a talent show it is always superior to have consistent clean binds to running the risk of having tail snags which may need to be cleared with a gravity pull or two, especially when such snags are completely unnecessary. I suggest that perhaps you have not mastered the basic techniques of binds yet if you are relying on tail snags to hit your binds consistently.
I've known all This since Skin the Gerbil and I found it all out on my own. My friends have always been so curious why I throw Front style and bind front style all the time compared to back style throwing and binds. I told them well because there are a small amount of tricks that require a back style throw compared to the front style throwlike Skin the Gerbil and Grandma Kim it Sandwich. They still don't understand why though I do it though.
Luv this vid so cool
that video is very interesting ! thanks guys. BTW which yoyo you were using?
