Not Ultimate, But a LOT of Fun!

the Ultimate Yo-Yo Book by Larry Sayco isn't really "ultimate" but it is a very good read and a lot more fun than you'd initially think. Written for a young audience, it actually is of tremendous use for any yo-er who expects to ever perform in public. It includes many of the standard tricks you're used to seeing everywhere else - but described in new ways. Bowling, you might have heard of. But "Tumbling Tower"? "Statue of Liberty"? And you should see the audiences react! Two "coolness" factors: the cover is a sorta adaption of the way-cool cover to the One & Only Yo-Yo Book from last decade. And extra points go to Larry for including troubleshooting tips for his tricks! That, folks, is cool.What Larry has put together here is a terrific "script" for an act, which requires - NOT the "best" yo-yo skill in the world, but persistence and practice. And studying this book. (review from BANDALORE reprinted by permission)

An excellent book of basic yo-yo tricks.

This book sticks just to the tricks which is nice. The trouble tips sections included for most of the tricks is a unique addition and very helpful for the novice. This is an excellent basic yo-yo trick book, but advanced players should check out the Yonomicon.

This was a very great book.

Now this book was truley da bomb. My brother ordered it and it had so many tricks and tips in it. I am not really into yo-yos but now that I have read this book I really and starting to like them. Trust me but if you have a sister or brother at home and they like yo-yos then get them this book they will love it. Another thing I noticed about the book is it was really easy to follow. Even my little brother can follow this that is how east this book is to follow. Sorry to write follow all the time but it really is so easy to read. Bye Bye
