Table of Contents: A B C D E F G H I J K L M N O P Q R S T U V W X Y Z

A

  • A - A style of play where you have 1 string trick yo-yo.
  • AA (double A) - A style of play where you have 2 looping yo-yos.
  • AAA (triple A) - A style of play where you have 2 string trick yo-yos.
  • AAAA (4A) - See offstring.
  • AAAAA (5A) - A style of play where you have 1 string trick yo-yo and a counterweight.
  • Adjustable Gap - A yo-yo that can be made more or less responsive (easier or more difficult to return to the hand) by decreasing or increasing the string gap, usually done by twisting the yo-yo halves.
  • AP - Artistic performance division. In an AP competition, the player goes not for technical skill but for art. I don't know much about it so I hope someone who does will update.
  • Axle - The whole yo-yo world spins around this.

B

  • Ball Bearing - The type of transaxle bearing that usually provides the least friction.
  • Bind - Wrapping some extra string into the string gap in order to make a non-responsive yo-yo return.
  • Butterfly (shape) - Wide yo-yo shape usually chosen for string tricks.

C

D

E

F

  • Fixed Axle - An axle that doesn't have a transaxle or ball bearing on it. Just the bare string on metal, wood, etc.
  • Friction Stickers - Round adhesive stickers that add response to a yo-yo.
  • Freegen - A freehand manoeuver in which the sleeping yo-yo is caused to begin winding where, when the yo-yo is aproximatly half wound, the counterweight is released and the momentum of the counterweight in synchonation with the winding of the yo-yo causes the spin to be regenerated.
  • Frontstyle - Tricks and mounts done from a straight sleeper, such as the undermount.

G

  • Gap - The space between the yo-yo halves.

H

I

  • Imperial (shape) - Classic yo-yo shape
  • Inner Ring Grind - A type of grind where a finger, usually the thumb, is inserted into the side of the yo-yo half, allowing the yo-yo to grind on your nail.

J

K

  • KonKave Bearing - A bearing with a concave profile to keep the string centered.

L

  • Lube - Lubricant applied to a transaxle yo-yo on the ball bearing or bearing sleeve.

M

  • Mercury Bearing - A bearing sold pre-cleaned.
  • Mod - A modification made to a stock yo-yo, usually to change its response or looks.
  • Modified (shape) - This shape is often used to make a yo-yo good for string and loopin

N

O

  • Offstring - A style of yo-yoing where the yo-yo is not tied to the string.
  • O-Rings - Rubber rings attached to the inner wall of the yo-yo around the axle.

P

  • P213 - A yo-yo with the tip of a spin top added to one or both sides.
  • Poly - Yo-yo string made with 100% polyester string. Good for high humidity, whiter than cotton.

Q

R

  • Recessed - A response system that is inset into the yo-yo half, so that it is flush with the wall.
  • Response System - What makes the yo-yo return to your hand.
  • Rim Protectors - Rubber Rings that fit around the yo-yo halves, to protect them from scratches, e.g. while Walking the Dog.
  • Rim Weight - This is the amount of weight found around the outer rim of the yo-yo; generally, the more rim weight that there is on the outer rim, the longer the yo-yo will spin.

S

  • Sidestyle - Tricks or mounts done from a breakaway, such a Trapeze.
  • Silicone - A material used in response systems. Often added as a mod.
  • Shims - Little spacers used to widen the string gap
  • Sleeve bearing - Usually a plastic sleeve that revolves around a metal axle to reduce friction and increase spin time.
  • Slick - String made of polyester and cotton. Depending on thickness also called Slick 6 or Slick 8.
  • Sonic Cleaner - An ultrasonic bath used for thorough cleaning (in this case for bearings).
  • Starburst - A star shaped pattern around the axle which acts as a response system.
  • String - The string usually ties the yo-yo to your finger unless you are doing freehand or offstring.

T

  • Thick Lube - Thick lubricant applied to a transaxle yo-yo to make them more reponsive.
  • Thin Lube - Oil applied to a transaxle yo-yo.
  • Thumb Grind - A type of grind, see Inner Ring Grind for more info.
  • Transaxle - Any form of bearing that reduces friction. This includes sleeve bearings and ball bearings.

U

V

W

  • Wax - Wooden axles can be waxed to reduce friction.
  • Weight Rings - Weight rings can be attached to the halves to make the yo-yo heavier, usually in order to make it spin longer.
  • WYYC - World Yo-Yo Contest

X

Y

  • Yo-Yo - Cool little spinning thingy. For detailed info see Yo-yos.
