When you learn the Eiffel Tower Yo-Yo Trick, you don't have to spend a lot of money to visit the Eiffel Tower. All you need is your yo-yo!
How to Do the Eiffel Tower Yo-Yo Trick:
Step 1: Open your free-hand thumb and forefinger and place it about eight inches below your yo-yo hand and pull the string toward you and up.
Bring your yo-yo hand thumb up to the string.
Step 2: Bring your yo-yo hand thumb against the string in a counterclockwise motion.
Rotate your hands to form an X shape.

Reach over with your free hand and grab the yo-yo string.
Step 4: Reach over with your free hand and grab the string about 18 inches from the yo-yo, pull it through the triangle, and allow the string to slide off of the outside of your thumb and middle fingers.
Pull the string up through the center loop.
Step 5: Finally, pull the yo-yo string up through the loop you just released while catching the hanging string between the yo-yo and ring finger. Display the Eiffel Tower.
