"Jennifer "Yo-Yo Princess" Baybrook began yo-yoing when she was six-years old. She soon started performing for schools and fairs around New England. At the age of eight she made her professional debut, performing with the Smothers Brothers. "Her repertoire consists of over 300 different tricks, including two-handed yo-yoing. She can knock a quarter or poker chip off a person’s ear with her yo-yo. She can also light a match with her yo-yo." Jennifer recently won the 1998 World Yo-Yo Championship, becoming the first women to do so."

Infinite Illusions Yo-Yo Instruction
"Ah ha! I found the answer to a question that has plagued me for months: How long should a yo- yo string be? "The official string length for a yo-yo is from the floor to the height of your belly button when the string is on your finger. Measure the length 3" above your belly button. Fold the string over and tie an overhand knot to make the yo-yo loop. Trim off the excess string." With that out of the way, you can progress through the instructions from "Getting Started" to "Spinning Tricks.""

Cosmic Yo-Yos
"When Cosmic Yo-Yo owner Brad Urani was seventeen, he began putting his newly-learned yo-yo tricks on the Web. Three years and 150 tricks later, Brad says his yo-yo trick listing is the biggest on the Net. Each trick is rated for difficulty on a scale of one star (beginner) to five stars (professional). Cosmic welcomes new tricks or questions via email. Other not-to-be-missed clicks are his yo-yo reviews (find out why he thinks the $30 Bumble Bee is a better transaxle yo- yo than the $90 Silver Bullet 2) and his frequently asked questions (starting with the ever-popular "Why won’t my yo-yo sleep?")"
