    Setup

    The Teflon tube should have an inner diameter sufficiently large that the string attached to the ball can easily be threaded through it.

    The yo-yo should be wide and preferably have rubber “tires” so it can easily be rolled on a tabletop. The Duncan Throw Monkey model works well.
