I am a total newb to the world of yo. I just started about two weeks ago. I am getting pretty good at a couple of tricks, but the problem that I have is of course after a few tricks, the string starts to twist tighter and tighter(right handed thrower). I read somewhere, that there are few tricks out there that will loosen the string for a right handed thrower. Can someone tell me what they are? I get tired of taking the string off my hand to untwist my mess.
Thanks in advance for any help.
This sight is awesome by the way. I have already learned a ton from this place.

there are a couple. UFO- throwing the yoyo sideways , it's usually used on responcive yoyos the other one i don't know how to name it, the point is that you go in split the atom mount, let all the strings hand on your throwhand then pull the middle string with left hand and it should untwist (it also causes yoyo to tilt a little bit ) but you should be able to perform a bind until it really stops.(there is great tutorial by Hary Houdini,i'm just bit lazy to search) my personal favourite trick - hold the yoyo in your left hand untie the string from your right , release the string and the magic happens by itself  |

http://www.dif-spinners.com/videos.htmbut also check out Willies sportster video, he does what I always call a washing machine although there is a Dr Popular trick of the same name and unrelated. I don't pull out the string so far, but anyway. Useful trick,, and a good one when the yoyo has been in your pocket a while, my first actually. Speaking of Willie, he doesn't get much attention these days, but he was a solid and consistent player. Always throws with authority in those vids

this video? that's the same one that nikoloz was talking talking about.
i usually do a sidewinder like in this master magic video (link below) except with an unresponsive yo-yo it just falls back down after winding instead of returning to your hand. i usually use my non throw hand to kind of direct the string more to the side of the yo-yo. you can do it multiple times on the same throw as well if it doesn't wind enough.
