How to Use Them

To use them simply hold the center of the string and lift one of the tennis balls allowing it to bounce off the other. When it bounces off, lift/jerk the string to separate the tennis balls and give it lift. Once you've gotten good at it move your hand up and down to make a 180 degree.
