Description

The breakaway is a three crack pattern that adds a horizontal sweeping crack to the end of a regular or overhead Fast Figure Eight. The breakaway has a nice even rhythm and is a great way to quickly change planes. Because the third crack in the breakaway is what makes this trick distinct, that single crack is also sometimes called the "breakaway crack."
