Playing with a spintops consists of throwing the "spintop" and having it spin on the floor.
Because of its shape, a spintop spins on its axis and swirls around its conic tip which is usually made of iron or steel.
A spintop uses a string wrapped around it to get the necessary spin needed.
The player must roll the cord around the spintop from the metallic tip up.
The user must then tie the string in a knot on the button-shaped tip before releasing it.
When rolling the cord around the spintop it must be done so that the cord is tightly attached to it. The technique for throwing a spintop varies.
One end of the cord must be rolled around the player's fingers and with the same hand the spintopspintops must be held with the metallic tip facing upwards.
