You can do barspins and tailwhips without a gyro. There are special kinda of straight cables called 'Linear cables' that have special housing that allows it to be kinked and twisted without locking up your brakes. Your 6 pack will probly come with a regular cable which will be fine for you starting out. Once that breaks or when and if your ready for barspins/tailwhips you can get a linear cable from your local shop or favorite mailorder. Odyssey makes a great linear cable. And all of them are under $10ish.
EDIT: Straight cables are also easier to set up then gyros and cheaper. A tad lighter too.
