As we roll into April what are some tutorials or advice you found helpful in looping and in learning to use two loopy yo-yos. This could be anything from beginner to more advanced and everything in between. Dazzling Dave comes to mind for me.

I want to get another pair of loopers currently using magic yoyo ghz I can get yyf 360 / 720 / yomega raiders Which would have less maintence? I have thick lube and loads of normal string is there anything else i may need? ---

What is your current maintenance like? The 720 has been my most reliable looper. Highly recommend. No real tweaking needs just pick your spacer colors and go. I lube it every 3rd or 4th string change, but I do that with all my loopers. ---

I would _not_ recommend Raiders if low maintenance is your goal. They take a tricky to execute mod to get set up correctly. ---

Currently 0 maintence done im getting 10 maybe 20 mins a day practise and my ghz are still nice and responsive and only had to swap strings when i got a knot. Should i swap both strings at same time or doesnt it matter? Im only at starting stage in 2a mainly getting my non dom hand used to forward pass and 1 loop ---

How often you change strings is up to you. I basically change the string every time I play a pair and I usually play the pair for the whole day, but I have a deep rotation of pairs. ---

We at YYBC asked Dazling Dave to do a part 2 of his how to loop video for 2April. I think some of these tips are solid for continuing into simple tricks after getting a bit consistent with looping.
