Go East, based on what I’ve heard Yoyo Kangaroo say, is actually a real thing.

Fake: Not real.

Could we get back on topic with 4A now and get off this “Go West/Go East” stuff?

I call counterweight Go West Go East. I’m the only one who does, though, so it’s probably better to call it Counterweight Go West.

Exactly!

Before I saved up enough for a Griffinwing, I used a Duncan butterfly that I painted and put ducktape around the rims. I didn’t and still don’t have many yoyos and (except for my Pinnacle which I tried 4a on and impossible to bind) I try to avoid doing tricks that end up with them on the ground.

You know, if you’re confident you’re the only one doing it and you want to call it “Go East”, then go ahead and claim it.
