Week 4: Bark at the Moon with 5A May!
Hey Metal Magicians and Wylde Weight-Throwers! It’s been a ride, but we’ve made it to the last week of 5A May! Let’s make it special; get ready to embrace the darkness, master these last tricks, and join the YoYo Boomer Club for an electrifying finale of counterweight cadence. Where every spin is a journey into the unknown!
The swag is ready and ripe for the picking, so let’s see those videos! Don’t lose your head trying our batty beginner’s trick ladder. Our advanced trick of the week will make you feel like Iron Man; and don’t forget to show us your Mr. Crowley combos and new moves with our freeform submission!
All of these can have you screaming “Mama, I’m Coming Home…with some sweet prizes!” Can you conquer the darkness and become a yo-yo legend?
With such fun to be had, you might be feeling Paranoid, but it’s all good, and we’ll have you becoming a yo-yo virtuoso in no time! Shred those tricks, but not your strings, and show us what you’ve got, and we’ll See You On The Other Side.
I Don’t Wanna Stop, it’s been such a fun month, but No More Tears, the YYBC will still be here for your yo-yo needs. Thank you all for trusting in us and participating.
“Shaaarooon!.. … …grab that merch!”
