Oooh! Can’t wait to watch this one! Thanks, Doc.

I used to work with Mark back a handful of years ago. He gave us a sweet yo-yo demo prior to a presentation! Everyone was in awe. :yo-yo:

I’m not sure if he has one he uses.

If anyone’s interested in some of tricks Mark showed from the interview, I found an old youtube post from him.

Was trying to work out the one starting with the wrist mount.
