I think a lot of us would probably be surprised at the average member age here… I’d be it would be higher than expected

69 years old? Don’t let my grandmother hear you say that! My grandparents were married for 75 years, you’re just a baby. Acquiring a few more toys should improve the health!

I’m wondering if there are any older yoyo players out there. I’m in my mind 60s and loving my new hobby.

At 53 I am wondering at what age declining dexterity will noticeably impact my play (more than it might already be impacting it). That’s the one downside to starting this so late in life.

How about old women? I’m 52 and, though I bought several yoyo’s a couple of years ago I just started really trying to learn. My church is in an underprivileged neighborhood and I work with kids both in church and in outreach programs. They light up when I bring out a yoyo and do the very little I can do, but my hope is to encourage them to try something new, productive and positive to work on when there are so many negative influences around them. Yeah… plus I never really grew up.

One of my favorite quotes/toasts-
