Are you right handed or left handed?

I recently re edited a whole video for left handed players (shameless plug https://youtu.be/RDc2o8qTi60) and after spending hours redoing what i already done, i wondered what percentage of players are even left handed being that most tutorials seem to be for right handed players.

I feel like most issues with this could be resolved by just using the terms “throw hand” and “non-throw hand” instead of right and left.

100% true but the slight perfectionist in me wont allow it haha. Ive gotten comments on how it actually helped them remember it easier as its easier to not mis remember 2 identical sounding words. And i remember this really bothering me when i first started off for a few months, like yeah i got used to it but still is unideal imo

That’s valid. I think its awesome that you’re trying to make yoyo easier and more accessible. And, I’d say, you’re doing an excellent job!

I write with my left hand but throw stuff with my right, including yoyos.

Same here. I can’t think of anything I do lefty except write and eat.

i think with yoyoers as a group, there is a higher average percentage of lefties than the world average which i believe is like 10%…

Idk, including my post from reddit with 7 righties to 1 lefty it skews it even more to the direction of righty. But the sample size is also like miniscule

Consider this, 1/10 is 10%. So 1 out of 7 is higher than average, about 14%. Im bad at math so if im way off here’s the disclaimer, lol.

We’re at 26% now. Right on, no wait, Left on!

Also there’s this thread which might not be the first either
