Be the first on your block to look into the future and make a prognostication for yo-yos.

I predict that in the near future a jeweler and / or inventor will develop a ring or set of rings to replace the slip knot in yo-yo strings thus ending PURPLE FINGER (finger strangulation). There will be cheap plastic rings for amatures and ones made from precious metals for yo-yo pros.
They already do this for cheap yoyos, and it will make it easier for the string to come off of your finger. Actually, all you would need to do was get a ring, and tie your string to it.
If the ring was sized properly for the correct part of the finger perhaps not. What about some type of strap? That would give more surface area then strings do also with maybe some new way of adjusting it.
no bs, i have actually thought about this for awhile, I recall seeing them on the “yoyo ball” commercials as a child but i got something better. Be patient i dont get purple finger but Ihate adjusting string tension. Hehe
I was thinking yesterday, what if you had 2 yoyos, at either ends of the same string. I can’t imagine the dynamics of binding and throwing, but you’d be able to do some cool nunchuck style stuff with them, as well as a lot of 2a-ish sort of stuff.
I’m not saying it’s a good idea, nor that its my idea, but it’s an idea.
