We had one of these about six months ago with a small group of guys. TMcertified set it up. It was ALOT of fun! Dynikus, i’m sure you remember. It was a good natured little competition. I was just thinking the other day how we should do another one now that we all have some experience, just to see how much better we all have gotten. Does anyone else remember that? ---

You have been yoyoing for only 5 month?? I’ve been throwing for almost 9 month and i’m reallay not that good!! Qhere have you been learning those tricks? Well thanks! I’ve gotten better even in the past week, earning some chopstick stuff and slack stuff. I went through the motions of learning allot of the tricks on the YYE site, then when i started to get bored i’d look up other tutorials or made up tricks on my own. ---
