> [@Spencer\_L](#): > > If you used another yoyo, that would almost be 3A. Anyways, once I used a box of paperclips with paperclips in there for weight and taped closed. If you are interested in trying something new, there is a style called A Squared. It was recently invented by John Huber. It involves having two hubstack yoyos on one string. It is very interesting… And very hard. ---

Aww darn. I just siliconed it. I couldn’t use it for the next 24 hours. Plus, I’m kinda camera shy so there’s only a 30% chance I will video myself. Hahah but a siggy would be cool. I sure do hope I win this :wink: ---
