LLCYY .. Ladies Love Cool Yo-Yo
Thank you! Iām gonna have to get my YouTube working again to post here, Iāll try to!
i was throwing in firestone getting a tire changed and after a while when i took a break a woman approached me and told me she had been watching and was amazed and started asking me lots of questions. we chatted for a while and when we parted she told me she thought i was amazing and that i had made her day. itās nice when ppl give the good feels back. Iāve never had anyone be negative but even if i did, experiences like today make it worth it
I often yoyo at the local food pantry where I volunteer. I help load food into patronās cars. While I wait I just throw around. A few individuals have commented and they were impressed with the couple tricks I knew. Itās always heartening to know I made their day. Itās part of being a missionary, after all.
Thats awsome, Iām hoping to be able to bring some throws on my misson thatās coming up, yoyoing always seems to bring up peoples spirits and itās fun to bring that to other people
Iām the only service missionary who throws in my area, but there are at least 2 teaching missionaries who throw. They arenāt able to do it often though, because theyāre teaching lol
Thatās awesome, Iām hoping its not going to be an issue to bring a case of like 8 throws while Iām out on mine
One I know has at least 5. Just know youāll probably have a hard time maintaining them.
You make a good point, may gotta rework that I bring
I was buying socks yesterday and the girl ringing me up pointed at my yoyo and asked if I knew any cool tricks. I was like āyou know itā and ran through some autopilot combos and did a sky bind and she was all excited and said I made her day. I love yoyoing out in public.
Donāt worry too much. To give you an idea one missionary came over with his companion and he brought a HiDRA, an Edge and a Turntable 2. Just know that on a mission, yoyos do not come first or even second.
A security associate at my job saw me throwing some stalls and planet hops with my SB2 and asked if it can sleep. I threw a sleeper and he was delighted.
Early on in my current yoyo phase (probably 2021 or 2022) I was yoyoing at one of my favorite restaurants while waiting for a take-out order. Someone came up to me and started talking yoyo. Turns out his father was a demonstrator and he could yoyo a bit. I think I even got his number and sent a text or two back and forth, but I never got the invite to meet his dad or anything.
I love this! Yet another indication that yo-yo people are good people. My partner and I work here with the Alameda food bank.
Iām just greateful that yo-yoing is another tool in my missionary arsenal.
Itās been a replacement, a conversation starter, and a challenge all at the same time
Yoyo all the time in public with my son and shoot weāve never meet any one else out here in my parts of Texas sadly.
We gotta evangelize! Share the yo-yo love. Get people interested, anyone who walks up and seems into it.. engage them.
I keep a butterfly in my bag specifically to give away to anyone who is remotely interested. I stock up when Target has em in the bargain bins for 3 bucks
In college I would yoyo a fair bit on the way to classes. My leather yoyo holster would get students giggling, but some people were interested in the actual yoyoing
I should start bringing a yoyo out and about with me again.
i tech at a local art center and one of my students comes up to me with a cardboard yoyo (wish i got a photo) asking me to help him perfect it.
i proceeded to fangirl about yo-yos with this 12 year
old and he totally bragged about being able to do godspeed
only experience iāve had meeting an irl thrower lol
