Every time I go to shake someone's hand, this happens

It’s so embarrassing

I’m sorry, I have yo-yo hand (scrambles to untie loop)

Just give them the yo-yo handshake and assert dominance.

@sfyoyos Brilliant! :rofl:

And me too code, it seems like this happens at least once a week. Or they will come try to shake my hand while I’m in the process of wrapping up a little trickcircle. A w e k w a r d

Just slip the yo-yo between your index and middle finger and go in for the shake. Or refuse the shake and go for a fist bump.

This happened to me on Christmas. I clumsily let the yo-yo drop and my brother-in-law didn’t miss a beat. He pulled up and we shook hands in time to keep it going up and down a few times.

That has never and will never happen to me… like in never-ever…

Not even a remote possibility.

Virtually impossible.

Left handed?

# TODO:

  1. Fly to SF
  2. Stalk @yoyodoc
  3. Wait till he is mid trick
  4. Run up to shake his hand
  5. Forget I have a yoyo in my own hand
  6. ???

And why would I be in SF ?

:nerd_face:

Yes; I’m a Southpaw. Just like Evan Nagao; minus the skills.

Fly to California you mean

I never noticed this despite watching almost every one of his performances…

Clearly my clever plan needs some refinement. Fortunately I’m left handed as well… though I tend to yo right handed. :man_shrugging:
