Submission closed. Thanks everyone for participating next one will kick off around 9am Eastern today in a new thread and prize winners for week 1 will be announced by Monday if not earlier. Need our resident bean counter to get back from vacay and confirm the numbers so we can ensure accuracy before passing off the drawing to a non participant to video the results for yall. Hopefully the following weeks we will have a quicker turnaround but life is busy and time is fleeting. ---

I’m so surprised by the turn out so far. I couldn’t even imagine something like this being organized so well back when I first started throwing. I make it sound like I go way back lol. I started back in the small boom of the early 00’s. That’s almost 20 years ago now, jeez I feel old now. It’s an awesome feeling to see so many people coming together, having fun and encouraging each other. I had a ton of fun pushing myself to learn some new stuff. That fun was definitely mixed with frustration trying to nail the Mysto Set before the deadline 🙃 which I’m sure was felt by a lot of you too. I’d like to also extend the same offer some others have in the thread previously, if you can’t get a yoyo to use for whatever reason. I’d be happy to send you a Butterfly or Imperial so that you can participate also. Just send me a DM. Looking forward to week 2! Give it your all! ---
