I was thinking about this to myself today and recalling a particular experience I had years ago. It was shortly after CLYW had released the basselope. I loved the look of the yoyo and really felt like it could be a yoyo that I would enjoy quite a bit. I ended up purchasing one and upon receiving this yoyo, I realized to myself that I really had not paid much attention to the player who’s signature yoyo this actually was. I had heard the name “Sebastian Brock” tossed around here and there, and through scrolling through videos on the web, I had glanced at his name here and there, but for whatever reason, I never felt very compelled to actually click and watch his tricks. As I played the basselope, I felt it was easily one of my all time favorite yoyos, and if it was built to the specifications of a certain player, I had to see what this players style was all about. Turns out, Sebastian was one of the most unique and interesting players I had ever seen throw a yoyo and quickly he became one of my all time favorite 1A players to follow. I feel so grateful that the basselope actually led me to watch and see his tricks for myself as I would not have known without that nudge to do so most likely. Was curious if any of you had a similar experience? Has a yoyo made for a player ever made you wonder and check out to see who that player was? I am grateful that my basselope was able to do just that! ![](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/yoyoexpert1/original/4X/f/7/9/f79f668fda67eac867203494a8756317424d7a14.jpeg) ---

yoyoing in general helped me find this community full of players… anyway looking into certain yyf yoyos introduced me to yuki spencer who i know alot of people consider one of the greatest yoyoers to ever throw a sleeper. ---

The RecRev Octave Gen 3 I got as my first “high end” inspired me to look into Anthony Rojas, and that is a decision I don’t regret at all. Anthony Rojas is such a crazy good player. Wish I still had my Octave 3 sometimes, but it was fairly heavy playing, and I moved it for something I enjoy much more anyway. The markmont. Next also got me seriously interested in Markmont’s yoyo vids, good stuff for sure uhhh… not much after that. I found Janos while still thinking that Duncan was the only good company ever when I started. Didn’t know just how good of a player I had found, just new he was really good and associated with Duncan ---

Yeah this happens lots of times for me, why? Cause I don’t really pay attention to the actually signature of whose is it? For me is “wow this Yoyo is really good?” and then realizing “oh cool it’s actually a signature Yoyo! They got a good taste in yoyos!” ---

Sebby is a great player and a great person to talk to. If you haven’t met him, he’s at almost every contest in the Southeast region throughout the year.
