Hey Evan! My question is if you didn’t start yoyoing, what would’ve you done instead? ---

I freaking love making music, and I wish I had more time to do so actually. ---

Wouldn’t it make sense for you to make your own music for your freestyles? ---

Very cool Andre, thanks for your reply. I have been watching your videos since 2009… only a tinkerer. My friend Alvin started a yo-yo company called foxland precision around that time and he got me into yo-yos. I have your model from then too and now getting more with the mystery boxes you guys are doing! Great marketing BTW!
