Im noob, and made a mistake.. help!

Hi guys, I used to yo yo in middle school… which was like 12 years go now lol. I wanted to get back into it so I bought a Atmosphere… so whats the trick to get this damn thing to respond and return to my hand? haha

I see that its described as an unresponsive yo yo but im guessing u have to get it to return to your hand other wise there would be no need at all for sili response pads…

like I said… ultra noob, any help would be much appreciated!

Welcome back to yoyoing!

The method for returning an unresponsive is called a “Bind”

Our learn section will guide you on your yoyoing adventure. That video will get you in the correct direction for binding. If you have any other questions feel free to ask away, we were all noobs once and we all know how you feel.

Thanks dude!!! that helps just a tad ;D

www.grawrd.com has some stuff as well, otherwise, just search what you need on youtube and you should be right on your way.

Moderator note: Gerard, grawrd, theorganizer basically quit yoyoing and took down all of his tutorials.
See update below

And in case you may not know, you can use the 'Thank You" Button at the top right of the post next time. :slight_smile:

Some other sites with great tutorials are rethinkyoyo.com and highspeedyoyo.com

You can always make it more responsive by lubing the bearing.
It will still play just fine.

You just took me to a Real Estate’s crappy website xD

A few things i can think of that could help you are using a 100% cotton strings, thick lube and learning how to bind.

Lets us know what works for you.

See further notes below.

i’m seeing his Hidemasa Hook tutorial as I type this.

Mods what are you talking about? all gerards videos are still on his site.

grawrd quit yoyoing??? When? what? huh??? how long ago was this?!

OK Looks like something was broken yesterday.  All the ones I had went to that goofy ad page -DG- mentioned.

http://www.grawrd.com/ works today.

And his youtube links were taken down by youtube for complaints.

For example: http://youtube.com/user/theorganizerteachs

He announced it a few weeks ago on another site.

[quote=TheOrganizer;653859]Now, for those of you who are saying, “WHAT??? Have you quit da yoyos?” I will make a video addressing that and the termination of both of my youtube accounts at a later time…
