have you ever noticed when your yoyoing some where special or something you kind of zone out. like i just got back from being outside (which is 44 degrees [to some is not too cold]) with music blasting in my ears and everything seemed to have like not matter except for me and the yoyo. do any of my fellow yoyoers (or anyone with a special toy skills) have a moment or places where it’s like just you and the yoyo (or skill toy)? ---

Are you sure you’re from the United States? It sounds like English isn’t your first language and you’ve only been speaking it for maybe a few years. ---

I’ve heard people talk about some meditative state like this before, but I have never achieved it. The closest I’ve gotten is like an intensive session where I may come up with a new combo or put together a freestyle with sweat pouring down my face and immense thirst, but I guess, like lucid dreaming, it takes a special skill to reach this “zone”. ---

For me all it takes is the help of a little green friend who lives in my pocket from time to time. Quite honestly, it’s an incredible feeling unlike any other. ---

Anywhere I yo-yo I feel like me and the yo-yo are the only thing there. I usually have my Ipod in and I’m usually listening to Amon Amarth, but I still pay attention to surroundings…sometimes… I broke a ceiling fan doing Eli hops because I didn’t know it was there… ---

When I yoyo’d for a talent show, right when I got up there, I couldn’t even speak (HUGE stage fright) As soon as I threw my yoyo into double or nothing, my mind went blank, and it was just me 🙂
