All of us, he is reffering to the mental “ben” that we all place in our minds. It is justice to the unsung hero that is Ben. Ben has been in our schools, No, our hearts this whole time. And as he steps up with the poetic Alias of #5YoYo, you mistake him for “just another” Wait… I dont know anybody named ben, disregard that last paragraph 😛 ---

Hello! I’ve been yoyoing for maybe 4 months now. Can do the zipper, Atomic Bomb, and sometimes the Matrix. I’ve always wanted to yoyo and on valentines day my mom got me an Imperial Duncan. Duncan = Love right? My current throw of choice is the DMII. How could it not be! ---

Hi, I’m Rick Cobb… been around the board for a long time, but never added myself here. I mostly throw offstring; I’m proud to be old enough to be the father (heck, grandfather) of many of the off-string players I’ve competed against (well, lost to ;D ) at BAC, PNWR, Cal States, etc. I’ve been a regular SpinDoctor since 2000. Been modern yoyoing since Christmas 1998, and was a good grade school player back in, oh, '71 or so. If Mark Torango’s still in yoyoing, well, I’ll hope to see him (or your grandkids) @ NER. Favorite yoyo is the Fiesta; I’m looking forward to the Fiesta Dos… but I’m glad I bought a dozen of the originals 🙂 I’m a complete Yoyojam fanatic… I hate having fiddly bits fall out when I take a yo apart. In my non-Yoyo time, I write software, build furniture, hang with my absolutely fabulous wife, and listen to instrumental surf music. ---

Howdy from Austin Texas. Im new to the forum. The only forum Ive been a part of was the one at Dave’s skilltoys a while ago. I was xnatethegreatx, if you happen to remember. I liked this store and this forum seemed active so I thought I’d join. Ive been throwing for a few years. I think Id be considered old school( Im 28 yrs old) I remember when the best bearing yo-yo around (that I could find) was a raider. The nojive was my first and is still one of my favorites. Right now Ive been throwing the G5. I had been away from the virtual yoyo world for a few years and am amazed at how quickly this sport is evolving. ---

Hi Yoers: I’m Ronnie Plotner. Have been fond of yo’s since I was a kid. Now I’m 62 years old and still love yo’s. I’ve been married to a lovely wife, Ann, for 27 years. We have 2 daughters and a son–that now has come to 7 grand-kids. The 7th was born May 23, 2011. His name is Dylan and is only 5 days old. Our kids and grand-kids are all walking with the Lord Jesus Christ. What a blessing. My favorite yo’s are the Handquake modified, the Mongoose, the Bumble Bee and wooden yo’s for looping. In fact, my favorite looping yo only cost $1.44 wholesale. That was when I had an online yo site in 1998-99 (Yo-Ronco Toys). I still loop with it. If any of you know someone willing to sell his/her Mongoose Pilot Mod Yo-Yo, I’m interested in purchasing it. All about Jesus, Ronnie :🙂 ---
