My name is Joe.  
You can start all the crud you want with me, cause that’s how I roll.  
I knew Andre from before he was an expert, he was just ‘really, really, really good.’ I once made him sleep on the floor of a hotel, cause that’s how I roll.

Ummm… all these - “Oh HI!!! blah blah blah” things… you don’t need them for every member. If they make a post then say later or PM them saying “Oh hi welcome!” but don’t do it here because it is kinda rude and it seems like spam. I dont want to offend you but i think it isnt the best quality post.

I agree Evan, and I made a post in this topic similar to this earlier, but Mage insisted to give everyone a welcome, so… :-\ But really, I think it is a form of spamming as well.

Hello everyone,  
My name is Paul and I’m 56 yrs old. My renewed interest in yo yo’s came when the family was watching the Smother Bros. show in the 80’s with my 2 sons, when they saw Yo Yo Man Tom Smothers. They thought he was real cool. So I dug out 3 Duncan Imperials and they were off on their own state of YO.

Hello this is Eric Dong from Hong Kong  
I played yoyo when I was about 11 for a few months then quitted. Maybe because it was too hard and I couldn’t even do a trapeze.  
And I started playing just a month ago. Still learning the most basic tricks like barrel rolls and split the atom, etc.  
My short term goal is to finish most of the simple trick by a yomega fireball, and then buy a DarkMagic for harder string tricks.

Hey! My parents are from Hong Kong. I have actually been there once. I haven’t seen anyone in Hong Kong yoyo though hahaha. The Dark Magic is a great choice. Make sure you know how to bind first!

Here is the one in the learn section.

I like the learn section one though. You can use both to get it just right.
