Hey everyone, my name is Peff and i’m pretty much here to learn more about the community. 😃

i’m studying to be a mechanical engineer and i should be certified in Solidworks soon. I’d love to model some yoyos while i’m here so if anyone actually wants to test my skills and make a request i’ll try to get it in between schoolwork and work.

I started yoyoing a few years ago in my sophomore year of high school, i’m now in my freshman year of college and joined the forums hoping to get back into it and meet some new people.

Hello,  
My name is Aaron, and at 41, I’m brand new to yo-yos. After a recent trip to visit family in Chico, CA - where I saw my 8yo nephew rock his YYF Cyborg like a boss - I knew I had to give it a shot. My nephew brought me to his favorite shop, Bird in Hand, and introduced me to his “buddy” Gentry Stein… who, as it happens, works at the shop when he can, and helps teach the kids at Chico Yo-Yo Club most Saturdays. (I had no idea that Chico was such a hotbed of yo-yo talent, with such amazing opportunity to not only rub elbows with a world champion, but learn from him too!)  
So, being inspired, I bought a Chico Bulldog 225, and started learning… a few days later, before flying back home, I even got certified on the 10 tricks on their “level 1” card, which earned me a souvenir shirt to go with it. 8) (Zipper took me hours to learn; the other nine weren’t too bad).

Anyway, I’m happy to have found a fun new hobby, and what looks to be a great forum to learn and share information!

Haii my name is Machu(nickname that ppl call me). I am 12, and I like to yoyo. My two most favorite yoyos are the yoyo factory horizon and the yomega prodigy. I started back in 2011 with the beginner yoyos. I had a yomega nebula. Then I got a Duncan metal drifter. I started getting hurt with my metal drifter which discouraged me and made me stop. I started again in 2014 September. My favorite yoyoers would have to be Brandon Vu(Australias yoyo champion) and hajime Miura(3a worlds snjrisbfofh u should know by now who he his). I use Erik Koloskis venom string by yoyostringlab. I forgot about another one of my first yoyos(yomega xodus II). I could do 1a, 4a, and 5a. Those are all the things I could think of at the top of my head that I could explain about myself that’s related to yoyoing. MACHU OUT
