Hello all, I’m kinda new to yoyoing, and I’m 13 years of age. I live in California and I’m going to highschool. Right now I have a Lyn Fury, and I am practicing with it everyday. Now my middle finger hurts every night and thus I am forced to cry myself to sleep. Or I just hold my breath until I pass out.

Hello People Of Yo-Yo Expert!! My Name Is Ashley. My Very First Yo-Yo Was The Journey, Then I Got The X-Con, Dark Magic, And Just Recently The New Breed. I Have Only Been Yoyoing For About A Year. It Was A Great Distraction That My Lil Bro And I Took Up After Our Father Died. My Favorite Trick Oddly Enough Would Have To Be The Ripcord And Mach 5. Since They Were The First Tricks That I Mastered. This Is All I Can Think Of…Ok Bye!!

Hello Everyone!  
My name is Serje, im 15, im fond of breakdance and mtb…  
I realized what is yoyo only 2 days ago, when my brother bought YYF Grind Machine. While being in hospital, he saw a boy, who was some kind of champ in Moscow, and asked him to pull of some tricks ;D when he returned, he immediately bought yoyo like that boy had 🙂 … i found this great site while watching expertvillage yoyo videos on youtube 😃

I have one question – is YYF GM (Metal) suitable for beginners?

Yes, Put some duncan friction stickers on the GM and it will be responsive, and suitable for beginners&nbsp; 🙂

If you feel that it is unsuitable for learning the tricks here, you can look at this buying guide to help buy a new yoyo&nbsp; :wink:

I dont know what’s rsmod’s talk about ??? Metals are NOT suitible for beginners. If you get a PLASTIC GM then it would be suitible if you know how to bind, if you dont then listen to rsmod and put duncan fristion stickers on it, but be warned, they wear out FAST.

Most metals are not good for beginners, but its not because they are metal. Its all about the gaps and whatnot. A Grind Machine would be okay like rsmod said, but I would go with a YYJ plastic. I promise they perform!

Hi guys!  
My name is Kyler.  
I’m a 23 year-old American living in Germany.

I just recently got to know YoYo Expert though Mr. Ben McPhee hyping the site on Facebook. I think it’s a great web-site. So informative and professionally done.

My favorite yo-yos are my  
-Kyler (1 of 1) edition 08 888.  
-Mud 07 888 (b-grade).  
-1st run edition Grind Machine 2  
-Gold Skyline  
-Green DNA  
-Purple small bearing Dv888 (most favorite)

My yoyo inspirations are  
-Yuuki Spencer  
-John Ando  
-David Ung  
-Augie Fash  
-Tyler Severance  
-Joe Grave  
-Dave Geigle  
-(last but not least) The members of Team All YoYo

I’ve haven’t really been competing lately. My most recent competition was the 2008 German Masters (7th in 1A, 2nd in 2A, 3rd in 5A). Other than that, I’ve just compteted at the BLC Southwest Regional Yo-Yo Contest in 2004, 2005 and 2007. U.S. Nationals was great also. I competed in all 5 championship divisions but didn’t make it into finals. ☹

Yo-Yoing is my main hobby. Other than that, I like to hang out with friends, listen to music or just spend time online. My favorite color is green. My favorite band is Silverstein. I like pizza, burgers, Dr. Pepper, energy drinks, pandas, penguins, cloudy days, green highlights, and Gir from Invader Zim. ^^

I look forward to getting to know people on this forum and furthering my yo-yo journey.

Kyler\_Yazzie
