Hi there, I am Richard, a 42 year old Scotsman who lives in New Zealand. Had Russell Sprite yoyo in the 80s,stopped, picked it up again briefly around 2007 but couldnt find any tutorials etc at the time or anyone in to yoyos so stopped and a year ago my son got me a dollar store yoyo at my birthday that got me interested again. A year later and about 8 yoyos later here I am and I have only just learned Jade Whip. ---
