Its actually Potugesse. lol, not that it matters, they’re very similar…

I havent spoken Portugesse in a while, so it may not turn out super perfect, but I’ll try my best.

This is what it looks like…

Hi, my name is Romulo a yoyo player from Brazil, I don’t speak very good English so I’m using google translator  
I expect to be wecomed (eh?)  
Thanks  
And if you’d like, add me on MSN:  
[rominho\_naruto@hotmail.com](mailto:rominho_naruto@hotmail.com)🙂  
And I’ve been playing 6 months.

Well, I tried my best…  
The “I expect to be wecomed” part doesn’t sound proper, but its kind of what it says… :-\

Also…He said in there he was using Google translator, but probably only small parts were actually translated.

I see more Brazillinans on here, and I’m happy. 🙂

Welcome!

Canadian Hey!

37 … married kids … bla bla bla … I’m a professional geek (software developper)… Always had a yo-yo or 12 … never really played (i got em just cause i though they where nice work of engineering)…

So there it goes … monday i pass by a toy shop … i see a metal zero in the window and say to my self … hey i havent bought a yoyo in 8 years (when my son was born)… i start playing and about 15 minutes into it i realize i have expired my “repertoire” … about 10 times …

do a little search on the net an BEHOLD [yoyoexpert.com](http://yoyoexpert.com) …  
Now i just realized i spent 3 hours a day practicing yoyo and i cant get enough … who would of know …

so i’m waiting for new yoyos in the mail (ok i’m obsessive … i didnt play and had 8 yo-yos … now thats just going to make 12 …)

hi to all, call me Guss!  
i found this website when i was watching André’s tutorials on youtube. i started yoyoing againin june with a “Viper” by Henry’s. it cost something about 33€, converted maybe 45$. It does well for beginning with yoyoing bechause it has a adjustable axle and you can play loop and string tricks with it. in 6th grade i had a yomega with brain, but i borrowed a friend who moved and never gave back to me. :o Now i MUST HAVE a better yoyo, it’s too long till cristmas, so I ordered a Dark Magic!  
I HOPE it comes tomorrow or i’ll have to wait THE WHOLE WEEKEND!  
with the Dark Magic i can continue with expert part 1.

a first tip of mine: learn “triple tower” on youtube, it’s a great trick but you have to watch the video a couple times…  
Guss

Wussup community! The names Preston. I love my FH0 and love the styles 1A and 5A the most. This is my very first time talking to anybody that yo-yos other than myself. I hope to further my skill in the art of yo-yoing. I am currently finishing up in the Advanced - 2 section. Fav colors are red and green. ;D

Hey guys! This is the coolest site ever! i have learned so much in like, a week from this place. before I would hop around from site to site looking for things to learn. Then I saw a video of Andre, my yo-savior, and went on a hunt to find more of his videos. Soon I stumbled across yoyoexpert, and vuala! i am looking a the learn section with my hero throwing down tricks for me to learn. now i am a member and blah blah blah. I Freakin’ Love Yo-yos! I Throw a Henry’s Cobra, Which is pretty decent for a yo-yo noob like myself. Is there a term for people like me? i’d like to know so i feel less of a noob and call myself one. I’m getting better tho i can do a few tricks in the advanced section… any ways thats me in a nutshell. oh ya hey before i forget… What are anyones thoughts for a new yoyo? Im thinking a Leagacy Cos I’m What people call “on a budget” ha ha ha ha! Well ya um… keep it fresh doods… and laidies

Welcome! Id say take the title of “Beginner” and as for upgrading I’d go Die-Nasty, Legacy, PGM, or a YYJ Metal rimmed yoyo…

I listed them from cheapest to priciest… I reccomend one of the first two though…
