Wassup,  
My name is Lennon. I’m going on 13 in age. I’ve been yo-yoing for about 5 months and I’ve already learned the Spirit Bomb yo-yo trick. I got in to yo-yoing because my friend showed me it. My friend is a yo-yo fanatic. He’s only 11 years old and he’s almost pro. My favorite yo-yo is the Train Wreck 2 by Spyy. I like yo-yoing because it’s a way of expressing my self, and also it’s fun.

Yo Lennon! I’ve been yo-yoing for 5 months too, and it sounds like we’re on the same level, though I’m going on to master. That’s mostly because of the forums’ help though! 😛

Hello Benny! I suggest the Velocity or Kickside. They can be responsive and then can change to unresponsive very easily. If you need to learn responsive, I would suggest you also get some thick lube to help aid in the responsiveness of the yoyo.

Velocity:

Thick Lube:

Once you get into the level of unresponsive play, I would get some thin lube to make the yoyo unresponsive.

I hope this helps!

Hey guys - I’m a YoYo noob. I dug out an old one earlier, and I ordered a new one right away. I ordered the Velocity from YYF.

Hey all. just call me twice. I’m 25. I have been yoyoing since 1998, but took a hiatus from early 2001 until now. I have forgotten a lot, and yoyos have changed a lot. I’m looking forward to pick up where I left off.

Hi. I’m Yomaster16. (Same name as on youtube). I started throwing for a little over 2 years (about 25 months) but took a break that lasted about 14 months… so… I’ve been yoyoing for about nearly a year.

I’m trying to get better (obviously) and trying to get into the yoyo community.
