hey hey, Joel here from Portugal, started this with an Active People Dark Gem (fixed-axle, could suck more though) almost 6 months ago and now I have already too many yoyos (2 Sunsets for 2A, DM and a Lyn Fury for 1A, Hayabusa for 4A and a Legacy for 5A). Still a beginner but trying to improve on every of the above styles at the same time. Keep it spinning, Joel ---

I’m Scott from Utah. I’m 35 and started yoyoing 11 years ago during the craze. I wasn’t it it too long becuase of life changes (kids), but now that my kids are older they have expressed interest in yoyoing and it has piqued my interest in getting back into the hobby… All of my yoyos I have are from 11 years ago. They are all Playmaxx/Proyo brand. I used to use a Bumblebee GT, but now my kids use that and my X-Ray Bee, so I have moved up to my Cold Fusion GT. I love the Cold Fusion GT and wish I would have used it back when i knew tricks becuase it is so responsive. I am able to do tricks I couldn’t do 11 years ago… I consider myself a beginner, but the tricks are coming back slowly. ---

Hey guys. I’m Nathaniel from good old Maryland, and I was into yoyoing in the Third Grade, back when X-Brain was the real deal. I was able to do some basic tricks, but after going through 3 of them, due to brothers, I lost interest. I picked it back up again when revisting my highschool last year. My friend had a Kickslide I think, and handed it off to me. The minute I threw it, it was magic and a month later, I’m sharpening my skills and brushing some rust off with a Raider. I’ve been hooked ever since. ENEME is my hands down choice at the moment, and I carry it with me everywhere I go, cause you never know :wink: ---

Hello, I started yoyoing a few months back in November. I bought a duncan FH0 on sale for 10 bucks and never thought I would spend more than that on a yoyo. When it arrived in the mail I played with it watching tutorials on Youtube until the string broke. The next day I went to walmart to buy a $3 butterfly just to use the string. Within a few days I bought 100 pack of string a Dark Magic. I was yoyoing for about 2-4 hours a day, learning as much as I could. Exactly one week after I started I went to a yoyo meet in Indianapolis where the guys helped me learn a lot more, and showed me some of the yoyos they throw. Today I am embarrassed about how much time and money I have spent on machined metal and plastic, but I dont plan to stop. 😛 ---

I used to be pretty good when I was a kid in the 50’s. All we had back then were wooden Duncans. I am blown away about all the options for yoyo’s today. I’d like to get a yoyo so I can show my grandkids how good I used to be. I can do all the beginner tricks, but I don’t know anything about the string tricks. Any suggestions on a yoyo for me. I would like to learn the trapese and hopefully move on from there. Do I have to get an unresponsive yoyo and learn binding? Thanks for any advise. Shine ---

hello, my name is Melvin Ju ( nicknamed Buffallo Junior). I live in Australia and I’ve been practicing for about 4 months already. I can already do all the tricks on yoyoexpert except for three. I really want to get in contests but don’t know where they are. My favourite yoyos are dark magic, dna, eneme, bigyo and axiom. I like pretty much all the tricks but there are only about three tricks i need help on (seasick, yuuki slack and hook). I’ve got a collection of 18 yoyos but i know i will be getting more. I first found these videos on youtube and decided to go on the website so I can buy some new yoyos instead of getting stuck on the Ned cosmic spin. ---
