Hello, my name is Tommy Henthorne. Iām 15, and Iāve been yoyoing since November of 2011. I was referred to this site by my good friend James, who recently won a MonkeyFingeR contest for most influential in a community for yoyos. My favorite trick is the Gyroscopic Flop, and my favorite yoyo Iāve thrown is a One Drop Cafe Racer. I hope to be good enough to participate in competitions in the Tampa/Orlando area.

Greetings and Salutationsā¦ My name is T.J. and Iām from Toledo Ohio. I used to host the annual Spin & Grill contest/cookouts every summer, but fell out about 7 years ago (fatherhood kinda took over). Now my daughter is 12 and has (FINALLY) taken an interest in yoyoing, which in turn has gotten me excited about the sport again. Sheās learning very quickly and Iām hoping she will stick with it. Stoked to be back and learning some of these new mind boggling tricks !!! \m/ 8) \m/
Hello everyone Iām Tyler Nunez from Reno Nv, I currently have 3 throws and I love playing with all of them. First one is a Onedrop Dang, the other is a 54 from Onedrop and my last one is a SPYY Supra pro series.
Names Jeff. I am a 45 year old father of two young boys. My 8 year old has been bugging me for a yo yo. 10 year old decided he didnāt want to be left out. Bought a couple of Butterflies. Boys quickly lost interest. Problem is I didnāt. I started researching things and was blown away by all that is out there. There is so much out there, I donāt know where to start. By day, I am a high school teacher. By night, you will find me on my Xbox. Anything else, just ask.

Welcome to the YoYoExpert Forums!
If this is your first time please take a minute to introduce yourself. Just share a bit about yourself, your favorite yo-yos or tricks, and how you found out about YoYoExpert.
Hello again throwers!
Itās been a lengthy and interesting past two or three years. Because of this, I had to stop my habit of throwing. I picked up a few more hobbies,
and my marks in school began to suffer. The situation was to drop a few things, or fail out of school. Yoyoing didnāt make the cut. Iāve missed the scene for sure.
When I left off, it was the year after Ando won the A division at the WYYC (At least that is what I believe happened). I checked back in from time to
time, playstyle certainly has shown the passing of time.
So my questions for you all is what all has gone on in the last twoish years? What have I missed? Any new yo-yo companies emerge that have been
promising? New styles? Recommend any new yo-yos?
Thanks for your time, and itās good to be back!
PS: I used to be a very active member on the other site. (Iām not sure how the moderators feel about name saying). When I left, it was booming, and the store was doing well, and I come back and the store is gone, and the forums are far slower than they used to be. How many of you have come from the other place? Hopefully youāve gotten from my context which place Iām speaking of, which nation.

Hey Iām Shawn, 20 years old and enjoy learning all sorts of practical and skillful activities. Right now I mostly just use my Dark Magic 2 but I also have a Grind Machine, Mighty Flea, FHZ Pulse, and a few other beginner Duncans from when I first started back in high school. Iām glad to be here!
Hi, my name is Danny and I just started yoyoing on Thursday when I got my brand new YYJ Chaser.(iāve been practicing pretty hard and now it has some scratches already.)So far, I can do the sleeper,walk the dog,creeper,forward pass,around the world,rock the baby,jamaican flag,eiffel tower,breakaway,pop the clutch,UFO,Trapeze,and Dizzy baby. ;D
Hi there folks. My name is Denis and iāve been yoyoing for about 10 months and had some problems back then with my studies, because i simply coudnā stop playing with my grind machine( all day and night ; eat, sleep and yoyo). Eventualy things started going really well so i could afford a nice little Dark Magic.
After an 888x and finally a SPYY Addiction (sincerely the best yoyo i ve ever laid my hands on).Now im getting a YYf SuperStar for my b-day.
My favorite yoyo players are: Andre, Jensen Kimmit, Augie Fash and Jason P Lee.
Looking forward to seeing you on the forums ppl
Hi!
Thanks for setting up this site! My son is 11 years-old and has been a Yo-yo enthusiast for about two years. Is there anyone in the Austin, Texas area who knows of some tweens who like to practice Yo-yo?
Thanks in advance!
LLO
Hey everyone! My name is Jade. Im am new to yo yoing as well, but I seem to be picking it up quickly. I learned the Trapeze, Jamaican flag, and Eiffel tower yesterday. Im using a dark magic II that I got in the mail =P I hope to keep learning and thanks to this website I feel Im well on my way!!
Hey all, WarGirl saying hi from the beautiful (sarcasm, neh?) Great Lakes, Illinois. Iām almost 21, and in the U.S. Navy. iāve been learning a few things from the videos here on a Metal Drifter with a Konkave bearing i picked up here, and just bought a DM-II and hope to get into more technical tricks. currently stuck in the intermediate category (using the video tuts for reference) as my 'yo is a bit too responsive using friction stickers. hoping to get good at whips and highly technical string tricks.
love 'yall,
WarGIRL
Welcome to the forums and the fantastic sport of yoyoing!
Are you in A school? I used to be in the Navy.
Hello everyone. I found this website via Google. I am here because I know nothing about a yo yo or a top. I want to learn and start to learn this skill/hobby as a way of fun and enjoyment. I am pretty much blind as well. I was born with Optic Atrophy and have been able to see, but several weeks a go my eyes took a turn for the worst and in a nut shell the eye doctors have no idea why. Their reply in a nutshell was that my Optic Nerves are simply degrading furtherā¦and that was the best they could come up with. I have no idea where to start with Yo-Yo-ing or tops. There are so many brands and models to pick from and various prices as well. My goal is to have fun, not to compete in a contestā¦as of now anyway. Is this a skill that requires good eye site or is it more about feel and touch? Where do I start in the world of Yo-Yo-ing? Which items are a good bang for the buck, great value for money and will allow a beginner to learn and grow? I am also interested in tops, so I am looking for the same thingā¦value for money, great bang for the buck. Like I said my goal is to have fun, and also get my almost four year old daughter involved and see if she would enjoy this as well.
