My name is Taylor
I am from Wyoming, [yes i know, not very many from there] but I live in the Dominican Republic now
I am fourteen, [yes a little young]
I am at about an intermediate level
My favorite type of trick is any kind of whip trick. Jade Whip especially.
One amazing talent that I have is that I can solve a Rubik’s Cube.
Yoyoing, Rubik’s cubes, and sometimes magic are my three main hobbies that i love to do.
At the moment, I dont have much in the way of yoyo stuff.
If anybody is looking to give away something they dont want, [probably no chance], message me and I will tell you what I think of it.
Other than that, that is pretty much all i have to say. I do have a YouTube, with a lot of gaming stuff, but I will start to post a lot of yoyo videos soon. As soon as I do, I will put my YouTube link by my avatar. This is who I am so ya, BYE.

Hello, my name is Enk. I’m a 17-year old from Thailand.

Kinda new to yoyoing here. >_< I’ve been throwing for around 3-4 months. I do only offstring though so I don’t know much about other divisions. I tried 1A but the string tension problem frustrated me off so badly that I stopped doing it. The yoyo I’m using right now is Adegle Whale. I’m getting a hayabusa soon, though. [yay, christmas]

I come here in hope to find a good community and some good yoyoers to give me advices.

Good day, everyone =)

hey, i’m goose.
been throwin’ for a year.
i love spyy return tops.
glad to be here.

hey ladies and gents:)my names barrett aka bear and this is not my first time here on the yoyoexpert forums,i had another account about three years ago by the name of yo-bear.i doubt anyone might remember me,if so, say hi:D if not…say hi anyway:)
but anyway,im 16 years old and im a junior in highschool.i play varsity football for escambia high, i play guitar very well for having been self taught,i sing in the select group choir in my highschool, and ive been throwing for about four years.
since i started highschool, somehow yoyoing has found its way out of my life. i still threw from time to time, but not as avidly as i used to. recently i picked up my old one drop dingo and realized what my mission was…start throwing again.so in about two days im starting fresh.on december 25, 2012, i will have in my arsenel a new yyj inspire, and some yye string.as i recover my old moves ill get more. my old collection…well…ima be completely honest, i dont take care of stuff even if my life depends on it.with my re-entering the world of yoyoing, im hoping to gain some personal responsibility as well:)
but my old collection was dusty,rusty,crusty, and some other word that that ends in ty why that im not sure ive discovered yet.it all fell apart…about 500$ worth of yoyos and accesories all down the drain.(sad face). but,like i said,fresh new start. so yeah,das my story:)

My Name is Jason Katz. I been a juggler for 4 years now. I have tryed picking up yoyoing in 2007 but I took my first bearing yo-yo apart and broke them and never really learned the more difficult tricks. Now I’m getting into yo-yoing the right way. I traded some of my old juggling balls and got a yomega dash as my first yoyo that is not broken that is. After that i bought a yyf proto star. I’m learning fast and staying in the game this time. After seeing Mark Hayword at a spin top workshop I got more inspired to start again.
I’m learning both 1a and 2a. I’m a juggler so i am up to the challenge The YO-YO is going to bring me.

Welcome Jason! Hope your yoyo journey is a successful one!

Awwriiiight, time for an introduction.

TamOcello, 28, wood rat/leo, net radio DJ based in Salinas, CA, USA. Construction’s my day job, specifically driving a dump truck around the tri-county area. I play League of Legends, am looking to get back into Eve, and reads cards on occasion.

Just starting to get into the advanced section of the 1a tuts, working on my pop 'n fresh and elis. Currently rocking a DM2 and protostar, with a maverick and heavy wing set responsive because bearing sizes grr.

In any case, hi!

Greetings. I am Solomon, a yoyo player from Denver, Colorado. In addition to being a yoyo player, I am a classically trained composer, skilled audio engineer, special effects make-up artist, avid outdoors-man, and a purveyor of dark arts. I’m partial to One Drop throws, but have been playing my TA-1s a lot these days.

Hello. I am Greg. I was inspired by my friend who could do basic tricks such as Rock the Baby. I then used a cheap dollar store yoyo that I found in my room. My grandfather saw me and gave me my first yoyo (I do not count the dollar one). I am 14 and started throwing when I was 11 and quit shortly after due to my lack of money, a non-looping yoyo (I am terrible at looping), and no more replacement strings. I started up again when I was 13 and tried Offstring which I was okay at. I have started doing regular 1a and have made some progress. I know up to The Matrix in the Advanced section. I have a Yomega Lightbeam, Duncan Freehand Zero, Duncan Throw Monkey, Duncan Flying Panda, Duncan Hayabusa, Superyo Nitro, and a Yoyojam Dark Magic II.

Hey Im Corey. I’m 30 years old, and am just getting back into throwing. I stopped when I was 13 because I outgrew my duncan, and never advanced to a better yoyo.

This year I got a “sharper image” yoyo as a gag gift from my parents, and forgot how much I enjoy throwing.

I wore out the plastic bearing in the sharper image after breaking 2 strings.

I am awaiting a whip in the mail, and I am going to pick up an fhz after work.

I will work with those until i get better then move to some more awesome throws.

This is a great site BTW.

Glad to have you! If you want some help deciding on your next throw or anything at all, just PM me and ill help you out.

Hi, I’m Joe. I’m 49 years old, and I was into yoyoing some time back, about 12 years ago, but haven’t done much with it since. I bought a yoyo for my nephew for Christmas this year, and I wanted to show him some tricks, so I broke out my original SpinFaktor, and could still split the atom and land a trapeze and a double or nothing. I googled yoyo tricks and found that the state of the art had moved way beyond where I was. I’ve decided to learn some new stuff, particularly the unresponsive stuff (which I had never heard of), and maybe some 5a, which was just getting started when I quit. (The original Freehand was the last yoyo I bought.)

Got myself a YYF Velocity and have learned to bind, and to do a man on the flying trapeze and his brother slack. The yoyoexpert videos are tremendous help and inspiration! Looking forward to getting into grinding and such as well as green triangle tricks, etc.

Hello everyone

I am excited being part of the yoyo community. I didn’t realize that there were so many folks passionately in love with yoyoing. Well I am one of those. I have always been intrigued on how to perform all those yoyo tricks, so I am being tutored by U Tube. My favorite yoyo is the next one I get my hands on. They are all beautiful. If I had to pick one I would say it would be the Y Factor by One Drop and the Boss being a close second. My favorite trick I enjoy performing is Budda and the Zipper. I just recently became a grandfather to two wonderful boys and looking forward in sharing the great experience of yoyoing. Thanks for the warm welcome and look forward to talking with all of you.

Welcome, Joe and Slick65! Looking forward to seeing you around the forums.

I’m sorry I can’t say my name… But I’m 10 years old, about to be 11 and I love to yo-yo! It is so fun and entertaining! I have been playing a lot with my new Yomega Highspeed Maverick that I got for Christmas! I play piano and I’m pretty good I guess haha! I am a girl, and I play ROBLOX, an Online Game. I live in a pretty small city and I love the smallness ^^. I love company, making things, legos, and more! I wish to become a Doctor when I grow up! See you on the forums! ;D
