Introduce Yourself!

John here back from the dead.
Have been away for a couple of years, but never away from throwing. :slight_smile:

I am bazz and I’m new to these forums :slight_smile:

I am from Attleboro, MA and I love yo-yoing. I once attended the 2004 World yoyo Contest, did pretty badly (came in like 24th place or something), and since then I have not yoyo’d very much… However, about 2 months ago, I recently made a return to yoyoing :wink: I am loving it!!!

I host a youtube where I post music, yoyoing, and electronics:
feel free to check it out!

Cheers!

Hey, I’m new. I did some yoyoing about 5yrs ago, and then I quit after a few months. I picked up yoyoing again about 4 months ago and I bought 4 new plastics, and I just learned how to bind an unresponsive yoyo and I’m really happy about that.

Funny story:
5 years ago I hit myself in the face with a metal SPYY yoyo LOL. This hit to the face was caused by a failed bind, and I was really stupid and looking down when I threw the yoyo down for a side mount.

I was binding before I knew the dangers :slight_smile:

Aloha ;D

Hi I’m Trent and I’ve lurked for awhile and started posting because I was looking for a specific throw and noticed the bst section, then I kept posting, and then I just now noticed an intro thread! I’m a mid twenties father of three, picked up throwing back during the 90s slightly before the big boom and then played through it! Saw some throws at toys r us the other day while getting some toys for my little girls; and started throwing again! My kids love it, their favorite trick is the ā€œcow houseā€ (Jamaican flag!) btw thanks Andre for the great customer service!

Howdy y’all, this is redneckyoyoer3826! LOL. I’m not THAT redneck. I do live in the good ol’ South, though, so I got a good pinch of redness in me! Especially since I live out in the country!

Anyway, I started yoyoing in mid-January of 2013 with a Yomega Gift Pack (which had a Brain, Fireball, and Raider plus some thick lube and five Slick 6 strings), although it wasn’t a gift; I bought it myself. Technically though, the yoyo that got me interested was a stupid little Ja-Ru yoyo that didn’t even sleep. I also had a couple of friends who influenced me to get into this AWESOME hobby.

So now that I have been yoyoing for nearly five months, I own twenty yoyos (with another on the way which might become my favorite, knocking out the DV888) and my skills are improving greatly. I am currently able to do things more advanced things like Kamikaze (my favorite trick), and many other challenging tricks including Jade Whip, Revolutions, and Brent Stole. I also do a little bit of offstring, counterweight, and one-handed looping.

Be watching out for a possible website and/or YouTube channel from me. I will make a thread about it if I do.

P.S. Happy National Yoyo Day! (I think it is cool that I finally registered on the forums on this special day!)
