Hey, coming back to yoyo after about 20 years… mainly to have a dork out thing my daughter and I could get into. My daughter’s interest fell off after a month but I really dig it.
Heeey…I used to moderate a board a long time ago, and I used to get annoyed when noobs didn’t intro themselves. Lol.
Used to throw a LONG time ago, before unresponsives were around (I just dated myself, but whatever). My old throw was a Losi Cherry Bomb (Silver Series version), which I still have. My daughter won a cheap yoyo from school so I figured that it would a fun thing to do together. Bought a Skyva and an N11 to learn unresponsive, and found out that it’s a pretty awesome stress reliever in the office.
I’m pretty much a big kid in a tie…will never grow up!

Greetings! My name is Brian, I’m old, and absolutely horrible at yo-yoing. I’m getting better slowly, but currently I only know how to forward pass and gravity pull. There is YouTube, but I’m looking for fellow throwers in the Raleig or Apex, North Carolina area that have the time& patience to get together occasionally and coach me a little.
I’m a former educator that now works in health care.
Thanks,
Brian
Hello, my name is Luke.
I’m originally from the United States, but I live in Japan. I’ve only just started throwing, but I’m already hooked. My main yoyo is a YoYoFactory Shutter. I got started by wandering into a shop in Tokyo, run by a group of very friendly guys. This is something I should have started a long time ago, but better late than never.
You aren’t old, your age is just right. Some of us learn slower that others but it is all about having fun. Welcome to the throw.
Hello! I’m Steven. I’m very new to the hobby, but I enjoy it tremendously. Right now all I have is a yyf flight. I’m excited about everything happening in the yo-yo world right now and am excited to be part of it.
Hey guys, My name is Robb and I’m just starting out with unresponsive play. I’ve got one or two tricks down, nothing crazy. Anyway yeah, I throw a one drop Vanguard with kitty string standard. Been thinking about the CLYW Big Dipper or Skyva. Any thoughts?
Hey all, my name is Chris. I threw a lot 25+ years ago. Since there were so few people to learn from around me, I checked out a lot of books and learned that way. There is only so much you can learn from books and a Smothers Brothers video.
It has been great to get back into the yo-yo with some excellent communities and resources.
Glad to meet all of you!
Welcome back to the throw! It is great to see others who have rediscovered this hobby.
Hi! I’m Egi and I started throwing again last February 2016. Although I am not making it to the local club meets in our country, online tips/videos are a big help with my progress, a very very slow progress. LOL.
Hey I’m John Schiltz. I’m 16 and I started yoyoing on a whim a year ago. I recently upgraded from a sage yoyo to a YYF genesis. I’m currently trying to learn the whip and it should be easier with a unresponsive yoyo.
Looking at all of your advice has really helped decide what yoyo to buy and I think yoyoing is going to be a lot of fun!!

Hey, I’m Mike. I play occasionally for fun, I’m not great but I can do a few tricks
Fun is what it is all about. Welcome to the throw!
Hey I’m Josh. I just started throwing less than a month ago. I became interested after finding out about One Drop Yo-yos from Terraria. I love throwing because it’s not electronic and it takes some concentration so it is great to separate from responsibilities for a little bit.
I am a 1a thrower, nearing 3 years in the hobby, and I yoyo everyday 99 percent of the time. I have learned most of the first fifty tricks in 2 sites which comprise most of the 78 tricks I have wrote down, but I have mostly stuck to creating original tricks. I like fingerspins. My favorite throw is the Werrd Minute, closely followed by the Shutter. I’m excited to become a part of this forum, and can’t wait to meet more people in this wonderful community!
Welcome! I really enjoy fingerspins as well! If the yoyo can’t fingerspin or at least have hubstacks, I don’t want it
