Hi,
I’m pretty new this whole thing…
I’m what I like to call, a “Hobbiest” I have alot of hobbies because I have Manic Dpression/Anxiety/OCD and I prefer to keep busy with my hands. I was looking at some videos on YouTube and this looks like fun! 8) I’d really like to try it. I have a 90’s Duncan Butterfly Yoyo that remember being very fun. I never learned any tricks except around the world with it… and that was 2nd grade lol I’m 26 now ^^’ but anyways I’m going to try this and I really hope I like it, cos I love the look of alot tricks I’ve seen and again it looks like a blast once you know how.
wish me luck?
Edit, I forgot to mention! This is the yoyo I’m looking to purchase after I looked at some videos it looks amazing imo and it was recommended by some other yoyo-tubers lol its a yoyofactory Replay Pro, Neon Green Aurora Marble, Gentry Stien Edition
The Replay Pro is a go way to start and the lessons here are amazing. Welcome, and remember, the most impoitant thing is to have fun.
Thank You! 
My replay Pro is on order! Very exciting ^^ I’ll deffinately check out the tutorials when I get home. I can’t wait!
Gotta Throw Em All!
Hello I’m Dino trucks. I found out about yoyoexpert when I saw some videos about yoyos and they were really interesting. So I just googled Yoyo tutorials and yoyoexpert came up! So I clicked on it and was fascinated by there learning videos, selection of yoyos, and the friendly forums. I only signed up recently but have been reading posts before that. I signed up to learn and I do hope that I will become pretty good at Yoyo-ing! 
Hello, new to the hobby looking forward to chatting with some nice people.
Welcome, you nice person.
Hello everyone, sort of new to yoyoing but I’ve fell in love with mistress yoyo lol. At the moment I’m really into one drop but I love alot of yoyos and there company’s. I’ve found the company Magic and I’ve got a few of them and for there prices I feel like you get a more expensive throw for very inexpensive price. I like kendama, spin tops, begleri I just really enjoy the skill toy hobby. Thanks to yye for this forum and connecting so many like minded people.
Hi! I am splat. I love yo-yoing. I have been yo-yoing since the summer of 2016. My favorite style of yo-yoing is 1A, but I also like 4A. I know a little bit of 5A and 2A. Looking forward to getting better at yo-yoing!!!
Lumanasty here, 6 month thrower here, recently started making my own strings and have to say it has really kept me interested in throwing by greatly increasing my comfort.
Hey I’m Nick and I’ve been throwing since Dec 12 2016 (in the middle of my midterms…im a genius.) My main play style is 1A though I have dabbled in 4a and 5a. I’m looking forward to throwing with you guys!
Hey guys, my name is Ben. I’ve been throwing for about a year and a half, and at this point im pretty much totally commited to the hobby. I’ve been wanting to get into the community and am interested to hear your opinions about pretty much anything yoyo related.
Hi Ben. I’m Ben. Welcome.
Hi everybody!
My name is michele i’m 24 from italy, i started to use yo-yo one month ago.
I Have two yoyo my first is 2.0 from Yoyofactory and the second is a sakura from ILYY i sign up to this forum because im my city there isn’t many yo-yo player to talk or other so i’m here ;D
i’m so sorry but my english is bad but is a chance to learn it
Hi Michele. What city in Italy are you in? There are a number of players in Italy
Welcome!
Hey everyone. My names Steven and ive been yoyoing on and off for about 3 years. I mainly stuck to duncan yoyos because I’d buy them at the duncan stand in downtown disney!. However now with yoyoexpert I can easily branch out. Rocking a torque and an origami right now, however both are out of commission until my new response pads come. I did just order a skyva though and im super pumped about that. I’m trying to branch out and would love to hear everyone’s favorite throws!
Yeah but not in my City i Live in Iseo a small coutry near the lake in the province of Brescia but i never meet another player or a store about yo-yo
Yeh, no disrespect to YYE because they are great! But Visiting Downtown Disney once or twice a year like I do give me a chance to talk with some great players. I also agree with you on the Torque and the Origami. They are two of my favorite throws.
Hi. After I stopped playing yoyo for some reason around 2001 I’ve started up again. I’ve never been very good, but I love the yoyo. I can currently do very little with unresponsive yoyos. I need to learn to bind better. I want to start learning string tricks. I have a Replay that I usually play repsonsive, but I switch the bearing from my Magicyoyo N8 (too small for a re-beginner) which I have modded to accept a slim bearing and play responsive. Just ordered a Recess First Base and a Magicyoyo V3. I will really start focusing on unresponsive play with the First Base. Once I can do a few tricks I will but a Cabal and maybe an aluminum unresponsive. The Cabal looks wonderful.
I have some old Tom Kuhn yoyos that I hadn’t touched in over a decade. I have an SB-2 that I have adjusted fairly well, but it seems to be either too responsive or… slippy I guess? The string just seems to slip off of the yoyo without the yoyo turning. I have a Roller Woody and a Sleep Machine and that’s all they do. I’m baffled. I know they used to work. I can’t even get the string to wind up on those two.
I just saw that there is now a thing called the Tom Kuhn Turbo Pad. Maybe these will solve my issues with these particular yoyos.
I’m also into music. I play guitar bass and drums, sort of sing and have recently entered the world of eurorack modular synthesis. I play all kinds of stuff from rock and prog, ambient to total experimental noise. I also enjoy building guitar pedals and synthesizer modules. I used to own a record store and was a partner in a recording studio in the 90s. Now I’m a full time pet sitter/dog walker. I like working with animals better than working with musicians and the general public in a retail setting.
Thanks for reading my long intro. I talk a lot
Since you are from way back ‘then’ maybe you will remember me from ‘way back then’?
I was seriously into Customizing yoyos… back then. And I did many ‘tune-ups’ on those exact yoyos.
If you really would like those yoyos to function properly; send them to me and I will get them back is superior shape to play better than New.
You only need to ‘get them to me’. I will ‘renew’ them for no labor charge whatsoever. And I will pay for the return shipping.
I was pretty well known for ‘tweaking No Jives and Sleep machines’.
Examples of my work are displayed in the National Yoyo Museum in Chico California. Including a Roller Woodie cut for brake pads from about 15+ years ago; lolol.
Most people on this Forum dont even know me now. But the license plate on my truck doesnt say YOYODOC by accident🤓… I have a Machine Shop in my garage>>
just to ‘do things to things’ as necessary; you could say 
let me know… good luck regardless and welcome back. Yoing is fun. I never left. And I will most likely be around for a bit.
