Hey, I am Lucas and I have been yoyoing for a month and I am priit bad because I use a yotech intermediate which is the only yoyo i could find around me until i bought my replay pro which should arrive soon, I found this when looking to buy my first yoyo.
Welcome to the forums - just keep at it, youâll get there
Well, to start, my favorite Yoyo is the YoYoFactory Shutter Wide Angle, my favorite trick is the Triple on Trapeze Release, (5A) My favorite player is Gentry Stein, and I found this place one day by, looking on YoTricks.com, and my dad (who also is into yoyoing) told me about this amazing website!

Hi, Iâm an average 12 year old boy that likes to do the following:
yoyo
sleep
eat
watch youtube
talk to yall
do nothing
I have been lurking for a little while now, finally decided to make an account and introduce myself. My name is Quentin, and I just recently got back into playing with yo-yos. Back about twenty years ago they were a fad in school, everybody had one, I never got very good doing only the basic around the world, walk the dog, tricks like that. Well now they are making resurgence in my childrenâs elementary school, I ordered them all their own yoyoâs and they were quickly getting frustrated trying to learn tricks out of the Duncan hand book. I have since ordered myself the dv888 and now as a family we are all trying to learn together watching Yoyo expert videos and playing together, we all struggle with even the basics still lol, but itâs a fun learning experience and gives us all a healthy activity to do together.
Lurking? Spy! :haha:
Welcome. I have that Duncan trick book too. It makes difficult tricks seems incredibly simple. I did not get much use out of it. Only after I learned some of the tricks from other sources was I able to decipher the Duncan trick book illustrations.
Welcome! I love how this is a family endeavor for you, itâs a great way to pass the time and build confidence!
Yeah those trick illustrations are very vague, thankfully yoyo expert has some great videos and making it substantially easier to figure out. Thanks for the welcome
Thanks for the welcome John, my daughter is ten, sheâs my eldest and seems to pick up a lot of it easier than us men in the house, lol, she is a natural at almost everything she does. But me and my boys are still having lots of fun with it and hopefully will start making progress as the weeks go by
What yoyos are your children learning on?
My daughter has a YYF Replay and both of my boys have a YYF one
Thatâs good. I got that trick book with a Duncan Imperial and I was so lost.
I got the book with a Duncan pro z I got from Walmart.
Donât let the kids take it apart without you thereâŚall the pieces! Oh, the pieces!
hahaha i heard that!!!
This sounds like a lot of fun! My oldest is 5 and she has a small yoyo collection (pulse and first base) but sheâs a little small to yoyo well. Itâs hard when youâre super tiny and need to use a really short string! Doesnât give much room for error!
