Introduce Yourself!

Was my first authentic purchase. The replay and overture are gifts from my mentor. And the avion was my second buy. I’m currently waiting for a Leg Ter, Downbeat 20/20, and Kuntosh QV5k to arrive. Looking forward to trying out new throws and testing the different feels that they provide

Hey my name is Lee. I’m new to the community and have only really gotten into throwing about a month ago. I’m gonna be 29 this December. My current throw is the yyf sage with which i am working on different types of barrel rolls currently.

I was just outside with my red Sage. Welcome to the Forums. If you order a concave / center trac / large bearing for the Sage you can put it in and practice unresponsive too. It’s a very good and comfortable yoyo!

I actually got the kit that comes with the center track unresponsive. Luckily it didn’t take me more than a day to learn the basic binds

Hello everyone my name is Cesar and I’m fairly new to yo-yoing, started about a month ago. I’m currently throwing the Cyber Crash. And I have the Colossus V on its way. Currently I’m working on just finger grinds as well as perfecting my throws and mounts. Still trying to make my binds look better and have less of an awkward body movement. Oh and I’m left handed too so yeah :metal:t3:

Hey everyone, my name is Damien and I’m 34 years old. I just got back into yoyo-ing after about 20 years off. I’m in love with my yoyofriends peregrine. My goal is to learn eli hops and better binds by the end of 2020.

Hey everyone, I’m Ben, 35. Been throwing about 6 weeks now with a Velocity and a Replay Pro. I used to yoyo a bit when I was 13/14 with a ProYo 2 (still own it!) but had a 20 year gap. Just learnt double or nothing and started on one and a half side mount, having a bit of trouble with that one!

Welcome back to the hobby. Post a photo of that Proyo II! It’s cool you still have it.

@ChrisFrancz Thanks. Yeah it’s a cool yoyo, it feels strange going back to it as an adult doing tricks I couldn’t do as a kid! My dad saved up money from tips for that yoyo because I couldn’t afford to buy one, so in hindsight I was actually 11/12 because I worked at 13. I have an old green Duncan Imperial somewhere too but never had much luck with that.

Nice! How do you like your Replay Pro? I LOVE it. I’ve been bringing 2 yoyos to work and it’s the Replay that comes out of my pocket most. It clicks on every level for me and is just so comfortable for me and I love it most with a Kitty XL string. Do you plan on trying any metal yoyos? I highly recommend the Top Yo Colossus V. It’s $30 and phenomenal.

Yeah the Replay Pro is awesome, it feels good in my hand and seems well balanced. It’s pretty easy to learn the mounts on too. I’ll try a Kitty XL on it! Yeah definitely after a metal yoyo at some point, I’ll check out the Colossus. It’s hard getting some of the yoyos in the UK though.

Hi everyone! My name’s Alex. I officially started throwing in 2017 and started with my black Sage. I’ve since lost it but that throw was a favorite of mine. I put throwing down until recently I started back up again. I’ve been throwing my Skyva for the last couple weeks and have a new throw coming today that I’m excited to try! I’m looking forward to meeting other throwers!

Hey, Alex. Welcome aboard. The Sage is a great yoyo. I jumped to intermediate with it in 2018. What new yoyo do you have coming? Mail Days are always exciting!
