Hello :slight_smile:

I am returning after being away from the hobby for 12 or so years. The new Guilty Gear character Bridget uses a yoyo as a weapon and I went “oh hey I remember those, I wonder what has changed”. A lot! Also not that much!

Ordered a Dove and a Shortcut. I still own a ILYY Lio, a Werrd Pacquiao, YFF Skyline and Protostar.

Still remember that Jensen Kimmit 2010 video lol

Hi, my name is Joshua and I’m from North Carolina. I would say that the Horizon is one of my favorite throws because this spin time is ridiculous. I am an intermediate/advanced player and my favorite trick is revolutions.

Welcome to the forums! Maybe you should look into bimetal yoyos if spin time is the biggest thing for you. I would recommend this:

Hi! I’m Sawyer. I got into yoyoing around 4 years ago, but around 3 years ago I stopped. I then found my old yo-yo 2 years later and got back into it. Now I LOVE yoyoing. Buuuut I only have 2 years of experience. I’d say the headrest trick I can hit right now is either Kwijibo Or Cold Fusion. Also, atm my favorite throw is The Normal Shutter as that’s the only metal yo-yo I’ve had.

Welcome to the forums! The shutter is a great yoyo to carry you through all the tricks you want to learn, good choice!

For years, I have made the argument that you can eat anything with a spoon, hence my name, The King of Spoons. I’m not here to talk about spoons though, I’m here to talk about throwing. First off, I’ve been a yoyo player for about 2 years and my favorite trick has to be the first trick I ever made, “fast hands.” My favorite yoyo is definitely the Iceberg considering how stable it while also having a floaty nature. Lastly, I can do a backflip.
