Hey guys, so Iām usually posting everywhere on here but I donāt think Iāve ever really introduced myself. My name is Austin, Iām 26 and I am a Colorado native (shoutout to all my 303 peeps!) I am currently getting my degree in cyber security. I started throwing when I was 12-13 for maybe a year or two, found expert village and Andreās tutorials, then just now picked it up again maybe 3 months ago or so. So still shaking off the rust a bit and trying to remember certain things! My favorite throw of all time is a OD Markmont or a CLYW Gnarwhal. My current is either a Duncan Grasshopper Gtx or OD Thorn. My favorite trick is any variation or way to get into a green triangle. Outside of yoyo, I love sports, video games, crime documentaries, working on/racing my drag car, and almost anything outdoors.
Iāve already chatted and what not with quite a few of you but I hope to do so with many more!

Welcome to the forums! Are your yoyo skills rusty? Just kidding. Glad you have found yoyoing to be a great stress reliever, most people find yoyoing to do the same for them as well.

Welcome to the forums! You should try some red triangle tricks as well, maybe youāll like them as much as the green triangle.

Haha! Yeah, never heard that one beforeā¦
Back in the day I was pretty solid at rock the baby, Jamaican flag, around the world, and walk the dog with my Yomega Fireball. Canāt say I every really even learned trapeze back then. Now I am at the point where Iāve learned a pretty good number of the fundamental tricks and just learned (but not perfected) the hook and Brent stole. Iām definitely progressing quickly, especially compared to my 10 year old self lol

Sounds awesome! Youāre pretty far on your yoyo tricks journey already for being just 4 months in. I canāt even do some of the tricks you know like Brent Stole and I have been yoyoing for like 5 years already. Great job and solid progress!

With you. My wife reads on the couch and says she likes the sound of the yoyo spinning in the background. To her, Iām a walking nature sounds app, but with yoyos instead of rain pattering or waves crashing.

Hi My Name is Stephen and I live in the Los Angeles area. Have not really done much with yoyoās since the late 90ās when I was in the Army and used to play during our stand around time, mostly playing on a Fireball and glow in the dark Imperial. Decided to pick it up again as I am spending to much time on my phone and staring at a computer. Lets see where it leads.
