Well I have been on this forum for a while but I just stumbled across this thread so…

My name is Evan, I have been Yo-Yoing for about a month and a week now. My favorite trick would have to be Gyroscopic Flop. My favorite Yo-Yo that I own is the Yoyofactory Tactic, my favorite that I don’t own would probably be the General-Yo HatTrick

Woah! Welcome. I started with a mosquito too and then I bumped up to a dark magic. Tell me how you progress. And again, welcome to the forums. :slight_smile:

Hello everyone, I am Leo just chiming in and saying hello after lurking for a month or so. I want to tank the forum for all the info given so far and Andre for being awesome, I had a messed up bearing in my 44 special and I was sent two replacements asap from yye, they have been patient with my orders as well having changed a genesis order to an undeniable edition after placing the order. YYE is great and the forum is as well.

Again, don’t correct him for every post he makes, if he wants to welcome a lot of people, let him.

Hi! I’m Alex.

My name is Rulon Doman. Currently 34 years old with a lovely wife and 3 little ones.

I have always liked yo-yos. My dad had introduced me to yo-yoing ever since I was a kid. My dad was good enough with a yo-yo that he was in the Guinness Book in the early 80s. However, he was an old school yo-yoer. All yo-yos back then had solid wooden or metal bars in the middle of them and bind returns didn’t exist. To give you an idea of what I used most my lifem my dads favorite yo-yo was the Duncan Wheels.

I have always be “ok” at yo-yoing. I recently found this website and it has really gotten me back into yo-yoing. I would like to give my personal thanks to Andre Boulay for making the site. My backgroud has given me a strong solid sleeper/breakaway and trapeze/braintwister that has sped me through all the intermediate and advanced tricks in a little over a month.

In April I got my hands on a Duncan Dragonfly and 100 yo-yo stings. 2 days later I got a Duncan Freehand, and not long after I landed a Duncan Metal Zero and a Dark Magic. Exactly 7 days after I got my Dark Magic I succeeded in breaking my 2 front teeth and got 6 stickes in my bottom lip from a bad bind. After fixing my teeth that made my Dark Magic my most expensive yo-yo at $415 ($45 for yo-yo + $200 dentist bill + $170 dollar urgent care bill). I now practice with a mouth gaurd. I lost my Dark Magic. I think my kids got a hold of it. So now I am currently sporting a Trinity with a Ceramic Koncave Ball Baring. Which I would like to say is a VERY nice yo-yo for moving into the expert level tricks.

I look forward working on my yo-yo tricks. Maybe someday I will even go to a competition.

I’m new, just ordered a 888, CAN’T WAIT. when i was a couple years younger i had a silicone recessed FHZ and thought i was so great. Yo-yoing has really advanced so i’m ready to get back into it. i think a new 888 will help me do that :slight_smile:

hi guys im dylan. hi hardcore_max

So… here we go! I’m 28. I used to throw about 10 years ago [not very good]. My son came home with a yoyo one day that brought back a ton of memories. We’ve been throwing together ever since! Currently he’s throwing a Kickside and I’m using a Protostar.

That’s the short version. :slight_smile:
