I think it might be kind of cool to have a “kendama” section in the yye shop. ---

but also think if we add another skill toy it wouldn’t be a yo-yo shop anymore it would then be a skill toy shop! so therefore they can’t call it yoyo expert anymore because they sell other skill toys too! :🙂 ---

Do you see spin tops taking over? No. If they won’t I’m pretty sure kendama won’t. Let’s not be toyist-No prejudice against other skill toys. ---

@abby1371 This isn’t really a yoyo website much anymore when they sell spin tops also, I would consider YYE as a skill toy website. ---

There is a spin top section. They had links for diabolo and cubes, but those are gone. I guess that never really came into being. I will say this, there’s a major kendama craze and push sweeping at least the United States. Who knows what will happen at YYE. ---

My 2¢…I think the kendama addition is a great idea! I have never held one and I don’t know where I would go if I decided I wanted to buy one. If they were available here I might be so inclined as to pick one up with my next order. ---

Well, spin tops, at least in the United States, is very niche. Kendama is getting the big push, while yoyo is kinda being ignored. That’s how it goes sometimes. I will say this. Kendama is very affordable, where-as yoyo can get ratehr pricy fast. There’s just not as much variety in Kendama due to the nature of it. Colors and woods are being done for added variety. I may pick up a couple more in different weights. I might get a more “bland” one to have my logo put on it. ---

It’s fine to sell other skill toys because in the end, YYE specializes and focuses on something called a yoyo. Mod Edit: Please do not refer to other online stores in your posts. It’s not polite.

No, they can still call it Yoyoexpert. Let’s use Toys R Us as an example… They sell movies. Are those toys? No. So… Yoyoexpert can still sell kendama’s while keeping the same name. ---
