From our friends on instagram!

adrianvelez\_ - How long does mark practice everyday? What goals was he trying to meet while making this yoyo? And is Adrian Velez one of his favorite players? I should be top 5.

carbar45 - Lol, how many different hair styles have you had?

brianmelford - How does it feel being black?

troytheyoyoguy - I know youre a busy man. Do you ever find it difficult to juggle both your yoyoing career and your work? Do you feel like your personal life is holding you back from certain yoyo goals or do you feel like you’re meeting your goals accordingly?

e\_graham - Alright I got one: Besides your signature throws, what are your other favorite One Drop models? BONUS QUESTION: Why don’t you post on Instagram? Hahaha… DOUBLE BONUS: @morgannewton wants to know if the flat top is easy to maintain?

mikemonty - If any, what non-yo-yoing activities does Mark draw inspiration from for yoyoing? Example: a 2a player may be able to leverage poi skills to improve their 2a tricks.

backspace\_101 - What type of personal process goes into trick creation?!
