Matt Schmitt Yoyos - Help The Yoyo Archive w/Some Info!

If anyone has ANY more information that I do right now, could you please post it here. I’m looking for more accurate dates, specs, etc…

Anything, really.

Any great stories about Matt? Great pictures of your Underdog or Underdog 2?

I’d love to flesh it all out a bit more.

Ok… so I’m a little behind on the history of yo-yo making people…

I didn’t even know Matt had passed away?

What happened?

He was a really nice guy…

Matt was a well known fixture in the St. Paul/Minneapolis yoyo community. He regularly competed in MWR and the Minnesota State yoyo contest. As I recall he also judged at MWR and MN State a few times. Met him at a couple of contests but didn’t know him well.

Around September-October 2018 is when I first knew of the Underdog 2 being ready. @Grendel do you remember better? I first heard the 2 was completed from you around that time.

I believe your correct. It sure seems like a long time ago. Man makes me want another. Team Teflon for the win.
