My names TJ. Posted in the inteo thread recently and have been trying to engage in the few threads i can add anything to. Mostly lame jokes, but like i said, im real new to the hobby.
Ive been reading a ton om here, and the community you guys have built is phenomenal. And from the significant lifetime of this space, im sure there are a ton of great threads/videos/etc. that have come up over the years.
Ive done a good bit of searching, and come across some great, insightful, informative, and hillarious topics and posts. But the sheer volume is overwhelming and Im sure i havent scratched the surface.
So anyone with any Posts that stand out and you can find a link or give me something to search for, id really appreciate it.
Also, any videos, or instructional material, or really any resource at all that you think a green thrower should see would be great too. Anything you found useful, or entertaining, or helpful in progressing your skills, all of it. Anythung yoyo related that really stands out to you.
Thanks in advance to anyonr who takes the time to point me in the rught direction! Happy to be here!
Yo welcome! This is my favorite series about yoyo technique.
I don’t know where your skill level is at, but I think it is good for new players to go through yotricks first 50 tricks playlist also
You can also check out the trick a week thread on here where you can learn a trick each week and ask for help if you get stuck or just have any questions
(You can learn any of the tricks from past weeks and ask questions about those also)
I havent seen the first video before, so im going to check that one out today.
Ive been working my way through the list of 50. And theres only maybe 6 or 7 i havent been able to complete. And also only a very select few ive attained any sort of real command over lol. And to be honest, a few of those i havent gotten yet are due to not really trying more than once or twice. Just tricks that didnt appeal to me for one reason ot another.
Recently got cascade and have been building consistancy. The last pop and catch in the double is almist always the issue. Ill get it though.
Kwiyjibo, the Hook, and Pop n Fresh are really the only ones im missing and am very interested in learning.
Stuff like Cold Fusion, Buddhas, Matrix, and a couple new binds are my most recent accomplishments that im getting any real consistency with. The guy Wright bind and the sky? bind are getting dialed. Sky is goving me more trouble but coming along.
This rant is just incase anyone has any ideas on trick resources to give some idea of my (lack of) skill level lol.
But honestly, this thread isnt about me, hope it doesnt come across that way. Entertain me yoyo people!!@$!
Dont get me wrong, im absolutely interested in as much advice as i can get! Lord knows i need it.
And i had seen the Trick a Week thing, but the couple i saw first seemed way out of my league and i didnt realize the massive number of old posts that were archived in there. Will be digging im that thread for sure, thanks again!
But this whole scene is new to me and it all fascinates and entertains me. So whatever people find interesting or cool or funny or memorable in any way.
If you guys are willing to share it, Id love to check it out.
