I’m looking to get a “Year in Review” post up on the Archive, and I’d like to get some community impact here.

What were your favorite yo-yo moments of the year? The biggest events? Releases? Stories?

There have certainly been some epic releases this year. It has been a lot of fun seeing how people have played around with the Stem System. There is so much potential there.

Show some love for the micro yoyos man. Two of my favorite micros came out this year, the RCS Duckling and Busker.

This one night earlier this year I got the gnarliest knot ever, and then I freaked out for like 30 seconds straight, but then I got it together and next thing I know I had that knot undone. That was a pretty epic moment in yoyo, imo

All things atmos. Canopy.

Stargazing, agreed was so much fun.

Ryan’s 4A worlds championship was touching! I’ve never been so happy to see someone win. He works so hard and this was his moment.

YYF drama. lol. Maybe not a highlight but certainly newsworthy.

I finally got a handle on beef hook. Haha!!:joy:
