Wow that’s REALLY good for the amount of time you’ve been playing 😃

But I must ask, what Yo-Yo do you have?

Wow, I just don’t understand how people are learning these tricks so fast!I’ve been yoyoing foran year and can only do skin the gerbil, while people are casually yoyoing for a month or two and they know how to ladder escape or white buddha.

Keep up this pace, learn some nice combos, and hopefully you’ll join team yoyofactory or something! ;D

nice progress, I have a slightly slower progress myself (1 month in, working on advanced 1&2/Expert tricks/mounts) and I’ve been told I was doing great (and I’m on the “older” spectrum here most likely)  
keep at it !

you got the basics down now, keep at it, but if you notice a point when you stop making that fast of a progress, don’t worry and work on smoothing things out and straightening your throw.

the velocity is really a good yoyo to begin with.

what hadoq said is true, keep smoothing out your tricks instead of getting a trick like 10 times and then moving onto something else. it will improve your tricks and help you out as you learn harder tricks. getting a good throw is very important also, it will help you out alot. :wink:
