I have been yoyoing for less than 2 months. and im learning ladder escape. Where am I going with this? I dont know. either way, I wouldnt let a six year old play with my metal. I would let them play with a DMII tho. or a plastic, if i had 1. > [@the trick that started it all](https://forums.yoyoexpert.com/t/the-trick-that-started-it-all/25221/14): > > Anyone watch the suite life on deck? Remember the yoyo episode? It was Yohan Yo (Grant Johnson’s) loops, and then Cody’s (Cole Sprouse’s) trapeze. I thought trapeze was so cool. So, I got a yoyo, X’mas ‘09. 1 hour later: _Bonk!_ Awww… it broke. So we wait another year. I get another yoyo, for 2010 X’mas. I’m yoyoing, doing british flag, rocking the baby, eifel tower, and I think I’m so cool, so I say, “ya know whut, I bet I am like, intermideate level” so I find… you guesed it, Andre. Well, it turned out I was beginner. I loved the look of the DM. So, I bought one… Here we are, 3 months after the day I started yoyoing for realz, I started with my DM on Jan. 3 2011. I can do white buddha, yuuki slack, bunch o’ other stuff. I have a DTI Beast , a Dv888 a 54 and currently, my DM is “safely” on my teachers desk. [sarcasm]It has only been stolen off of her desk 3 times!!! I know right? So little? [/sarcasm] anyway… I love yoyoing. sorry about the book. Oh yeah just to be clear, > > the trick that started it was trapeze those are some old posts 🙂 (of mine) --- _[View the full topic](https://forums.yoyoexpert.com/t/remember-why-you-yoyo/31715)._
