I apologize that I cannot answer on a steady fast whim as my outside life renders me from doing that. Also, I met many of these mentioned people in this thread, does that mean I do not have the right to disagree? I don’t have to agree with people here without there being malice.

Then there is those such as Naota and Terry and Hironori Mii that has a compelling dynamic to their presence in tricks, its graceful, slightly more simplistic and flowing. I am not much of a fan for modern based yoyoing. My style does not reflect my taste however.

Lapin is rabbit, so I highly doubt that’s his real name. Then again, maybe hippie parents?
