Tucson, AZ - yoyo/kendama

Looking to learn some more tricks from my peers. Looking to get a small group together at a bar on a Sunday afternoon sometime to throw. Three of us now, fairly novice. Hit me up if interested.

Hey man.

Do you happen to live near the Park Place mall? There’s a club that gets together there every Saturday from 1pm-3pm. It’s sponsored by the store Game Daze, and has a pretty good group of about 8 regulars. I go just about every week to hang out and teach. If you guys are close you and your buddies should stop by.

I knew about that one, but unfortunately we all work every Saturday. I’ll definitely keep that in mind if I every take a Saturday off. Thanks.

Do they still meet at the Park Place Mall to yoyo?

I don’t think they do. :pensive_face:

Would be awesome to get something going in Tucson again though.

nothing in tucson right now

we should probably get a club running

Yes, we should. I’m a n00b yoyoer, and don’t have much free time to run a club, but I’d be happy to help in whatever ways I can. I’ve got yoyos I could donate for kids/ new people to use at meet ups.

we should gauge interest

if you from or near tucson and want a club

please respond to post

Dang, I didn’t notice the date on the first two posts right away and I got excited thinking that the Game Daze re-opened at some point :joy: That’s where I bought my first metal yoyo in like 2010. (I don’t live nearby anymore though, so can’t jump on the club train).

Wish I knew there was a yoyo scene when I last came through!

I go out of my way to hit Tucson on road trips. Love the hiking/outdoors and tacos. Aqui con el Nene and the Tacos Apson on S 12th are my favorites.

YYF did some filming and catalog shots at the aircraft boneyard one year too.

In Tucson and interested.

Any interest @Retro-Yo ?

Both great taco spots. There used to be an El Nene next to my work, might have eaten lunch there a bit too often.

I bought one of the “club boxes” from the RCS going out of business sale, mostly because it was such a screaming deal. Happy to donate this to have yoyos on hand for kids and new players to use.
