Unpopular opinion: The yoyo Krampus comes to take those who have not shared nor given joy to others through yoyoing. Those taken have their yoyos dispersed among the masses, never to yoyo again. Usually occurs in the month of January but on rare occasion Krampus pops up just for his amusement in other months as well. šŸ‘¹ šŸ‘ŗ ---

Unpopular opinion: The flickering effect LEDs have when shooting video at high framerates actually looks good in a trickcircle, especially if the trick thatā€™s being landed is a banger. ---

1: People are able to do most tricks and styles with mid and high wall yo-yos, we are just oversaturated with low wall yo-yos. 2: Yo-yos made in different parts of the world have different feels, but yo-yos made in the same continent have a similar feel. 3: Speed combos seem to be dominating right now in the general competitive scene and there hasnā€™t been much innovation lately. (It might just be me being out of the loop for so long though.) Edit: This is the best YoYo video.

> [@Keane](#): > > 1: People are able to do most tricks and styles with mid and high wall yo-yos, we are just oversaturated with low wall yo-yos. I would say this is true, however, I find that I do them much less successfully, which is much less fun. I donā€™t think Iā€™m alone in this; thereā€™s a good reason top competition players use low-wall, high-performance yoyos, and it isnā€™t because of market over-saturation limiting their choices. ---

The best way to learn horizontal yoyo tricks is to use a 2A yoyo (loop 720, Initiator, etc). This will refine your precision. ---

Thereā€™s nothing wrong with starting out on a basic fixed axle yoyo, or with Duncan producing them for widespread distribution. It doesnā€™t matter that there are better ā€œstarter yoyosā€ out now, people who give up because they canā€™t immediately get a sleeper or gravity pull on a fixie will likely just give up at a slight farther point. Iā€™m all for replacing the Butterfly with the Butterfly XT if the market will take the slightly higher price, but the simple fact remains that fixed axle yoyos are a continuing presence in the market, and hold plenty of new yoyoer creating potential. I started with this cheap red plastic company promo fixed axle yoyo from my dad, and still remember how much fun it was just learning the basics. Here I am today, talking about yoyos, all because of that one little plastic and metal toy I picked up 6 years ago. ---
