I would be where you’re at if I didn’t have so many yo-yo trends I haven’t tried yet due to being away from the hobby for so long.
I’m still new so I hope I don’t make too many people hate me but 1a is boring to watch for me.
I think that might be due to you being new. If you don’t understand why something is impressive it can’t be impressive. That’s why non yoyoers think Eli hops is more impressive than a crazy tech combo.
No ones gonna hate you. ![]()
What style do you like to watch?
4a and 5a
I agree that high level 4A is really exciting.
Watch more non-competition yoyo vids and “trick circle” stuff. A lot of people on here will agree that the high level competition vids are kind of boring (aside from a handful of creative routines perhaps). Id rather watch a good amateur on Instagram than most who place in nationals tbh.
Evan Nagao is the G.O.A.T! ![]()
What? Also the guy in red pants in that video is a nutter lmao
Oh I was just recommending these guys because they aren’t all hardcore competition oriented, they’re just a bunch of goobs who are insanely good at what they do.
Just saying, you dont need to have a lot of money to invest. Get some index funds if you arent sure where to start ![]()
I’d say you need to compete at least once to really appreciate competition play. The act of making freestyle teaches you a lot about the effort it takes to make a competition fs that scores well and explains why competitors do the tricks they do. I’d say watching 1a has been a lot more fun since my first comp.
Anyone who spells the word ‘boys’ as ‘bois’ I will not sell any yoyo to.
What about grils? ![]()
Well MAYBE I DONT WANT YOUR YOYOS GLEN
The amount of times I’ve typed bois is too much to count
YEAH! You tell him boi!!!
das my boi
I got some good ones.
The yoyo community does not have to be so “kid friendly” as it’s been and should have outlets and events that can cater to not always having to be so PG.
Current modern contest “meta” has killed a huge chunk of originality in 1A and competition 1A in general.
Most companies are only willing to hype 1A and 1A players which is a big reason why the other X division styles have faded in interest.
2A is the coolest to watch style
Americans don’t take up 2A as opposed to all the Asian countries having new 2a players all the time cause we’re too into instant gratification and being lazy.
Agreed.
I don’t think that’s the case at all. Instant gratification and being lazy? it’s not like 1a is a walk in the park..
