Errr, G’day. Sam here. Tasmanian. About a year into this sweet hobby. Curious as to how many other fellow Australians are lurking about here, and if anyone’s keen to see a 'Keep it in the country, Aussie BST thread" Here’s Cheers!
@Maelstrom is probably the most active Australian user on here.
I see people shipping from Australia on the BST from time to time, but it’s less common than Europe or Asia.
@Glenacius_K comes and goes. Great guy, makes outstanding yo-yos. We collectively kinda lost the plot on the launch of the Flying Lemon and I think we overwhelmed him lol, I hope he doesn’t hold it against us. He hasn’t been around nearly as much since all that went down, he has also been into microbrewing last I saw.
I think Glen said he’s done with making yoyos?
I have heard the same sadly, but I do see him around now and again
I’d say you’re pretty active too hahaha
And yeah, I’ve eaten a lot of cost on shipping to buy yoyos ‘like an American’. It’s worth it though, love this hobby
There’s a number of us around - we’re mainly active on yoyos Australia FB or our Aussie discord.
Aus Nationals is also coming up on August 1st in Sydney if you’re able/keen.
Welcome

Yeah, breaks my heart a lil bit every time I see one leave the country.
I hear ya, even in my meagre collection I’ve got the value of several high end throws ransomed to USPS.
Would love to, but with a young family and doing the homesteader thing down in Tasmania, I don’t see it happening…at least this year.
