Most videos are pretty short but I start drifting away when one gets into the 2:00+ minute range. I try to watch every video from start to finish at least twice but when they get longish… Maybe it’s just me.

The feel when you lie down in your lounge to watch a live match of Overwatch League, and you see your kids toy stuck on the ceiling :joy::joy::joy:

Finishing painting the bathroom, messing with my Dietz, and began to play “dress up” with my extra sets of side effects on some of my One Drops, mainly swapping out spikes to see which color scheme looked the coolest/best match or accent for the throw - have 3 sets of spikes in black, blue, and silver.

You should learn to like them! Hated them as a kid but now they are pretty much my favourite thing!

So on the YYE discord channel a 14 year old living in UK (Scotland) was asking where he can buy things like yoyo strings, bearings etc from.

Other than pointing out YYE (obviously) I thought it would be nice to send him a starter package.

He already has an unresponsive yoyo (that has a half spec C bearing in it, but doesn’t own any Normal C size bearing) that he’s using as a responsive (currently he just learnt rock the baby) and just 1 spare string :joy:

Not often I see fellow noobies from the same country as me so I took the opportunity to assemble a little care package (truth is I’m getting rid of unused stock 🤣) and just posted it off.

 ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/yoyoexpert1/original/4X/f/0/9/f09e7f94e019b8cc3db0487f21def622cfd6ba4d.jpeg)

1x flat bearing, 1x CT bearing (both G2’s)  
1x bottle of thin lube  
1x brand new YYF yoyo holster  
1x black velvet yoyo pouch  
And a whole bunch of strings in different varieties.

After the photo was taken I added more in to bring the total to about a 100 strings 🙂

Hope he enjoys and continues to thrive and progress in this hobby. Might send him a yoyo next when he shows signs on sticking with yoyoing. 🙂

ha! That’s SO amazing Moons! 😃

He’ll remember this fondly for the rest of his life!

Things like this are a big part of why the yoing community as a whole is so damn amazing. We’re just a bunch of guys (and the occasional gal!) who love what we do and want to share that excitement with others!

Thanks for doing this Moons! Damn cool of you!!

That’s great! Hopefully you can keep in touch with him regularly and be his rudder. It’s very easy to get discouraged with this hobby.
