Biggest pet peeve is access to yoyo communities and stores where I am. I live in Canada, and in my specific province yoyo’s are essentially a foreign language. I have been yoyoing since 2010 (with a few year break in between) and have only made it to one contest (MWR in Minneapolis) as it was only 8 hours away. besides that, never met another yoyoer in 15 years of throwing! crazy! ---

yeah, meeting other yoyoers in person takes legitimate effort. its incredibly rare to stumble into other throwers almost everywhere. ---

Collectible throws resale value. And retail price for that matter. I fully understand why the price is justified, but it doesn’t change the fact that it’s $200+ for a toy. An absolutely _awesome_ toy made with ultra-premium materials, but a toy nonetheless. This doesn’t extend to ebay prices for some pieces, those are unjustifiable :skull::skull::skull: On the subject of collectible yoyos, another peeve I have is where someone will buy 15 units of the same yoyo, just in different colors, and not play with any of them. Collecting different colorways I can understand, but having every single one be a shelf queen makes me scratch my head. The justification: “resale value” 😤. But hey, it’s your money; it’s yours to burn as a sacrifice for the yoyo idols, lol. Me, any yoyo I purchase, I intend to play with. I couldn’t care less about what it’ll sell for in ten years. I just wanna use it the way it was intended to be used, as a skill toy ---
