Just as the title says: What was your favorite moment this year that was based on yoyoing? Did you nail a hard trick? Go to your first contest? Meet your hero? Read an article? Make a video? Anything!
For me, it was walking into IYYO, meeting Pat, and walking in to the room and having this kid named Adam say hi to me and recognize me from a video. And then the rest of the contest, including landing “The Whip”, hugging Brandon Jackson, losing and finding my Vendetta, and using the urinal next to JonRob.
The duncan tour was pretty big, Nats was huge, meeting Ambri Bizek in AZ was fun, getting my first metal (marmot) after waiting like 3 months to save up for nats at Bird In Hand, Hanging out with Josh at nats was also great. Then there was my first real yoyo. Just before easter, I got my DM, still have it as well as signed mirror caps by Aundre (THANKS AUNDRE). Yeah, those were my biggest things, good idea for a thread!!
finally landing Kwijibo after trying to get it sorted for a month, yay me, and also just starting yoyoing in general. I started in August and have been loving it ever since. ;D ;D ;D
well i started at the beginning of the year so… everything. from throwing my first ball bearing yoyo to starting a yoyo club at school. throwing my first full metal (my friends 5 star. DANG) to actually getting my first metal. making my first trick.
but probably when yoyoing just clicked.
when i went to Oberlin Ohio and i was yoyoing on the street with my black speeder. some random guy walks up to me and asks me if he could try. he did more than i knew at the time. then he gives it back, says nice yoyo and walked away. i was like :o ???
