I got probably some random duncan buterflys as a 5-10 years ago but never really got into it. First yoyo I can clearly remember is the Dark magic II which I still have today. Started using that maybe 5 years ago, forgot about it, then just got into it a little over a year ago with the dmII.

That must of been around 99-2000, I was still in junior school, stopped at 11 as the craze died out.

Picked up a yoyo again yesterday! A lot has changed in 15 years.

Blue Yomega Brain 1998, I still have it. This kid at school had a red one he let me play with and I thought it was the coolest thing ever. Soon after I put some play time on it, I realized the Brain was far from the coolest thing ever, lol.
