What yoyo company do you want to join?

When I was a kid, I spent the entire day at a large ranch. One of the ranch hands warned me about something.

He asked me, ‘You have any problem recognizing one end of an animal from the other’?

I said, ‘Heck no. The front end has a head and the rear end has a tail’.

He said, ‘Excellent answer. This is your plan for survival, especially when you are around the larger animals. NEVER stand behind the large animals. There is a hole in the back that Bad stuff is ejected from. When it happens, it happens fast, and you don’t wanna be there’.

If…… ‘if’ the tail of a large animal could be used as a coat rack, you could get that post of yours and hang it right back there next to the hole the bad stuff comes out of. Because that is just about how bad it stinks.

Instead of doing an Autopsy on your entire looney tune, I will just focus on one point that wouldn’t fly even if it had wings>

You suggest that you would turn Yoyofactory into a real ‘American Yoyo Company’. A complete Transformation for the sole purpose of ‘Destroying One Drop’ like Indian destroyed Harley.

One Drop is owned and operated by 2 Americans, operating out of Eugene Oregon. Just about every stage of their yo-yo building, with the exception of anodizing, is done in house by employees that are citizens of the United States.

The majority of Company’s, including Duncan, have their products made in China. This is common knowledge and is not new information.

So… you single out one Company owned and operated by Hans and Ben. You suggest they need to ramp up and become more ‘American’ so they can Ground and Pound on another American Company until they Tap Out?

You seriously need more Oxygen, David. Not even a guarantee that will help? But it’s a move in the right direction.

Come to think of it… one more thing> You mentioned you would like to see Yoyofactory gain more control of supply chain, pricing, etc….

Interesting you should suggest that, lol. Obviously, you didn’t know what I am going to tell you next.

There are a few Schools in Arizona that actually send select groups of Business Major students on field trips to Yoyofactory. Why? Glad you asked. Yoyofactory has been identified as a top rated example of organized efficiency. The students are shown how the various stages have been fine tuned over a few decades of hard work, to allow Yoyofactory to effectively provide skill toy products to Countries all over the civilized World. Hans and/or/Ben take the students on a step by step tour of every stage of the operation and enlighten them on how every stage is critical for the Flow of the process.

You know nothing about Yoyofactory except the story you made up in your own mind about how you think ‘they are’?

Now, quit standing behind those large farm animals.

Realistically none as I have no desire to be sponsored etc

However if I had to pick I either would go for G2 as I like how Jake runs G2 and the community is fantastic. or I would join Turning Point as Takeshi Matsuura is my favourite player.

Easy choice, G2

Boutique but crazy active, always exciting, always something new to work on.

Note: I am considering this from the angle of ‘work for’ not ‘sponsored by’

Zipline strings bc I love their strings for 1a and would like to see a string designed specifically for 3a—
Exceptionally thick, so I can still get nice and reliable binds with the shorter length I prefer to play the style with.
Comes out of the bag shorter so I don’t grab fresh strings and immediately cut them in half bc that feels wasteful.
Slick like zs air so that it slides against itself well.
Durable bc having to change strings is annoying.

Recess, since I never had a yoyo from them that I didn’t like. Tyler has been one of my favorite players since I started playing and one of the nicest people you can imagine every time we chat.

I like this “work for” idea. I would like work for G2 as well. Shipping, website upkeep, video editing.

What a flex.

Yeah, that was why I didn’t just make this post about being a sponsored player.

Honestly Rain City Skills seems like a buncha jokers and would probably be such a good time. I always appreciate their quirkiness but funny enough I have never played any of their stuff.

I’d still join sight-unseen lol, they just have that vibe.

Discussing the RCS Dumpster Fire yesterday, and watching the “bearing lube recipe” video for it had me thinking the same thing.
