Then why do people go to them? I always imagined that they would be a blast!?! I didn’t mean the competitions them selves, I’m sure they are a blast. I meant practicing purely for the purpose of competing kills the fun out of stuff, because you can never be happy with how you are doing at that moment, and just enjoy yourself, there is always a push to get better, or at least that’s how it was for paintball and orchestra, the competitions brought up the same feeling, the feeling like where you were was never good enough. You’ve got to have fun with it, or you’re gonna burn out. ---

Ok guys, Thanks for all the info 🙂 I feel like i have gotten a lot better then since the REGEN video! I love yoyoing and i just want to say that i feel like i and enjoy it even more now! Ever since i started, it was my dream to get sponsored or become a pro. But now i feel like i can have fun when i yoyo. Me and 2 other friends are doing a performance in April. Hopefully that will give me some stage practice :P! I have looked on the yoyo contest website and the nearest contest is in Texas in April.(i live in Arkansas) If the opportunity comes up should i see if i could go? How long do people work on their performance before they go? > [@888victini](#): > > yeah man, you could seriously have someone wanting to sponsor you VERY soon. > > Again, amazing work, keep it up! 🙂 Thanks.That would be a dream come true 😛 ---
