In the future I could see us as grandparents talking to our grandchildren:
"You lucky kids these days with your fancy shmancy yo-yos. In my day, all we had were YYR Draupnirs and Dazzlers.
I said that in a different thread awhile back but I don’t think people saw.
I’ve been told that twice ^^

I’ve only heard about 2 big walk-in yoyo stores that take things seriously in America; BirdInHand and A2Z, both on opposite sides of the country. They’re great learning experiences, and amazing ways to learn tricks and meet new people. They also teach people that it’s not about the hype (I picked the Shu-Ta over an Avalanche because I preferred how it played, not because one’s by a hyped company)
I wish there were more of these. They’re great for the community, and are great places for people to learn about the culture.
There are quite a few more than 2 walk-in yoyo stores in America.
Yea. Airtraffic Kites and Games is another one. They don’t just sell yoyo’s they sell other stuff to but they do host a yoyo club every week. And they have like 6 different locations throughout MN.
I would like to be a better yoyoer in the future.

Bring back the true X-division so styles like Moebius, Double Dragon, Double Dice and other alt/sub styles can truly shine.
Also: Don’t tell me “Well you can do that in AP”. Ap is about making an artistic performance. Thats not want we want.

This is a good idea.
That would be great. Maybe even get all of them as separate divisions

ied like to see more hands on teaching, more clubs and camps, just to be able to pass it on more thoroughly. The internet is great, but physical awareness and learning from some great throwers, will flourish the sport more to the next generation. plus it would be a even better way to strengthen the community.

I’ve really been meaning to get around to a few of those yoyo club meet-ups. The Rochester store is like 5 minutes from my house.
