Who are YOU?

It’s always a great read if you are feeling a little lost.

I solve Rubik’s cubes and throw metal objects on strings

Omg i do that second one too! What a coincidence!

Waaaat small world

Oh my gosh guys! You’re not gonna believe this… But me too!

Like the ones above I am a yoyoer too and my name is Batuhan, I’m 17 and I am from Turkey. This combination means that I am hardly able to get a new throw even with b/s/t. So I am trying to get better with what I have. Also I want to thank to HaruRay for starting this post and letting everyone know that there are a lot young yoyoers.

About me I did taekwondo for 7 years (started at when I was 10) and I have a 2 Grade Black belt (Hopefully it will be 3 grade in this summer). Also I play electric guitar, watch anime, play videogames (I played LOL and got into DOTA 2 because I wanted to. And I played a lot of videogames.) and solve a lot of test because of my country’s messed up education system. Also I skate and I listen to metal music and I am trying to grow my hair. It grows nicely but my hair is gets messed up easily and stays puffy-like state. you can see my photo from this summer at here (Now my hairs lenght is doubles this photo):
Redirecting...

For yoyoing, I started at when I was at 7 grade at the elementary school (Now I am 4 grade in high school a.k.a. last year of high school). I played for some time and quit because I ran out of strings. And at the summer of 2 grade of high school, I started again, got my PGM in March for 17 birthday gift. Got a lot better than that time and I keep getting better, but I know there are better players than me and I am cool with it. I am saying this because my non-yoyoer friends at school says to me I am good and I should go to the nation-wide talent show which I don’t want to go. But I say this: “Maybe when I get better I’ll go to that show. But before that I will go to Nationals.” to them.

Thanks to everyone who did or did not read my story because you gave a part of your time for reading my story.

If only there was a place where we could talk about this with other people who share this hobby…

Hi! My name is Jaspal Singh. I go by Jesse. I am 13 years old. I live in northern VA and attend 2 yoyo clubs, CYYC and RVA. I started throwing in September of 2012, and haven’t stopped since. I’m a only child living with a single mom…that’s how I started throwing, I was bored haha. I am in 8th grade currently, and am taking almost all advanced classes- 10th grade math, 9th grade spanish, 9th grade spanish, Advanced science. I usually get all A’s.
I am Sikh, and proud to be one! I don’t see many YoYoers around with the same background as me, except for Keiran Cooper, who’s half Indian. It makes me feel unique haha.
I love trying different food, but love oriental food. Japanese, Chinese, Vietnamese, I love it all. My favorite would be sushi with bubble tea. I also love Indian food, especially when my grandma makes it.
I play percussion in my school band, and play dhol (double sided Indian drum) and tabla (Indian hand drums) at home.
Other hobbies include- diabolo, kendama and astrojax.
I was born in Ohio, moved to North Carolina, moved to Minnesota, back to North Carolina, then to Virginia. I hope to move back to NC soon because I’d like to go to UNC.
Hope you guys enjoyed!


heaven maybe

These ideas are to revolutionary for mere mortals to conceive…
We must never speak of them, or we shall be the end of all…

And on a more serious note: cool stories guys! I read through each, and it’s interesting to get to know ya a bit more :slight_smile:

My real name is Evan but most people call, “hey get. out of the way”, and I’m 14. I live in Danville, VA an started thtowing in I think November of last year through my old school. I’m homeschooled and my favorite subject is History. My other hobbies are airsoft and collecting Lego sets. Airsoft is so fun once you get into it. I don’t have a job yet because of lack of transportation. I have moved about 9 times and in 4 States. Last of all my two favorite proffesional yoyoers are Zach Gormley and Augie Fash.

Hi! My name is Davis Keene. I am 13 years old and live in Needham, MA. I started throwing about 2 1/2 years ago when i saw Yoyo-people perform at my local library. I got into it for 9 months then took a 9 month break, and now i’m right back in. I go to public school and I love science. I have other hobbies, like Tennis, Soccer, and occasionally looking at things under my 1000x microscope. I don’t have a job, but I do chores from time to time. I have lived in needham my entire life. My favorite yoyo players are Paul Dang, Augie Fash, and Zach Gormley.

Hello all, my name is Ricardo. I am 18 years old and I live in Cocoa, FL. I got into yoyoing about a year and 8 months ago. A guy came into my youth group busting out some wicked yoyo tricks, and I just had to get one. When I was a little under a year I went into my school’s talent show and I got second place. That is how I got a friend of mine into yoyoing. Unfortunately, the three of us live kind of far away from each other, but we still see each other from time to time. I have gone to worlds twice and it has been a great experience and if anybody has not gone to any contest, I would highly recommend it, it is a lot of fun. Anyways, I am a freshmen in college (which is 100x better than high school :wink: ) haha. I am planning to graduate next semester and hopefully go in the U.S. Airforce. Other hobby’s of mine are: Soccer (waiting for that world cup, GO BRAZIL! ), basketball, playing drums, reading, and of course throwing metal objects on a string like stated above. I am originally from El Salvador. I am fluent in both spanish and english, but spanish is my mother tongue. My current favorite yoyo players are Charles Haycock, Jensen Kimmit, and Luis Villasenor.
