Who did you guys/gals watch on youtube for inspiration yoyo-wise when you started? I watched (and still watch to this day) Marcus Koh. I literally would not be typing this if I hadn’t come across this… [![](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/yoyoexpert1/original/4X/2/2/9/229e150a676672e9917abce9040859dc9cfa2193.jpeg "YoYoFactory Presents: Marcus Koh 2011 World YoYo Contest 1st Place 1A") ](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_P9JfqSKyxk) and also the yoyofactory east coast tour videos #nostalgia ---

I think the first player I watched was HS, but I didn’t like how his tricks seem fast and simple, so I typed in “Double yoyo”, then I saw this guy with a cool name. Patrick borgerding. After that I decided that I wanted to pursue double handed, but that was expensive, so I settled for 2a. After awhile I gave up and went to 1a then 5a and now I’m here, a 3a player. ---
