admit it, yoying is an uncommon hobby. I am the only person in my friend group that does it. so i am asking you guy, why do you yoyo? I do it because I love it and it makes me happy. Plus as a college student its so much better than drinking at parties or doing drugs. but what made you pick up a yoyo and stick with it? ---

I like it, I yoyo for fun, it’s challenging and I feel more realized for doing tricks right than making levels on videogames. And, there’s really no reason not to yoyo. :wink: ---

Dude brilliant idea never stop yoyoing just do it all the time no matter what and if people tell you to stop just play these songs so they be quiet and then you win and they lose and they go home.

I yoyo for many reasons… Mainly it is the fun I have while I am throwing… When I have a yoyo in my hand I am happy… It is that simple. If I have had a bad day I will pick up a yoyo and within a few seconds I am already feeling better. I can let my mind go… I am very lucky to live in an area where there are SOOO many great “yoyo” people to throw with… It makes it that much more fun… There are really two yoyo communities for me… The “online” community which is great… And then there is the “local” community which is even better. And then there are all these yoyos… The precision and art that goes into making these “toys” is just crazy when you think about it… ---
