Why does 5a may exist?

Is it marketing thing or why do we have “5A may”?

it rhymes

and it raises the profile of the 5A style of throwing which does not get nearly enough love.

it’s just a fun thing that the community comes up with . like fixed axle fridays or 2A tuesdays

Every “A” rhymes with “may” tho, so why not 4A may for example? And in my opinion all styles that aren’t 1A could get more love.

oh i didnt read that, that sounds plausible

it could have easily been 4A or any other but at some point 5A stuck.

if you want to do 4A may, i say go for it.

i’m all about the 5A may, 5A Fridays.

I’m not good at the 5A but i love it and i’m working on it… :grin:

May is also the 5th month. 5A. Makes sense to me.

The point is, go tie a rock to your yoyo and have fun!

Need to put a slice of lime on the end of the string, and try to land it in a shot of tequila!

I personally prefer Cinco de Miracle-Whip.

5A May exists because 6A June(3A with 2 5A rigs) would be waaaay to difficult.

5A May exists because it allows you an entire month to accidentally smack yourself in spots you never thought of.

5A May exists because the community fun aspect may compel a few to join in just to see what it’s all about.

5A May exists because it gives folks a whole 4 weeks to step outside their 1A comfort zone and better appreciate the actual depth of what is possible with a Skill toy.

5A, or as I like to call it “Heads Up! There goes my yoyo!” :rofl: Love 5A, should really spend more time practicing/learning it.

Is there a 5AA for those who can’t hack it?
