Sorry if any of these are already on the list but there is Viktoria Takbulatova from Turning Point, Julia Gutowska, Kahli Evans from Werrd, Selinsu Varol, Adriana Pailova, Sydney Goldman, Emma Ochman, and Liqi Seven Yuan, and Ana Paola.

I just want to point out that not all the ladies that yoyo are going to be on the forums, making videos, or competing. Especially if you consider someone like me who is horrible at yoyo a yoyoer.

There’s a lot to add to this thread from a sociology and psychology standpoint, but the information given would definitely be verbose, and to some, just all around mundane.

However I’m curious about this list. Is this a list of well-known yoyoers, is there any relevancy when it comes to chronology, or just anyone we can name? I’m asking this because if you consider any female interested in yoyoing regardless of skill level, your list would forever be incomplete.

When I think of female yoyoers two people come to mind. One being Ann Connolly only because we’ve spoken a bit years ago. However the person who comes to mind who I have absolutely no affiliation with (unbiased) is Jennifer Baybrook.

In my opinion Jennifer is quite possibly one of the most iconic female yoyoers. Feminine, pretty, first female ever to win a world yoyo contest, and celebrity are just 4 things out of her vastly expansive résumé.

I know the first two descriptions are purely superficial, but are just my reasonings, albeit subjective ones, for Jennifer being someone that comes to mind when discussing female yoyoers.

This is a very good point. It appeared to me that the list was of all known female yoyoers, so that was what I added.

So crococorey, what are the requirements for this list exactly?

Kat- You’re right. It would be impossible to track down ALL girl yoyo players. I’m just trying to make a list of the ones that people know of and forumn members and such.

I am curious on what girls think when they go to contests or clubs and there are none or just one other girl there. Any thoughts or experiences from the other girls on here would be great.

I am generally not much of a people person and adding that together with a lack of yoyo skills, well let’s just say I’m outside the norm.
