Throwing mostly, but sometimes yo-yoing.

Yeah, I use “throw” usually as well. Like, “I think I’ll go to the park and throw for a while.”

I use throw as a noun and a verb.

Such as… “Man, I got a cool new **Throw** today.”

And… “Man, Imma go to the back and **throw** for awhile.”

I also will say things like… “Oh hey, you guys sell Yoyos. I’m a **thrower** , so thats awesome!”

But, every once in awhile I’ll say, “Gonna go for a **toss** in the garage.”

I always just say yo-yoing, because few people around me would understand if I said throwing.
