Jerrod mentioned this too, which makes me think, “if you guys aren’t doing this already, how in the world are you ending your tricks???” That is basically the ending of everything I do
Y’all’er endin’ yer tricks?
plz hlp. been yoyoing for 378 days, nonstop bc idk how to stop. snd hlp
There is no stopping. There is only Yo.
His string burn calluses are unreal.
Totally! Just for example, maybe week one is Trapeze Stall, Brother Stall, and Double or Nothing Stall as the most beginner basic set for new comers. Then there’s a 4th trick like Cartwheels at the end for slightly more intermediate people. You can also tie it in with the other if you’d like. Trapeze > Cartwheel > Brother > Double or Nothing.
Just a thought. I like the idea of one added intermediate trick at the end for returning fixxiers. And then of course we’ll have the weekly guest trick that’s always fun and new.
Well. I bought myself a yo-yo (technically with gift card money). I got a shiny new PLTPS on the way! Between that and the Workhorse deposit I paid, I feel like I’ve spoiled myself
I’ve not tried the PLTPS but I can’t recall anyone saying they didn’t like it either.
It’s one I’ve been wanting for a while. I love the idea of having a dedicated throw for responsive counterweight play.
Last years theory for FAF;
Beginner friendly Trick each week.
Intermediate Trick each week.
Advanced Trick each week.
Guest trick(s)
I thought this concept worked well. Every week there was/should be something for everyone. Keeping everyone engaged for the Month.
So maybe we subdivide the list?
Beginner Tricks - Basics Elements for anyone starting out. Easy and Successful on $3.00 Butterfly for beginners. (I know many of you can do anything on a Butterfly. ) depending on the list, maybe its 2 tricks per week?
Intermediate - Same concept as above.
I am not overly concerned about the Advanced Tricks. We have awesomely gifted members and guests that will bring the heat.
Also maybe a mini game this year… Want more of a challenge, complete the set on an imperial.
Thoughts?
@SleeperHit Welcome to the Club. You have been added to the member list in the first post.
I like the idea that everyone can, at least, participate each week from beginning to end and I like the idea that the tricks won’t all keep getting harder and hard as the weeks go on. As many know, I’m not one for advanced tricks nor have any desire to learn them.
In fairness, I’ll be low-key participating this year, but I’m not looking for prizes so I won’t be filming my progress, but I’d still like to follow along, in spirit.
I was thinking about the weekly tutorial proposition, and I had an idea I would like to run by everyone and see what you think. I could make 4 or 5 tutorials that are intermediate to advanced tricks, and we drop them all on the first day as a separate set of tricks people can try all month long. Every completed trick earns 1 entry in a separate drawing, and if you complete all the tricks then you get 1 extra bonus entry in the drawing. I could give away a Yoyoexpert gift certificate as the prize. Probably a $50 one. I wish I could give more but I’m poor lol. It could give people something else to work on if they complete the other tricks early, or if they just want to. Anyway, what does everyone think?
I’ll toss in a few packs of Nectar strings as prizes this year.
Can I join the club?
will this be announced here or do we need to watch the website?
Probably both
Stayed tuned to the IG id say. Wayne is good about teasing and posting countdowns.
@Yoyo313 Welcome to the Club. You have been added to the list in the first post.
Someone should start a Top-Secret Yo-Yo Club in a group PM.
…I’ve watched too many Spy Movies.
You may want to be careful with statements like that.
There are already 2 secret groups within the Club… Hopefully, the Cobra Commander, the Leader of the Cobra Organization in the club doesn’t see your post.
