I’m going to order a sheet of the stickers, and that’ll be enough for 6 Butterflies if the sizing comes out right. As for the buttons, they’re sold in sets. I’m going to create color variations and put the sets up in the shop to raise funds for the YYBC.
The only thing left to do is get some cotton string to make some strings.
I think you did an awesome job on those!
They look really good
I follow you on IG. Mine is Yesterdays_Cow
Man!!! Those BUTTONS!!
The buttons are live. Warning, they are pricey, but all profits go to the YYBC.
There are also holo stickers!
Hey folks, been away from the forums since 2018 and away from throwing for 2 years. Just getting back into things, I love modern responsive play and fixed axles, and I’m 31, does that make me a yoyo boomer? lol
You’re a Yoyo Boomer as long as you want to be!
If you claim yoyoboomer title, you are yoyoboomer. Welcome!
Ok I’ll dig it up and tag ya
Celebrity/Bonus Trick #3 Secured!

Yoyo Boomer Fixed Axel February Week 1;
Lets get the ball rolling on this and identify our gaps and what we need help filling.
Week 1 Post Writer @Son-of-Morris - Think this about complete
Technical Director @Captrogers - Setting us up for Data Sharing success - In Progress
Trick List - @GnarlyCharlie - Complete
Videos; @Ardeus , @GnarlyCharlie , @Overtinkering ; Can you guys work out which trick(s) you will film (Undermount Stall, Brother Stall, Lunard Stall to Upside Down Lunar Stall). I have 1 Celebrity Video that we can add to Week 1. The other two are currently in the making.

Gap #1 - Marketing/Prizes - I have not had an opportunity to reach out for Product Support yet. If anyone would like to take this role on, let me know. You would be asked to Contact the Manufacturers begging for free products for us to hand out. May require Logistics of receiving and shipping said products?
Email Example:
Sir/Mam,
The Yoyo Boomer Club on YoyoExpert Forum (Yoyo Boomers Club) is facilitating both Fixed Axle February and Modern Responsive March events. We have organized the Weekly Trick List and are in the process of making the videos.
Our goal is to facilitate these two annual events this year. Supporting and engaging the yoyo community.
At this point, we are seeking product support. We would like to give away, through a lottery draw, products at the end of each week or end of each event. Any support you can provide would greatly be appreciated.
Please let me know if you have any questions.
Thank You for your time.
Anything I am missing?
Is there going to be a separate forum topic initiated as well that I can add this to or reference when the time comes? Just want to make sure I don’t end up being the missing cog in the machine, haha.
I would imagine that each week there will be a new thread created. “Fixed Axel February 2024 Week 1, 2, Etc.” Not sure by whom yet.
Whoever posts the thread should be able to copy and paste your intro for each week. Maybe start thinking about Week 2 intro?
How do you imagine the video? Do you want a Bandalores type video of us just doing the trick from a couple helpful angles, or would you like something similar to that but maybe with some audio too explaining what’s happening? Basically like, “Alright, this trick is called the undermount stall. It’s a lot like a trapeze, just from the other direction. Yadda yadda….”
Yes.
Creators Choice.
“I” like the additional information, but I also do not want to micro-manage the creativity or what people helping are willing to do.
What or how would others Boomer Members like to see the tricks?
If you have fun, and it gets the point across, good for me.
I want to make a huge, thin fixed axle and call it the Big Boomer, in honor of this club.
It may not happen, but its an idea.

I’m not opposed to this.
Either a new thread per week or a master thread with a new post per week like the TAW thread does now. good with either personally. If we are able to do prizes then a separate thread would be easier for logistics.
A single thread however makes it easier to find for the people participating and following along. Pluses and minuses but let’s make it easy to run first and for most
