Went to the YoYo Museum in Chico, CA today. Yes there is a functioning 256lb YoYo by Tom Kuhn. Very cool. I walked out in the back area because there was a little get together of kids and some young at heart kids. I walked right in to Gentry Stein!! Extremely nice guy. Introduced himself to me and my wife. He is very down to earth. He would have showed me any trick I wanted. Not that I can do it or them. He spent time with anyone who wanted him to. He never seemed bothered. Forgot to mention he signed my Shutter.
In closing, this place is like the crack house of yoyo’s! They let you try most everything. I bought a SPYY Speed Freak, the limited edition red one. Bought it to collect it. I don’t plan on throwing it. Some wouldn’t agree with that but, what can I say? Thad and Bob were great hosts. Props to them.
Thanks for reading!
