Re: anyone here yoyo besides me?
if your talkin about yoyo as another form of hello then im a victim of the 1997 fad as well. i say yoyo at work a bunch of times cause i dont like saying good morning. so its either yoyo or wassup. usually yoyo.
Re: anyone here yoyo besides me?
haha naaa. the yoyo. ill post a video of myself once i get good.
Re: anyone here yoyo besides me?
I do. I'm not super-skilled, but I enjoy F-ing around with it. The Duncan Butterfly is my fav. I once worked with a dude who claimed he started Yoyoing to quit smoking cigs.

Re: anyone here yoyo besides me?
oh, a yoyo. Hahahahahahahhaha. Im slow! i get it now, nah i dont yoyo. Used to when i was little. We should bring it back. start going to hip hop shows rockin a yoyo. Do a live show and bang pads with a yoyo or learn how make it walk on a turntable while its spinnin. we could do an experiment and see how easy it is to start a trend in this world. See if every dj starts yoyo-ing.
be funny!

i kendama if you like a yoyo you probably will like a kendama. the videos on youtube make it look easy but most people can hardly do one catch much less all the flips and technical catches..

You have to make sure your strings don't fray after awhile they need to be replaced or the yo yo body can fly off and break a lamp or hit your SP-screen for a smash.
