Yoyo

anyone else here throw? just want to know because im curious.

i can walk the dog and do a craddle thing....oh and sleep it

yeah, I play a bit, I've got a freehand yoyo and a few cool tricks, I have a tendency to use it like a rope dart though

point blank... thats a GREAT IDEA. holy crap why havent i thought of that before. and poje its evolved way beyond that.

I can do some stuff, barrel rolls magic knots poi moves like the weave etc. I know a Canadian called randy who developed a move called the spiderman. done with an off string yoyo, it's thrown up (off string) and caught with a flick of the string like spiderman using his web, such a nice move.

Mynci,

That Randy sounds amazing. Such clever people out there. I've seen some amazing Yoyo videos out there and many are doing similar to Poi type moves with two Yoyo's

I just love how the movement arts are crossing/combining over skills

I agree - 5A Yoyoing is basically psychotic micro diabolo

I love that description.

Just for itself. "psychotic micro diabolo" is just too awesome for words....

5a is freehand, i think your talking about 4a (offstring) and yeah i do agree it is really similar to diabolo without sticks or the one way bearing.

i still cant belive that this thread is still up here and not on like the 60 some page

Sorry yeah you're quite right, I got over excited I'm still quite new to yoyo I don't devote it enough time as yet becuase I never meet anyone who does it

well there are 2 really big forums. though there full of (g-rated word) jerks, trust me you can go if you like just be cautious

Cheers yoyo is one of my winter hobbies if you know what I mean, stuck in a flat with rain everywhere I try new toys enough to get adequate on them and learn a couple of good tricks, as long as they are indoor toys

Lets hear it for the indoor toys!

I might possibly maybe sort of occasionally thinking about toying with the idea of playing with a yoyo.

I managed to snap my string whilst at work last week

Its a £3 Duncan one I bought from Tesco.


What ones are you all using, and where can I get a good cheap one? Don't want a flashy one.

a henrys viper is pretty cheap jon - <£20 when I got mine. also Have a custom made one but it's somewhere in my flat.....
