Ello, I am soon to be 22 years old.  I did start yoyoing a few years back, but have been off for some time(about 1 year).

I recently started again and was thinking that i should join the forums to find more ppl from Sweden.

My fav yoyo right now is my black SPYY Addict. I got a Blue Code2 on a order right now and I cant wait to trow with it

I did find out about yoyoExpert form your normal everyday google search.

Hi everyone! I'm fairly new to the forums. For the past few days I've just been reading up on stuff, but now I have decided to make my first post here. My name is Paolo, I am 13 years of age and I live in Canada at the moment. I've been throwing for about 3 months, and I am absolutely IN LOVE with my YYF DV888. It is my only unresponsive yoyo, and I have learned a a lot from it. Other than that, I don't have much in my collection. I have a couple Yomega's that I haven thrown since my 'newbie' days, which is not too long ago. I found YoyoExpert when I was looking around for perhaps a higher end throw, do you guys have any recomendations? Anyways, got to get back and work on 'And Whut.' Thanks everyone!

Hi, I'm CapNot, french and 31. I've really dived head first into yoing 3 months ago but started years before with yomega crap and a henry's hyper viper a lot better but not so good... So I really started with a die nasty, then a grind machine, and now i throw a dv888 too. Next i'll try yoyoJam ... I prefer lateral play but throw in frontal too. That's all

Hello! I am Ben from the great state of West Virginia, and I have been yoyoing about a month now. My favorite yoyo is my Dark Magic II. I found YoYoExpert just shopping around for yoyos and it quickly became my favorite site. I'm not great with yoyos, I can do the zipper and pull off a seasick once and a while, but I hope someday to be good enough to do a freestyle at a contest or something. If anyone knows a yoyo club near Morgantown, WV, tell me about it!

Hey everyone! I'm Liam and im super excited to be a part of this community! I've been yo-yoing for about 3 or 4 months now and it's amazing! I know i'm not that great yet but i still love it, and i've started collecting! My favorite yoyo at the moment would be the dv888 or the protostar.. My favorite player by far has to be Tyler Severance. And coincidentaly i really want a Supernova! So i just wanted to say hello again and im really looking forward to my future in this unique community!

Hi, I'm Gage.  I used to be pretty active in the online yoyo scene.  Recently got back into yoyoing after a short hiatus, and found that most of the sites I used to frequent are pretty dead.  Then I found this place.

Hi, i'm Magnus. I am 14 years old and come from Norway. I got my first yoyo from my dad about one and a half year ago. It was a triple action from (yo2), wich i do not recomend. Now im using a dark magic 2 and a loop 900. I'm about to move on to the expert section (skin the gerbil, suicide, jade whip. Etc.). I don't remember clearly how I found yoyoexpert, but i think it was a link at yoyonation or just a google search.

Hello All,
My name is Brandon and I am the oldest 13 year old on the planet.  I have a couple of yoyos (50 or so) This is about all the wife will allow (what she doesn't know won't hurt her.)  I have a small machine shop and love to mod cheap plastic.  There is not anything I haven't modded including dye, bearing size, response systems, etc...  I am patenting a new axle system; I love everything about yoyos.  But, I am horrible player.  I practice everyday and can do advanced and expert tricks I just can't put them together. (Thank you Andre!)
I really don't have a favorite yoyo maker.  I have more YYJs then any other maker.  If I only had one yoyo it would be my Epic.  I had the chance to talk to the owner at Cals in Sacramento and not only does he make great yoyos but he is a cool guy.  (If you haven't check out Madhouse.)

If you want to talk mods or production contact me anytime.  I am always looking to learn more.

Hello There Yoyoers!  My name is CJ.  I live on Vancouver Island in Canada.  I am quite new to this incredibly fun sport.  My 8 year old son has been trying to yoyo for the last 4 years but hasn't quite had the coordination until now.  He and I pulled out our ancient wooden fixed axle yoyo's and started just playing together.  We are both hooked.  My son is playing on a yomega Raider.  I recently got a black knight by yyj at a reduced price in town....because they have not been selling.....nobody knows how to use them.  Been watching all the videos on yoyoexpert.  AMAZING.  Had no idea how much fun this could get.  Big jump from the traditional up and down yoyo!   I admit that I suck!!!  I could not figure out the Black Knight.  Sooo I double looped it, tightened it and threw it hard until I got it to return.  Not doing too bad now.  I am only at "man on trapeze" and "dizzy brain" or something like that.  Working on Bind returns and looking forward to the fancy stuff that most of you can do.  CAN ANYBODY MAKE A SUGGESTION ON A GOOD YOYO FOR MY LEVEL?  Been looking at: The Vigilante, Micro Mo, Dark Knight II, and the Hitman Pro.  The local toy store is willing to give me a good discount on a Lyn Fury or a kickside.  I am ignorant...any suggestions would be great.  Oh I AM A PROUD MOTHER OF 40 YEARS OLD WHOSE 8 YEAR OLD SON HAS BEEN INSPIRED BY YOYO ING.....THAT HE IS JOINING A TALENT SHOW NEXT WEEK!!!!!   There seems to be Zero community of yoyoing here in BC Canada, yet the other students and their parents have been so impressed by his ability to do :creeper, rock the cradle, breakaway, jamaican flag, and the eiffel tower....that he is drawing a crowd....shy as he is.  I am a very proud mommy!  Thank you for all of your support, videos, advice and suggestions.
