Mind boggling yoyo

Post by ericf4 » Sun Feb 26, 2017 2:16 pm

My nephew has been doing yo-yo for a number of years and has become a bit of a yo-yo phenom if that's a thing ;)

He competes all over the country and wins quite a bit. Just saw this from this weekend in Seattle. I have no clue how people can do this stuff. Amazing.

That's pretty cool. I have to admire a kid picking a hobby and sticking with it enough to get that good. I think follow-thru is a dying trait amongst the generations of instant gratification.

Totally agree. He got into somewhat odd stuff for a kid and got expert at them. Yo-yo was one and Rubik's cube and magic the others. I hand it to him, he's really good at it.

That's amazing.

I used to dabble in air yo-yo when I was a kid but the deaf kids told me to quit talking gibberish.

I know this black dude who is trying to re-invent a yo-yo.
He wants to call it yo-yo-yo.

Air yo-yo? Googled it and got nothing. Want to clarify or should I assume it's some kind of obscene activity?

Awesome! My 10-year old picked up the Rubik's cube recently that was given to him when he was 5. It took him the last three months to figure it out. Man, I still can't wrap my head around it. He is obsessed with the thing. Tonight, I had to scold him to put it down during dinner.
It's a beautiful world! Gerald.

Amazing, you can tell that takes a huge amount of practice.

He needs better music! Pantera, "Walk" would be epic.
