That's an impressive logo, and and even more impressive program.

 

Mike didn't draw that, did he?

I thought I was a hot-dog when I taught my son to use a Yo-Yo since I could rock-the-baby and walk the dog.

 

Well my son has taken Yo-Yo's to a level I have never seen before.

 

In this Youtube video you will see an an un-edited video of what can be done with a Yo-Yo. The style is free-hand because the yo-yo is not tied to a finger but rather a small ball is attached at the end normally tied to a finger.

 

Ther are other styles as well including "off-string" where the Yo-Yo is not attached to the string at all and let you do some amazing arial tricks (outside).

 

If that link does not work, just serach for "9 mm bullets perperoni" (Arnold's favorite toppings for pizza) and you will find it.

 

Please post a comment if you do visit that link.

 

If you know of others that are in this league of yo-yo-ers plese share a link if possible.

Please take a look. At first glance it may look like a bunch of video tricks but its all real. He and I have been talking about building custom Yo-yos to let him take his tricks to another level.

This is the best video series that I have found on the subject:  http://yoyoexpert.com/learn/301-counter-weight-overview.html

 

He will teach you from the beginning.
