What got you into throwing, how did you find the hobby? I think it was during the winter of 04, when a couple of my friends picked up a couple YYF F.A.S.T 201's after their tour came through Chicago. After playing with one of their's at recess, I went home and asked...
Player Profile: Doc Lucky
What got you into throwing? How did you find the hobby? Like any other kid in the 60s & 70s, I played the yo-yo a little bit, maybe a little more obsessive than the average kid. In medical school, I found a yo-yo and trick book, and to kill time between classes, I...

Player Profile: Eric Koloski – YoYo Expert
What got you into throwing, how did you find the hobby? It all started during recess in elementary school when I saw some kids playing with yo-yos. I asked where they got them, and they pointed me to the most amazing toy store ever—A2Z Science and Learning Store!...

What got you into throwing, how did you find the hobby?So, my son Justin started yoyo’ing about ten years ago. In the beginning, we spent almost all of our time watching contest vids and talking about yoyos and yoyo players. A few years into it he started competing...
Player Profile: Katie Thompson – YoYo Factory
What got you into throwing? How did you find the hobby? I first saw yoyo tricks in 2013! I was in 8th grade and 14 years old! I was a very shy and introverted kid, and was in desperate need of something to grow my confidence. A group of yoyoers called The N.E.D. Show,...
