New Here

[Sideswipe]

Hey all, new to the site. Used to yo yo a lot when I was younger, just picked it back up in the past few months. Pretty much a beginner, learning some better tricks... Working on the Atomic Bomb for now. I currently have an Ooch Smoov in Orange, just ordered a Cafe Racer today, super excited for it! Other than yo yos, I'm a car guy, building a street/race car right now, and I work with kids (emotionally disturbed ones). I let them use the Smoov, so it's been beat up pretty good, the Cafe Racer won't be touched by them :lol:

Looking forward to learning some new tricks and having fun with the hobby again!!

Thanks for the welcome! I will keep that in mind, mighty kind of you sir. 
I decided for today to work on the Houdini Mount and Trapeze Brother... Should be pretty easy to get 'em down today... Just gotta wait til I get to work (I left my strings there, and yes, I get paid to play with my yo yo).

It's pretty nice  My g/f gets kind of upset when I throw in public (walking into the movie theater last week haha) so it's nice I still get a lot of time to play.

Nah, I am in Social Work. I work with kids diagnosed with Reactive Attachment Disorder at a Residential Treatment Center. It's not all play, those kids can get dangerous at times

Welcome to the forums!  It's always nice to have a person start yoyoing.  Also, to use the Cafe Racer, you need to learn how to bind.  <div><embed type="application/x-shockwave-flash" src="http://www.youtube.com/v/ym6pAwjNV5c&amp;ap=%2526fmt%3D18&amp;rel=0" width="425px" height="344px" wmode="transparent" quality="high" allowFullScreen="true" allowScriptAccess="never" pluginspage="http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer" autoplay="false" autostart="false" /><noembed><a href="http://www.youtube.com/v/ym6pAwjNV5c&amp;ap=%2526fmt%3D18&amp;rel=0" target="_blank">http://www.youtube.com/v/ym6pAwjNV5c&amp;ap=%2526fmt%3D18&amp;rel=0</a>

I found this video very helpful.

Thanks! I have binding down pat. I bought my Ooch Smoov not knowing too much, so it was a trial by fire
