The Uber Coolness Of Yo-Yo Geekdom

yoyo1 Ok, we’ll be the first to admit that we don’t know squat about yo-yo’s. Basically some string tied at one end to a spool … Duncan is a major yo-yo brand … “walk the dog” and “around the world” are yo-yo tricks. That’s the basic extent of our knowledge.

WRONG! Little did we realize, but there is some serious 
yo-yo geekdom going on … filled with contests, endorsements, advanced techniques and even its own culture. Yo-yo’ers (guess that’s what you call them) are some serious bad asses … honing their ninja-like skills … crafting insane moves and techniques.

Not really sure we’ll ever see yo-yo’ing in the Olypmics or even the X Games … but nevertheless, these freaks rock. Just check out the video below from this year’s California State Yo-Yo Championships … you’ll be blown away by the crazy shit these yo-yo’ing fools pull off and get a new appreciation for the sport (?is it?). Trust us … this video is TIGHT!
