My brother and I got in to yo-yos in the late 90s. It EXPLODED at our school(s) during that time, every single person had a yo-yo and everyone thought they were awesome. Then it sort of died down again after 3-4 years.

I could do all sorts of advanced tricks and stuff, and I had one of those ball-bearing yo-yos that could spin for over an entire minute at the bottom on a throw.

An important thing to realize in these videos is that the yo-yo is spinning the entire time! All of the tricks they do depend on the yo-yo remaining a vortex of spin, so all of those "cat's cradle" tricks and stuff are with the yo-yo spinning like 90 MPH!

They are great fun and I've always considered getting another one!!!!!!!
