same… and he’s a good twenty+ years older than me (unless he spent most of his youth having “a VERY good time”) so he’s probably more like the yo-yo craze of the 60′s or even the 1860′s
@allysan. In the late ’40s early ’50s Filipino experts hired by Duncan (yoyo) were allowed to put on demos in schools. I saw my first one in Miami Shores Elementry in 1945 when I was in THIRD grade.They also were on stage at double feature movies (entry 9¢) You silly kids don’t know crap. The guy in this vid is my age.
And i would have smacked myself in the face about 20 times lol.. No more like i would’ve smacked myself once and threw it on the ground cussing it out and never touching it again lol
First
Omg, how cool is he?
Skills!
ever watched “the letter blue” by guy wright, for example ?
another type of play, well skilled too ^^
The yo yo craze of the 80′s was preceded by the yo yo craze of the 60′s. This is a very cool dad.
Wow! i was a pretty decent yoyo user in the 80′s, but this guy just owns me.

Where is Tommy Smothers? The original Yo-Yo Man!
This is becoming a lost art. Totally makes me want a yo-yo for my birthday.
go for it !!
you’ll find specialized forums and shops on the internet.
i did it 3 years ago, and i just wish i age like this, there’s no coming back
Guile’s theme came on while I was watching this. It did indeed go with it.
At age 10 or so I showed my mom that I had finally managed to get my yo-yo to go up and down instead of just going down and spinning…
She took it from me, then proceded to do some of the stuff you see here. I had no idea that she had ever even picked one up before.
I never touched a yo-yo again.
story of my life. >_<
I think we all wish our grand parents were this cool.
that’s cool and all, but can he do the invisible man?
