No no Ive always done it for fun, by myself. I know NO others that do it , Ive always thought it was dead.

To be honest with you, if I knew that there were people serious about it , let alone a whole forum dedicated to it....damn it would have been cool.

When I move to Cali in a few years Im gonna drop by SE and battle you in front of the store.

You don't have to wait till you move here, in the yoyo world we do something called a Video Battle. Thanks to Youtube it's simple and fast.

Unfortunately.. my yoyo company, Anti-Yo's yoyos are sold out at Yoyonation and everywhere else.. kids buying two or three at once on the release date usually equals none left after an hour or so of the release.. we plan on bumping production on our next release to see if they'll stick around for a few weeks after the release in the stores that carry them.

I haven't properly watched the vid yet, as it kept freezing on me but was wondering, is he actually playing a titanium/titanium BSP?

(Maybe it get's mentioned in the vid I didn't watch yet?)

No, he's using a MarkMont, his signature yoyo...

[el hey]

to all the people that brought the SELFEDGE black demin long sleeve shirt

I just washed mine for the third time but I havent seen any good fades yet, has anyone else had any good fades on it? combs?

thanks everyone

I've worn mine a good amount for a couple months, washed pretty much weekly. So far nothing too dramatic like honey combs anywhere, i can see them starting to develop on the arms. Mostly just indigo forming in certain areas. sounds like pretty much everyone else is having similar results

I actually discovered yoyos on Niketalk.

[kenthenoob]

i started yoyoing in the yomega era... but quit... years later, i see sidney and kiya doing it. i didn't realize yoyoing had changed so dramatically.

I'm just waiting for the big fashion houses to cash in on it. I predict: first, denim, sneakers, and then this is next. Gold-studded, metallic Lanvin Yo-yo 2011, $2500, limited run of 500 around the world.

In other news: does anybody else know where I can get more photos of Mister Freedom stuff? I found 'A Continuous Lean's' column, and totally loved the SE photos, but there seems to be nothing else.

Also, anybody who purchased the peacoat, fit pics or wear pics please?

[Charlie Delta]

Check the Mister Freedom thread for everything MFSC...
