Oh man, you should look into it. The yoyo (toy) scene is going through an absolute renaissance. Here's a good video from Wired to get an overview of the hobby.

I'm not much of a collector, but my daily driver is a "MagicYoyo T5 Plus Overlord" I picked up on Amazon. One day I'd like to upgrade to something like the "Monarch."

Here is an alternative Piped link(s): https://piped.video/-wiNh4LLQzg

Piped is a privacy-respecting open-source alternative frontend to YouTube.

I'm open-source, check me out at GitHub.

Sorry about the delayed response. My job is kicking my ass. Here's a link to all the modern yoyo styles of play. If you want to dive into the hobby, feel free to pm me and I'll be happy to help.
