Specialty

My favorite tricks are all the tricks Rolf can't do; late goons, string pinches and other such new school nonsense.

Got in to dama

My best friend and competitive yo-yo player bought one and brought it to summer camp. I played it and never put it down, ended up stealing it and breaking it at home because I played it so much.
