What happened to Yo yo's?

Yeah, just like BB gun wars. Only 1 pump on a Crossman 760 😁.
Oh man, I remember those. My uncle got my brother one for Christmas but only one pump?
Na! 😂
Based on these posts, I see it was a popular rifle!

I got his hand me down Daisy CO2 pistol
We had one of those target range things in our basement

I have to admit, I don’t ever remember shooting them at each other although I remember one Halloween a crazy cop in our neighborhood started shooting at us as we walked down the block as group with a BB gun
He was actually a friend of one of my neighbors and I guess was doing it for fun lol
 
Cool post, you just took me back to the many memories of them. Sadly they have been replaced by cell phones and tablets. No need to stand up or do any type of physical exercise /coordination anymore. 🫤
Yo Yo'ing beats pickleball any day thought, right? Not that I care one bit, but how desperate is coming up with names they had to resort to pickleball?

I sincerely don’t understand what you’re saying. 🫤

I think you’re making fun of the sport Pickleball or it’s name that was created around 1965?

You do care for some reason about the name of a sport because you think the name is silly? It’s explosive growth proved it’s not so silly.

It’s a great workout in our overweight nation that can use more physical exercise 🙃
More injuries for sure but that’s a heck of a lot better than heart disease, cancer, and diabetes.

Nailed it. Nothing against yo-yo but it's not a work out! Came here to write this. +1. Accolades.

Honestly pickleball has turned my life around, no I wasn't an opioid addict but I was way way too sedentary - warning pickleball may lead to pump classes and heaven forbid..............yoga

 
Most folks just got tired of the single trick that took them 7 years to learn and then the string frayed.
Yeah, that was me... Video games with some buddies, skateboarding, bmx biking, ball hockey, hacky sack, almost anything was more fun IMO, than messing around with a yo-yo... My one buddy was pretty good, he had several tricks he could do, but I was all thumbs it seemed.
 
I have a Duncan Special, Imperial and a light-up Butterfly.

My favorite is a Yomega Fireball. I don't know where I bought it. I kind of recall it was from a casino play area?

No flywheel weights.

I pretty much suck at it.

If you think the yo-yo is dead, youtube Worlds yo-yo champions. There are hundreds of amazing videos.
There are national and world yo-yo contests every year. It is actually a sport now.
If you giggle at "Pickleball", get out of the road or get run over. It is the world's fasting growing sport.
The diabolo is still around, just not very popular.
Spin top play today is incredible. A good player never throws the top on the ground. There is also a worlds spin top contest.
