 This trick is called Knotica, I believe I came up with it in 2012. #yostr #yoyo

 Love it.  Now want to get a decent yoyo. 
 Thank you! There’s a bitcoin yo-yo, it’s a Duncan butterfly xt in black and orange :) https://i.nostr.build/Q7V2X.jpg  
 That’s fantastic.  What a great idea. 
 Insane, awesome trick 👏 
 Thank you! Happy to hear you enjoyed it! 😊🤝 
 Black magic  
 🧙‍♂️😳 
 🤯 Very cool! 
 Thank you! 😊 
 man, I love yoyos, its been a while! 
 No way you came up with this trick 🥵
Like 10 years ago my schoolmate came to class with yo-yo and our journey started. It was fun time as a kid and this one was my favorite “trick to go” if I had a chance to throw everywhere 😁 
But my mates were better a lot more and started to doing tournaments. 
I sticked to the kendama just for fun 🤣 Maybe I’ll find somewhere my last yoyo 🪀 Can’t even remember names of these yoyo’s, but I selled them all besides my one blue favorite. 
It need to be somewhere 👀👀


Also I need to ask him if he’s still yoying, he was good at it 🔥

 That’s badass! I am pretty sure I watched that video after the contest back in the day, small world 😊

This is the earliest video I have of knotica https://mikemonty.com/yo-yoing/yo-yo-trick-knotica/

 Competing on stage is ruff I choked under pressure lol that was on like 2010 lmfao… 
 It’s crazy how a routine you have had memorized for months just disappears from your memory right as they say your name and the music starts 😅 
 For real… it’s amazing… never had stage fright before that competition & I have done all sorts of other live solo music competitions etc… 
 Dudes, I found him out 🤣🤣🤣 Noway 😍🔥🥹
It's bearingless admittedly, but those memories🥵 https://image.nostr.build/9cdbae27821ccc5fff5a23325438c39a9b6f2d8764c6f23a7b6bbcdf525d70fd.jpg  
 That’s awesome! 🤩🪀 
 Do you think if I reconstruct it, it could run without any big alignment from dings? 
Maybe I could throw it sometimes just for fun 🪀🫡 
 It should still be useable, you’d need to figure out what the axle was, which can be slightly hazardous if you’re testing them and it gets cross threaded 😅 the ball bearing is most likely a Size C or '0.250 x 0.500 x 0.188 in' those are the most common and my best guess based on the picture. If you search size c yo-yo bearing you should find a wide variety of options around 8usd. I tried searching for your model of yo-yo but nothing came up so trial and error would most likely be needed to find the axle size 
 Wow, thanks for info ❤️ 
Actually I can’t find it myself. Only what I remember back in days is that it should be some limited edition, but actually I’m not sure 🤔 
Wish you best sirr 💜
