Your opinion matters

Hi there ,

I have been thinking about this for awhile now but I would like to know what are your thoughts and opinions. I am considering to blog about kendama. I just started playing with the kendama early 2013 but didn't really played with it till last year 2014. So I am wondering whether will it be good for me to fill in the details of Kendama body structure , combination of tricks concepts , videos and even player highlights of the month. 

This is a kendama by the way

and that's me !

Anyways this is just an idea and I would like to test the water. I would appreciate if you guys leave a comment down here for me and you guys get to decide on this since you are the readers and without you guys , this blog will not be running till today , so thank you in advance.

If there is anything else you want to add or any other suggestions , do drop me an email at wyvernstrings@gmail.com or just go to "contact us"

Till next time,

Angel-Yo : Yo-yo class

Hi readers ,

If you have read my previous post titled "The Journey (part 1)" , you are aware that I have been playing with the yoyo since 1999. In the recent years, based on my observation that yo-yo players in Malaysia has the potential and the skills to do complicated string tricks but sometimes they are lacking the basics. 

So I came up with a plan to set up a yo-yo academy , thus the birth of Angel-Yo. The main reason for it's existence is to educate younger generation of yo-yo players about the basic fundamental of a yo-yo , which includes, yoyo maintenance, string maintenance, 30 basic tricks, and yo-yoing ethics.

It doesn't just stop there once the student has completed their basic level. They are eligible to move up all the way to a professional level , whereby they will be able to choose they own division to be an expert on. A professional yo-yo player that has represented Malaysia, competing at Asia Pacific Yoyo championship and World Yoyo Contest , will be your mentor.

Why would the student need a mentor ? It's simple. It is totally a different feel playing on the stage in-front of the judges with clickers, competing with world class standard players for the champion title, compared to playing in your own room or with friends.

We will teach you how to overcome your stage fright, stage presentation, and combos composition.

BUT

I am going to need your help to make this happen. I'm going to be honest with you. I do not have the sufficient fund to make this happen. I have set up a crowdfunding on Indiegogo and I am hoping the readers or anyone that is looking at this blog right now to contribute any amount that you can in-order for me to make this happen. It is purely voluntary to donate and the details is in the following link :

https://www.indiegogo.com/projects/angel-yo-yoyo-academy/x/10274940

My goal is to make yo-yoing as part and parcel of every school's / college's extra curriculum in Malaysia. Angel-yo has set up a syllabus that serves as a guideline to teach the students.

For further enquiry , please feel free to drop me a message at wyvernstrings@gmail.com or message us at Angel-yo Facebook page.

Till next time,

A little lubrication goes a long way

Hi readers ,

Yes yes , I know , I have been away for a very very long time. Please accept my humble apologies. I have written something similar to what I am about to write today but unfortunately that website is down and I could not retrieve back what I have written before.

Yo-yo bearing plays a huge roll in a yo-yo. As I have mention before , without the bearing , a yo-yo is just a piece of metal screwed together and tied at the end of the string. Which technically doesn't serve any purpose unless its a fixed axle yo-yo. A proper maintenance for a bearing is crucial. Therefore proper lube for different type of bearings is a must know knowledge for any yoyo player.

WHAT ARE LUBES ?
