This is Malachy, a professional yo-yoist I met outside of the Edison Diner in NJ. He’s been at it for 3 years now and had competed in the 2009 yo-yo championship in Florida. The black t-shirt he’s wearing is of Bruce Lee doing a yo yo trick.
I was impressed by his skills and his good natured personality. He was able to whip up this trick really fast to make this cool photo.
Malachy, you’re a cool dude.
