In the 1920’s a young gentleman from the Philippines, named Pedro Flores, worked as a bellhop at a Santa Monica hotel. Carving and playing with wooden yo-yos was a traditional pastime in the Philippines. Pedro discovered yo-yo playing drew a crowd. The name "yo-yo," which means "come-come" in the hotel. Soon Pedro started the Flores Yo-Yo Company. In 1929 Donald F. Duncan purchased the company and developed the loop string, which makes the Yo Yo capable of doing the tricks.
