I'll start: I yoyo, unicycle, and origami (paper folding)
Yoyoing is a pretty big sport these days, there is a yearly world competition with 5 different divisions, with people from all over the world coming to compete.
The division are: 1a: this is one yoyo, doing tricks based on landing the yoyo on the string + Show Spoiler +
4a: this is one yoyo, but it isn't attached to the string + Show Spoiler +
5a: one yoyo, but instead of the string being attached to your finger, it's attached to a counterweight + Show Spoiler +
I do mostly 1a (not nearly as good as the video though), but I've dabbled in 5a and 2a.
Unicycles I'm still learning, right now I can only go forward, and turn. I'm learning to idle (stay in place) and ride backwards, but I'm not very good yet.
Origami is the art of paper folding, at first it might not seem that great...until you find something incredibly complex, such as this clock from one (very large) sheet of paper: I've been folding for 7 years now, and am just starting to get into designing models. My best one to date is a person with all five fingers on both hands (don't have a picture though )

So, TL, what are your hobbies?
wow, the guy in the first vid totally looks like a teen/twen version of mark sloan from grey´s anatomy. oO
my hobbies?
starcraft, table tennis, procrastination. rather sad somehow.
i would say working out counts as a hobby, I'd call it one of mine at least although I have been too poor for a gym membership for some time now
one of my hobbies is watching anime, which sounds really lame but I was pretty intense about it and have learned a whole ton of japanese as a result, now studying some of it at university
holy crap, the yoyo thing with it not attached to the string is the sickest thing i have ever seen.
to anwser question, along with SC2, i play LoL and Minecraft as less frequent things, i play the Trumpet, bowl, tennis, and very limited access to, but well practice, moves to Pen Spinning.
Haha I'm glad someone posted some touhou screenshots. Good stuff, can impress people while playing even though it's not as hard as it looks (some are...). FFR and Stepmania are also good to impress people.
Well, I also like doodling in my notebook in class...
But I guess my favorite hobby is table tennis. It's a shame I can't play a lot in college (no people, terrible equipment).
