Kojo Boison To Head YoYoFactory Europe

January 16, 2013 By Steve Brown

YoYoFactory has announced that 2-time and current German National YoYo Champion Kojo Boison will be stepping up to run YoYoFactory Europe!

This continues YoYoFactory’s tradition of hiring entirely yoyo players for all major business positions in their company, something that makes them unique in the yoyo industry. As a company that has always claimed to be by and for the players, they’re putting their payroll money where their mouth is.

Congratulations, Kojo!

YoYoFactory – Team Russia 2013

January 16, 2013 By Steve Brown

YoYoFactory has a history that goes back almost as far as modern yoyoing in Russia. In 2007 we sent the first international Pros into Russia for more than a decade. We have watched, and supported the growth of one of the youngest and most active YoYo scenes on the planet. YoYo in Russia is no longer a new novelty, it is a real sport. This is our Team.

New Concepts from Igor Galiev & Andrey Glukhov

January 16, 2013 By Steve Brown

New concepts video from Igor Galiev and Andrey Glukhov. I really enjoy listening to players that I don’t know discussing what they are doing…it’s as much of an insight into their creative process as the tricks themselves.

2013 East Japan A-Block Clip Video

January 16, 2013 By Rafael Matsunaga

The East Japan Yo-yo Contest A-Block was held on January 5th in Tokyo, and Hiroshi Osada brings us this glimpse of the event in his clip video.

Recent Japanese contest clips show an interesting mix between the 1999 Hyper Yo-yo generation and the kids who started throwing thanks to the new Hyper Yo-yo campaign of the past couple of years.

First American-Made Kendama

Kendama Co just released their new project. They have been hand turning out kendamas in Colorado for months now. Each Kendama is turned from cherry wood harvested in the Appalachian Mountains.

There is lots of controversy around “the first US made dama”. Lemme weigh in my 2 cents. Yes kendamas have been made in America. PAW, random kid in Georgia, Up Town Joe, some guy in Florida, and a guy from Woodturner Magazine. The point is that this is the first mass production of hand turned kendamas that are available to the public. The first full American kendama brand. Everything else is in China. Sweets, Shinzhu, Tribute, and every other Dama brand from America. So as far as the first American kendama I say Kendama Co takes it.

It’s been a dream to have American Kendamas for a long time now. Big ups to Kendama Co for making the push
