September 23, 2015 By Steve Brown

Big news in the Asian yoyo scene! Benson Fok (2012-2014 1A China National Champ / 2012, 2013, 2015 1A Hong Kong Champ) has left Something by YoYoAddict and joined new Chinese brand YOYO.Y. I caught up with Benson on Facebook and he had this to say about the switch:

YOYO.Y is a new company in China. I hope i can try my best to improve the level of yoyoing in China and bring them as a main spot in the world in the future.

Check out this announcement video, also featuring new YOYO.Y team member Ju Zi Liang (2015 5A China National Champion).

CYYC 2012 – Freestyle Winners

January 3, 2013 By Steve Brown

Information about the Chinese YoYo Championship is a little thin since I can’t read Chinese, but here’s what Google Translate had to say:

In 2012, the Chinese yo work ACG again organized by the Chinese professional yo contest, professional exchange platform for Chinese yo enthusiasts, the game continues to promote Chinese yo movement for the purpose to improve the level of the Chinese yo movement, hope that the Chinese yo players in the internationalstage goal achieved outstanding results, and make China a lengthy motion to continue moving forward.

Match time: the preliminaries Dec. 30 final Dec. 31 and Jan. 1
Preliminaries Location: Guangzhou fashion Tianhe Square
Final Location: Guangzhou Pazhou Poly World Trade Expo

Huge thanks to the folks at Hong Kong YoYo Fan Club for posting videos of all the freestyles! More video is still going up, so check out their YouTube channel for the rest of the finalists. Champions freestyles are posted below!

As I understand, there are multiple “National Championships” in China due to large rival manufacturers each holding their own major contests and only recognizing their own as the championship. From the backdrop on this one it’s hard to tell who is responsible, but hopefully we’ll see one single event supported by all Chinese manufacturers in the future. Although, considering the general struggles in the worldwide contest scene and the slow, miserable death of the current World YoYo Contest over the last 6 years or so, I guess we here in the US don’t have much of a leg to stand on when asking another country to “get it together”, contest-wise.

Benson Fok – 1st Place – 1A (Single YoYo)

Yiu Siu Ho – 1st Place – 2A (Double YoYo Looping)

Wong Chak Wing – 1st Place – 3A (Double YoYo String)

Yam Lan Ting Justin – 1st Place – 4A (Offstring)

Ng Chun Kit – 1st Place – 5A (Counterweight)
