Future Boyz – Throw Down with MK

By

Japanese EDM group Future Boyz (you might remember them from their appearance at the 2015 World YoYo Contest) just dropped a new video for their song “Throw Down with MK” and yeah…it’s a straight up yoyo video. The music video features Shaqler, because they are amazing, as well as stage footage of a pile of different players from the recent THROWDOWN contest in Japan.  I’m always excited to see our scene get some love…huge thanks to Future Boyz for shining a light on some of the best players in our scene.

Featuring Shaqler (John Ando, Atsushi Yamada, Shu Takada), Ann Connolly, Tessa Piccillo, Hajime Miura, Marcus Koh, Ben Conde, Carlos Braun, and Paul Kerbel.

John Ando – How To Do A School YoYo Demo

By

World YoYo Champion John Ando gives us a look at his work as a yoyo demonstrator in this video. This routine is a great reference for any aspiring performers out there…this is a great example of how to build a yoyo routine for a room full of young kids.

This video shows you the basic package of what a school yo-yo demonstration might look like.

In modern yoyoing, it’s easy to get lost in executing too many complex looking tricks. Unfortunately, non-yoyoers will not understand that aspect of brilliance. A balance between the easy (flashy tricks) and hard (complex tricks) is essential to pull off a good show. If you plan to do a school show in the future, I hope this can be reference to building your own. Remember, balance is the key.
