Spinworkx Showcase
Spinworkx, the standard bearers for the Singapore yoyo scene, recently held a small “Showcase” freestyle contest to give their top players a chance to work out new tricks and routines and give everyone an excuse to get together during the holidays. The event is also used as a judge training event, with both for players who want to better understand how freestyles are scored and for players looking to be better trained as judges so they can assume that role for the next generation.
Looks like it was a small, intimate event but still with plenty of talent. Check out a couple of highlights below, and head over to their YouTube Channel to watch the rest.
