YoYo Store Rewind – Over 40 YoYo Video Contest

YoYo Store Rewind - Over 40 YoYo Video Contest

YoYo Store Rewind is hooking up the old guys with this new video contest! Check out the details below, and head over to their site to enter.

One of the most wonderful things about yo-yo is that it’s an activity that can be enjoyed by people of all ages. Yo-Yoing is most definitely NOT just for kids. We thought it would be fun to see what our adult players can do, so this time the video contest is just for those 40 years old and up!

Not only do we like to see adults playing yo-yo, but we like it even more to see them compete on stage! As a Special Award this time, we will sponsor the chosen winner for one official regional contest and pay their competition entry fee for one division.
(Of course, even if you win the Special Award, whether you choose to compete or not is up to you!)

I had an amazing time in Japan. So many amazing places were seen including Inuyama Castle which is where we filmed this video. This was one project I worked on during my time in Japan, and I hope you enjoy getting a taste of what my experience was like here. Thank you REWIND!

Hey look…it’s me! Hironori Mii shot a little bit of my dusty old self throwing off some tricks with the Shutter while we were hanging out in Budapest for EYYC 2014, and Shinya Kido edited it to make it look like I know what I’m doing. 😉

For the record, I have beat the merciless crap out of that Shutter and it still plays great. I’ve been throwing that same one since August 2013 and it’s still fantastic. Get one.

YoYo Drop – Innovative YoYo Concepts Breathe

By

Innovative YoYo Concepts - Breathe

 

YoYo Store Rewind dropped a new yoyo that is definitely worth a look.

Designed by Ian Cole under the name “Innovative YoYo Concepts” the Breathe yoyo features concentric cut-outs in the body of the yoyo, presumably for weight distribution benefits. The look is pretty unique, although I have to wonder what problem he’s trying to solve with the design, and if the wind resistance is minimal enough to still allow the benefits of those cut outs. The yoyo is machined in the US, and uses One Drop’s bearing and response so it’s a safe bet that it probably came out of their machine shop, which speaks well to the quality. EDIT: Confirmed, this was NOT machined by One Drop.

 

IYYC Breathe Specs:

Diameter: 55.24 mm
Width 45.72 mm
Weight: 68.3 grams
Bearing: 10-Ball, Size C
Response: Flow Groove
Finish: Blasted Surface

Incredible Suicide Catcher – Keisuke Yoshinaga Promo Video

By

YoYo Store Rewind dropped this great promo video for Keisuke Yoshinaga, and it’s basically just three and a half minutes of Keisuke-san hitting the burliest suicides you can imagine. I’m a huge fan of interesting suicides, and Keisuke-san really nails some great ones in this video.

Yoyo used is the MTE by Aero-Yo. String is Kitty String Fat.
