44FESTA Vol.13 – Ready for Worlds!

June 9, 2015 By Rafael Matsunaga

When we say 44FESTA is the coolest yo-yo meeting in the world, we’re not kidding. This was the last 44FESTA edition before this year’s World Yo-yo Contest, and what was the surprise mini-contest? English lessons and quiz!

Yes! The 44FESTA crew is making sure the Japanese players do their best to receive all foreign players flying in for the contest, so the mini-contest was about common English phrases related to yoyoing!

There’s still time to learn some Japanese before Worlds and reciprocate their kind hospitality. I highly recommend you start with the most useful word “SUGOI”, which means amazing, and applies to everything in Japan, from the Japanese players’ mind-blowing tricks, to Tokyo’s futuristic skyline.

Next was a much-anticipated freestyle contest to take a sneak-peek at some of the best players’ routines, but also including a rare demonstration by the World Yo-yo Contest head honcho himself: National Master Hironori Mii!

Check out Hajime Miura’s winning routine, and try not to drool too much at 1:04!

  1. Hajime Miura
  2. Shota Saga
  3. Tomoyuki Kaneko
  4. Daiki Tanaka
  5. Mizuki Takimoto

Watch all of the freestyles here!

44FESTA will be on hiatus until after the World Yo-yo Contest, and returns on August 29th. If you’re still in Japan after Worlds, I highly recommend you join Masanobu Iwata and the 44FESTA crew in their next installment!

Backspin x CLYW – Petr Kavka / Waves

June 9, 2015 By Steve Brown

The recent Israel National YoYo Contest had some excellent local talent, as well as some big-name visitors from out of town! CLYW’s Petr Kavka and Backspin’s Piotrek Smietana were both in attendance, and when they weren’t swimming or partying they took to the roof of their hostel for some filming. Enjoy!

Be sure to support Piotrek’s “We Are Throwers” documentary campaign on IndieGoGo if you haven’t already!

Yoyo used is the Scout by CLYW.
