44Clash

Registration has opened for 44Clash!

The legendary contest took last year off for the organizers to regroup and focus on other endeavors, but this prestigious (and somewhat secretive) event is back! The number of competitors will be limited, so if you’re attending you should register as soon as possible. Rules have also been posted, so make sure you read carefully and know what’s going on.

44Clash will take place November 22nd & 23rd in Yokohama, Japan, just outside of Tokyo. 44Clash is known for attracting the highest levels of play in the world, and for keeping the event closed…freestyle videos are not posted and photography is generally not allowed.

VYZ Contest Freestyles

By

Seriously, anyone want to take a guess how many yoyo contests there are in the Czech Republic every year? I feel like every time I look up, another one happened. For a country that is 1/125th the size of the United States, I could swear they have at least as many contests as we do. It’s awesome, don’t get me wrong, just crazy!

Check out the top freestyles below from the recent VYZ event in the Czech Republic.

2014 Triple Crown of YoYo

The 2014 Triple Crown of YoYo was yesterday in Chicago, IL at Navy Pier, and in spite of the contest moving indoors at the last second due to rain, the event was a tremendous success! More than 50 competitors showed up for a chance at cash and prizes, including a $1000 First Place! CLYW player Michael Kurti took home the top prize, with Duncan’s Isaac Sams in second place and Wisconsin State Champion Nehemiah Peterson in third. Duncan player and former National Champion Sebastian Brock came in fourth place, and took home an Honorable Mention prize in the form of an original painting by John Higby!

Full results are below…thanks to all the players and sponsors for making this such a fantastic event.

 1st Place – Michael Kurti (CLYW)
