Ewin Ee sent us this clip video from his trip to the 2015 World YoYo Contest, filmed entirely on an iPhone 6. Neat!

Five-time Malaysian National YoYo Champion Ewin Ee visited Vietnam to hang out with some friends and get a look at their quickly growing yoyo scene. The scene in Vietnam has been very much on the upswing these past couple of years, and the talent is growing quickly. I think we can expect to see some top players coming out of Ho Chi Minh City really soon!
The 2014 Malaysia National Yo-yo Contest was held on June 6th and 7th, and marked the tenth edition of the contest!
This 1A winner was Zafran Aqil, who had placed third last year. While he did not have the cleanest routine, he kept his cool, and took the crown with plenty of pretty cool arm combos.
Veteran Ewin Ee took first in 2A and 4A, adding to his massive collection of national titles, while trick monster Hassan Marialis was once again crowned 3A, his second in the division back to back. 5A also had last year’s winner keep the crown, with Alif Izwan winning his third title in a row!

You know a great contest when you can watch three long clip videos and still find yourself wanting more! The Asia Pacific Yo-yo Championships has a tradition of delivering those, and this year is no different!
We start off with this sweet clip from Brian Low, which has the best intro ever!
Jason Kao brings us this incredible clip, which has no yoyoing in it, but perfectly shows us what AP is all about. And has the cutest thumbnail in history, too!
And we wrap up with one more clip video from Ewin Ee:
Do not miss AP if you ever have a chance to attend. I can personally attest it is the most fun a person can have in three days!
