And last but not least, Rafael Matsunaga takes a little inspirado from Drew Tetz and comes up with something awesome.

 

Work on those. We’ll see you next week.

I’ve been slacking on giving you folks the weekly roundup from 365yoyotricks.com. And by “slacking” I mean I did one, and then totally forgot about it when I got busy with other projects. Ha ha whoops!

Here’s the last week worth of tricks from me and the gang…and be sure to follow @365yoyotricks on Twitter and on Facebook for the daily updates!

 

Jake Bullock reminds us that he’s been doing 3D tricks for a ridiculously long time with FLOUNDER3D.

 

Spencer Berry gives us the gift that keeps on giving…by jamming a repeater in the middle of White Buddha.

 

You know how sometimes you just want a trick to move really, really fast and have a very low success rate? Yep, I made another one of those.

 

Darnell Hairston wants to make sure that everyone remembers how awesome frontstyle tricks can be.

 

Play responsive. There are still more tricks hiding in there.

 

Pekka pekka pekka pekka, pekka pekka pekka. Pekka, pekka pekka pekka pekka pekka!

 

Rafael Matsunaga dusts off an old combo from 2003, and adds even more to it. Come back in 2023 for a 6-minute version of this trick.

I post a lot of videos here, but with 365yoyotricks.com putting out a new trick every day it seems a little much to repost those every day. So instead I’m going to do a weekly round-up, which should keeps things more manageable!

The 2013 season features myself, Spencer Berry, Rafael Matsunaga, Jake Bullock, and Darnell Hairston…in addition to as many guest tricks as I can fit in there.

First up we’ve got some early tech 5A from former Trick Innovator of the Year, Jake Bullock.

Spencer Berry brings back Magic Drop with this super flexible repeater

I make things needlessly difficult with this awkward and mostly pointless suicide:

Up-and-comer Darnell Hairston gives us a new trick inspired by Zach Gormley:

I pop in again to take one of Jason Lee’s best-known tricks and make it about 2/3 as cool:

Ed Haponik drops in for a guest spot to make us all reach for a wooden yoyo:

Brazilian National YoYo Master Rafael Matsunaga drops a 10-year old mount and makes it look good again:

And Jake Bullock brings it all down with a crazy-long tech 5A construct that leaves you with a lot of homework to do.

365YoYoTricks.com Announces 2013 Roster

By

I’m ridiculously excited to announce the 2013 roster for 365yoyotricks.com. If you haven’t been following, I started 365 in 2011 to see if I could create, film, and post an original yoyo trick every day. I pulled it off, and it was exhausting. So for 2012, I put together a roster of players whose play styles I really enjoy, and had them contribute weekly tricks. I’m continuing this for 2013 with a new roster of players; I’ll be contributing 3 tricks a week, and the players below will each contribute one…plus we’ll have special guest players pop in from time to time! So without further ado, here is the roster for the 2013 season of 365yoyotricks.com:


Rafael Matsunaga

National Yo-yo Master and 2003 5A World Champion, Rafael is known for his highly conceptual and visually-appealing tricks. He is the founder and president of the Brazilian YoYo Association, and head organizer for the Brazilian National YoYo Contest. He spends most of his time disguised as a computer geek.

 

Jake Bullock

Co-winner of the 2007 Trick Innovator of the Year Award, Jake is one of the most gifted and under-appreciated counterweight yoyo players in the world. Jake was a massive force in the early development of tech counterweight play and, along with Jonathan Robinson, ushered in a new style of counterweight play that dominates contests to this day.

 

Darnell Hairston

Darnell Hairston is an up-and-coming player from the Cleveland YoYo Club who managed to land a spot on the coveted YoYoFactory Protege Team. Mentored by National YoYo Master Steve Brown, expect to see Darnell destroying contests all over the Midwest in 2013.

 

Spencer Berry

Spencer Berry is responsible for a tremendous number of the building blocks of modern yoyo play. He is the creator of genre-defining tricks such as Breath, Rancid Milk, and Laceration and is generally regarded as one of the founders of modern yoyo play. His signature yoyo, Walter, will be available in 2013.
