Joe Wilson Joins Recess
…and the hits just keep on coming! Recess is scooping up all kinds of talent for their international team of sponsored players, and Joe Wilson is the latest to make the jump. Joe is the 3x Virginia State Champion, and spends a lot of time running school and library shows on the East Coast. He’s a great ambassador for the sport, and it looks like with Joe the Recess gang is looking to actively step up their school presence. Always great to see a new company really putting focus on getting new players into modern yoyoing.
Congrats Joe and Recess!

John Jimenez – #notanotheryoyovideo

Tyler Severance In The News
Tyler Severance landed a nice interview in the Shawnee Dispatch to promote the YoYoFactory 80-70-80 tour’s upcoming appearances in Kansas City, Kansas and the surrounding areas on March 24th – 28th.
Tyler, Clint Armstrong, and Joe Wilson will all be appearing at area schools and Go Big Skill Toys, and working hard to create more new yoyo players.
Severance said the goal of Team YoYoFactory, which is made up of a group national and world yo-yo champions, is to change the negative perceptions that exist about yo-yos and yo-yoing.
“We want to show them that yo-yos are so much different now,” he said.
The main difference is how yo-yos have evolved with the addition of the ball bearing in the middle.
“Now you can learn and do the same tricks we are doing with the same yo-yo if they practice,” he said.
Severance, along with his YoYoFactory teammates, Joe Wilson and Clint Armstrong, plan to bring that message to Shawnee later this month for a weeklong visit.
Team YoYoFactory will be appearing at Go Big Skill Toys, 12156 Shawnee Mission Parkway, from March 24-29.

The van rolled out of our base in Phoenix Arizona Feb 19. It wouldn’t be a road trip without some unexpected delays and a new water pump (to replace the one we just replaced!) saw us get to our staging point in SF a little later than expected. The crew onboard, Clint, Joe and Tyler would be de-touring to Seattle for PNWR to collect Ann and get to our first official tour stop, Nevada City California. Where you say? Nevada City Its a small Gold Rush town located 60 miles NE of Sacramento. Why? Why not! The store owners at Mountain Pastimes were super enthusiastic about having us out so here we are!
