2012 Japan Nationals Day 1 results

By

Day one of  the 2012 Japan National Yo-yo Contest is over, and as expected, a fierce competition took place in all divisions! See who’s joining the seeded players tomorrow!

1A

  1. Ryota Ogi
  2. Shinya Kido
  3. Amane Ookubo
  4. Shinnosuke Miyamoto
  5. Ryosuke Iwasawa
  6. Shinya Azuma
  7. Tatsuya Fujisaka

  2. Takuma Inoue
  3. Yuuichi Tominaga

5A

With just three spots in 2A to 5A, it’s no surprise that some of the favorites did not make it to the final round. Taichiro Higashi in 3A, and Ryota Torigoe in 5A got fourth in their divisions and won’t be battling for the title. In 1A, a notable absence among the finalists is Reiki Sekiya, who ended up in 15th and is also out of the final round.

Be sure to watch the live stream to catch all the action of the final day! It could well be the toughest edition of Japan Nationals yet!

We’ll be back tomorrow with final results!
