Paul Dang (Sorta) Leaves One Drop

June 19, 2017 By Steve Brown

Paul Dang is leaving his job at the One Drop shop for a new city and new opportunities. He’ll still be on the team, and involved with OD as a sponsored player, but he is moving away from Eugene. For those who have grown used to his shop videos and his calming presence, this is a huge blow. But for those who just wish the guy well and are happy to see him happy, it’s a great step forward for a solid guy. Cheers to you, Paul!

Bonus: a few of the Tech Creator / OD folks got together and made a Dang tribute video. Awwww.

Tech Creators Presents: Paul Dang

June 1, 2017 By Steve Brown

Paul Dang is the latest player to fall victim to the wanton allure of the ~~Dark~~ Tech Side. These kids and their “tech” tricks, I swear. Back in my day we just tried to get through Creeper, and that was good enough! Now it’s all flibberty doo with the string all the time, how about you play with the actual yoyo for a change! *stomps off angrily in wrong direction*

(Love you, Paul. Nice tricks. See you at BAC?)

Paul Dang – One Drop Life

August 22, 2016 By Steve Brown

Paul Dang strapped a camera to his face and put together this “day in the life” look at his average day working for One Drop YoYos. I personally think this was heavily edited to remove a lot of stuff…there is no way Paul gets through a day without giving out at least a hundred high-fives. Maybe even two-hundred. That guy is a high-five machine.

September 20, 2015 By Steve Brown

YoYoExpert forum member Parvar Singh mentioned that he really wished he could tour the One Drop facility in Oregon…but since he’s in India, that’s probably not going to happen any time soon.

So Paul Dang filmed this video tour of their shop as a treat for Parvar…and for everyone else!

Paul Dang – Seasoned Traveler

Paul Dang and some friends spent some time with The Seasoned Traveler when it stopped in Oregon! Featuring Paul Dang, Tanner Murphy, Chris Miller, and Darin Havens.

The Seasoned Traveler is part of the Traveling Throw project, where a single yoyo is sent around the world for various players to use and film. The Seasoned Traveler is a second yoyo that is being sent to notable pros and sponsored players, while the Traveling Throw is open to anyone.

Yoyo used is the Monkeyfinger TRI-B.

Paul Dang, bringing the heat. Why film more than one trick when that one trick is this good?
