Andy Jones is the best thing to come out of Sheffield since 3/4 of Def Leppard. Congrats to him on being picked up by Smashing YoYos, and congrats to Smashing on gaining a great player!
Yoyo used is the Smashing YoYos x Scales Collective Float.
SLVRANDBLK x Aleksandar Bachvarov
Damn.
Simple as it gets, saw him on stage, loved his style. With the light fading, we filmed tricks in the unforgiving cold. Aleksander remained unphased and chill throughout.
Yoyo used is the CLYW Borealis.
SLVRANDBLK x Ciczlow – Flughafen Wien
Roland Thomas-Biason got stuck at the airport after EYYC with Josh Vickers, and that means we get a video! I think the take-away here is that if Roland gets stuck anywhere for any length of time with another yoyo player, we get a video. Moar, please.
Yoyo used is the G-Squared Banshee.
SLVRANDBLK x Marionette ft. Armani Gentles-Williams
For the past 22 years, I’ve actively visualized yoyo tricks in my head for hours every day. I’ve never picked up a yoyo without first seeing clearly what I want to do with it in my mind, and I don’t believe that I’ve ever physically accomplished anything I’ve ever imagined. My entire yoyo career has been a never-ending series of intense disappointments stemming from the fact that I cannot figure out how to make yoyoing look in real life the way it looks in my head. This video is the closest approximation to how my yoyoing looks in my head. Impossible symmetry and fluid, repeating movements that defy reason and ability. Creating endlessly shifting patterns that evolve at the moment you’ve comprehended them and leave you behind. For decades I’ve described yoyoing to people as “temporal sculpture” and finally, a video that looks the way yoyoing feels to me. Thanks to Roland Thomas-Biason for shooting and cutting this incredible video, and to Armani Gentles-Williams for the tricks.
Yoyo used is the Smashing YoYos Monocle.
SLVRANDBLK x Jonah Koen – GRAIL
Jonah Koen reached out to Roland Thomas-Biason for some yoyo video advice…because hey, when you want some help you run for the best, right? So Roland took it a step further, gave him some shooting advice, and then edited the video for him. Perfect.
Yoyo used is the A-RT Grail.
SLVRANDBLK x Andy Jones – Ex Champion
SLVRANDBLK Films brings us an intense trick dump from Andy Jones right before they head to Iceland for the 2017 World YoYo Contest. Andy. My dude. You are fantastic.
SLVRANDBLK x Andy Jones x Paul Sargent
Andy Jones and Paul Sargent put in some work in this new video from SLVRANDBLK Films. We love watching these guys play! Filmed in glorious Bristol, the birthplace of Portishead and Massive Attack (yay!).
Yoyos used are the YoYoFactory Replay Pro and Smashing YoYos Monocle.
SLVRANDBLK x Throwing Metal in The Land Of Grey
SLVRANDBLK brings us another great yoyo video from the grey gloriousness of London. Good tricks, bad weather.
SLVRANDBLK x Stephen Langley
Stephen Langley is the most decorated drinking champion in the entire European yoyo community. He’s also pretty good at yoyoing, with 2 EYYC titles in the 3A division. Check out some sweet 3A (and even a little 1A) in his latest video, shot and cut by SLVRANDBLK.
Yoyo used is the Werrd 86400.
SLVRANDBLK x Azim Jameel – Camden Lock
Filmmaker Roland Thomas-Biason (aka SLVRANDBLK) captures some truly lovely counterweight yoyo play from Azim Jameel. Quality stuff.
Victor Sacchelli x Armani Gentles-Williams – Really Cool
New yoyo tricks from Victor Sachelli and Armani Gentles-WIlliams, filmed in Camden by SLVRANDBLK Films! Good guys, good shots, good tricks. Hell yeah.
SLVRANDBLK x SAM SHAMIA – Mill Hill
All good things in this new video featuring Sam Shamia…solid tricks + great shooting and editing = good times!
