Here is a playlist of several tricks from the California State Yo-Yo Championships.
Some of the clips were used in the #calstateyoyo2012 video, but there many that did not make the cut. Many of them were not filmed correctly, so lighting and focus issued prevented me from using these awesome shots in the video. Nevertheless, check out the playlist because there’s a TON of great stuff here.
(Video is downloadable on the Vimeo page.)
