I Owe You, Jason Lee – Steve Brown
Another “Figure 8” inspired trick. Keeping it intentionally simple to focus on the circular movement. I really like the drop from the 1.5 to a trapeze in the second rep of Figure 8….subtle and small, but it feels nice.
Song is “Joe Versus The Tornado” by Army of Ponch.
Air Mattress – Steve Brown
There are at least 5 versions of this trick….I finally gave up and filmed this one. Still working on it, though….a work in progress!
Song is “Foil Monkeys or Bread Monkeys….Either One” by Army of Ponch.

The Kirby Complex – Jacob Jensen
“This trick demonstrates basic use of an ephemeral traveling loop. The loop is generated by the non-throwhand and travels along the string, and the yoyo intercepts it to form a GT. I drew inspiration from Doc Pop—not from any particular trick he did, but from his approach. As for the name, it has nothing to do with vacuum cleaners or video game characters, it was merely a phrase that was going through my head when I was developing the trick.” – Jacob
Song is “Time Limit” by Casiopea.
