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

Yoyo used is the Hour by Werrd.

and Sweep – Yuji Kelly
“A very recent trick. One of very few where I had the vision of what i wanted to do with the trick and worked toward achieving it, as opposed to stumbling across it. Judging by how simple it is i don’t doubt that a few other people do this one already.” – Yuji

Inspiration came from watching Spencer Berry’s video Debt in Knowledge, and the name is a nod to that.” – Jacob
