“More fun with the Crisis Flip, a move I introduced in my battle with Spencer on YoYoNews (yoyonews.com/2013/05/10/spencer-vs-drew-mind-melee/). This time, after swinging the yo-yo up into the thumb hold, I drop the slack for a Takeshiesque suicide. Fun fun!” – Drew

Measured Hop – Steve Brown
5/11/13
“Came up with a trick today, turned out it was an Ed Haponik trick already. Went back to the drawing board and ended up with this oddball that started with a Tape Measure (inspired by Ed, who was inspired by Jon Gates) and ends with a null hop (inspired by Drew Tetz). I like twiddling with other yoyo players styles sometimes.” – Steve
