Umbrellas – Jacob Deffenbaugh
12/21/13
“Jacob Deffenbaugh is an incredibly prolific yoyo player…he’s just so far out in left field that it’s easy to write him off as a loon. Plus he’s just not as good at promoting himself as Ryan Gee, but he’s just as talented and just as more or less insane.” – Steve
Song is “Turn Up My Light” by Mario Gajarsky.
Yoyo used is the Protostar by YoYoFactory.
Harmony Or Else – Ed Haponik
11/29/13
“Harmony…or else” was the slogan of my old Aikido dojo. It’s actually emblazoned on a sweatshirt we did (with a graphic of me getting SLAMMED). I liked it for the name of this trick (which is a series of “fake regens” into trapeze stall), because pretty much any hiccup will cause the yoyo to flip and the spin direction to go all crazy.” – Ed
Yoyo used is a No Jive.
Song is “Say The Word” by Echo Chamber Rope Trick.
Transdimensional Regeneration – Ed Haponik
11/22/13

One-Handed Helicopter – Rafael Matsunaga
04/29/2013
“Seeing your trick being done on stage after ten years is one of the greatest joys in yoyoing. I’m quite proud of Helicopter. Or Super-Hyper-Magic-Twirly-Bird, as Glasseye calls it.” – Rafael

Let’s Get Small – Steve Brown
4/21/13
“Yesterday I was making jokes about how small people’s tricks were getting. Today I decided to make an actual trick to make fun of it. I’m pretty sure this is literally the smallest possible string segment you can get away with…the yoyo actually has to hit my fingers just slightly in order to get into the mount before the counterweight is released.” – Steve
Song is “Courduroy” by The Wedding Present.
Red Leaves – Steve Brown
12/22/12
“I still really, really love dumb sequences like this where the dominant motion is just dropping the counterweight. Feels like juggling.” – Steve

Lasagna – Drew Tetz
12/21/12
“This was one of the first 5A tricks I ever made, and (I think) one of the first counterweight wraps. If you’re trying to learn it and it moves a little too fast, try doing an extra pinwheel before doing the wrap… or just use really long string and a heavy counterweight, that always worked for me.” – Drew
Yo-yo used is the Barracuda by Duncan Toys.
Song is “Lasagna” by The Knife.
