I've never felt more proud of a stranger in my life. I love that he's his own hype man. Congrats, Evan! You're amazing.

[@EvanNagao]

Thanks!!!! Hype hype hype hahaha

[@thebrandonvu]

Actual rockstar... fuar congrats Evan!!!!

[@raymondtrabulsy7294]

That's the first time I got chills for a yoyo routine. Great job.

[@trinomulligan2774]

Raymond Trabulsy the song certainly helps 😃

[@alixdunham6992]

totally!

[@roebro.44]

bruh i still fucking cry over this shit. idk its the music and his energy

[@metallitron9000]

@@roebro.44 - that grin on his face the entire time, you can tell he is truly passionate. It's fantastic! Best yoyo performance ive ever seen.

[@5wisher5weet]

Not my first but first in about 18 years.

[@JonnyUnderrated]

Damn...I just learned a lot about the world. Never thought watching a full grown man with a yoyo could be this entertaining and awesome. Cheers to this guy! Flawless performance...I cant imagine the actual dedication that must take/have took him. Crazy.

[@roebro.44]

JonnyUnderrated hes still like 21 so but he was yoyoing from like a very very young age

[@prod.eenigma]

Evan have been yoyoing since he was one year old and his dad have been organizing yoyo event for just as long

[@jones780]

He looks like he’s having the time of his life. Aside for the actual technique and skill, he somehow has a smile on his face and finesses the crowd the entire time. Unbelievable.

[@juliancheemy5157]

I don't think there's any other player who really lives the moment on stage like Evan

[@ChumblesMumbles]

Good choice on strategically cutting the song - it's a verrrrrry looooong sooooong. He made good cuts to a smooth buildup, slamming guitar craziness and then into the finish.

[@prod.eenigma]

ChumblesMumbles you routines are only 3 mins long Max or else you could get disqualified

[@veridian4433]

I never thought Yoyoing could be this intense

[@dreoutcasting4415]

If you know how our scoring system works, yeah. Intense. xD

[@moonmanvic]

Veridian I remember saying that back in '99 when I started learning advanced stuff, that's probably intermediate nowadays lol.

[@bassman3212]

@@moonmanvic I got into yoyoing in 1998, and I remember watching the world yoyo competition in 1999 and was blown away by all the tricks they could do. Back the doing double shoot the moons, and punching bags, and reverse ones was like pro level. Along with all the different string tricks they did, I learned a lot like back then, but holy shit, I wouldn't have held a candle to what they do now lol. And I considered myself almost on a pro level back then lol

[@bassman3212]

But for back in 1999 all the tricks I actually could do, was up to par, now it's just insane lol. Crazy how far they've taken it, makes me wanna buy a yoyo again, memories

[@thenoobiebmx]

I want to visit an old friend today I met him roughly 6 years ago. Well I see he had a yo-yo, so I pick it up. Well I flick my wrist, the yo-yo doesn’t return to my hand. I was like yo wtf ??? He takes it from me and begins this sorcery. I just ordered myself a Yo-Yo... I’m gonna get all the bitches now...

[@MarHaiYoyo]

I can't believe that I stopped yoyoing for 5 years and missed this gem of a routine. Absolutely incredible. He knew his routine so well.

[@trannghiemhien4419]

10/10 Performance

[@RobertToudouze]

Might be the best, most energetic and fun routine ever. Congrats Evan!!

[@ChristoCurrents]

Not going to let my boss hold me back from my rockstar dreams anymore. Telling me I cant YoYo at work. I'm quitting my job.

[@Not_Mii_Uus]

2:02 guitar face in yoyo routine LMAO this was so dope honestly

[@jvandeal]

I never thought I would enjoy watching a yoyo competition but I was in trance during the whole time. So much energy!

[@KL-vl9ed]

Glad he lived up to what he said he would do! Such an unexpected, amazing performance that totally deserved to win. Congrats Evan on your victory!!!

[@Downcom1]

The best part is how much he is enyoing himself. It brings so much to the performamce. 😊

[@ppolor]

LETS GOOOOOO

[@NtGism]

Holy.....cow! I never would have thought that a yo-yo performance could be so rock 'n' roll, that was sick. Loved the buildup for the solo at 1:20. Great job man. If I were a rock band I would hire you for our live performances

[@Lil.Saigon]

This dude really playing the guitar with a toy

[@devinwilliams9956]

Jason Win you just made a new style. 6A. Six strings. One yoyo.

[@thechannelitrollwith1645]

I just remember where I recognize the name. His dad and Team High Performance were my absolute role models for a while as a kid. I’d go to their yo-yo classes weekly. Evan was a tiny prodigy. I just read that he quit at 6 because he was bored lol. Pretty awesome to see such a passionate performance and that he won World’s before retiring.

[@marshallamplification60TSL]

Best guy in the game..period..hands down. His enthusiasm makes ya want to vote this guy on. Bravo!

[@kevinnightmareszzz6140]

That was a beautiful performance and the music choice was something we don't see today very often and he did such a good job using it in this routine, He definitely deserved that win, congratulations Evan that was amazing!!

[@simonolesen3436]

Probably the best freestyle in yoyo history

[@moshi29.]

Evan Nagao is a Legendary 1A yoyo Competitor

[@agnospore2779]

easily the best freestyle ever

[@LTViewtube]

The amount of pure joy in his face, that level of fun is why we throw. Absolutely brilliant!

[@jasonl4718]

I was Googling where to buy a yoyo and ended up here ;P WOW!!!! I can barely make the yoyo come back up sometimes. Seriously.

[@Dvdog007]

He just Introduced my one of my all time favorite bands to a whole new audience, Lynyrd Skynyrd!! I've never watched a yo-yo competition before, but between the music and your performance, I was tearing up. nice work!!

[@kestin46]

I know nothing about yo-yo but the title of the reddit post brought me here. I watched and was smiling the entire time because it just looked like fun. Great performance!

[@nukestorm7917]

Mind blowing and for the first time a yoyoer realy enjoying himself on stage instead of boring straight face!

[@stuarttwhite9775]

Evan's always the one who gets the standing ovation. Before it was the floor tricks; now it's just that he's the best.

[@hamdogcs]

HOLY MOLY THIS IS THE BEST YOYO FREESTYLE IVE EVER SEEN

[@둥글래-y5r]

What is this free style!! It is so amazing!!

[@Nixxen]

Started off "hmm. He's OK." then the hype kicked in. Good job man!

[@prod.eenigma]

Nixxen bet you could do better the tricks in the beginning are actually harder

[@diegohernandez1988]

I have been without yoying for maybe 2 years so far and this dude just made me to return right away. :') amazing. (Sorry for my English, not my native language) :p Crazy, Evan. From Mexico :)

[@juliancheemy5157]

I hope he wins worlds

[@ConnorSeals]

This exact freestyle should win worlds if the evals are scored correctly

[@hisyam9271]

GOAT performance, but i think other players at WYYC can nail technical points more than this fs

[@aota.]

Hisyam Ramdan yeah, we can all root that Evan wins worlds, but damn there are some seriously insane yoyoers outside of the U.S..

[@EvanNagao]

#battleforshanghai

[@prod.eenigma]

Evan Nagao dude you have a great chance just try to hit your tricks well enough

[@mysticwolf11]

I just watched a man guitar solo with a yo-yo and I've never felt more astonished in my life. Way to go!

[@Tia-Marie]

This should be known in all time the only context in which “Free Bird” may be requested - with epic yoyo accompaniment; I had almost expected the finale in flames like an intensely performed Hendrix’s guitar

[@JetNekko]

1:38 I'm cryin

[@VonFalcon47]

That's probably the hardest trick in the entire performance, if he messes that routine the yo-yo gets tangled up and it screws him for good, had he failed he would have lost but seeing it done, damn, he made it look easy, really good job.

[@JustAnotherYoYoEr]

It's just a few Brent stoles... Done in the most difficult possible way, A M A Z I N G
