Why We Throw - YoYoExpert Experience - 2014 Cal States

We are Yo-Yo Players and we throw for different reasons.
We throw because it brings us happiness and flow to our lives. Our meditation. We throw for the experience. For the friends and people we meet. We throw for the personal satisfaction of hitting a trick on and off the stage. The accomplishment and drive to always learn. We throw with meaning and cause. This is our art and our passion and an expression of who we are.
This. Is. Why We Throw.
YoYoExpert was a proud sponsor of the 2014 California State Yo-Yo Contest and we teamed up again with the amazing Dennis Barahona to bring part of the contest experience to you.
Get a feel of what it is like to be at a contest and why we throw. What it means to the players. What it feels like to watch history in the making. Whether you are there to observe, learn, or just be part of what is pushing our sport into the future. We thank all of you who attend these events and urge more to keep an eye out for a contest near you.
Thank you and enjoy.
- André Boulay

[@yoyoexpert]

Thanks Noel. :-)

[@joseph_lacy]

Yes we do this is like the best video on youtube

[@rexly8158]

Indeed we do

[@BaityGamers]

Awesome video, I wish I was there to meet so many yoyo players. I dont have any friends that yoyo like I do, but, they thonk its really cool and aways give me some (moral) help when Im yoyoing. It makes me feel really good and even more when I get to learn new tricks. Im a 1a yoyo player, Im like a starter but I can do some cool tricks. One day I'll get to the top. And thats why I yoyo.

[@yoyoexpert]

Thanks for your great comment!

[@BaityGamers]

YoYoExpert thanks, you guys are amazing! XD

[@yoyoexpert]

Hey David - Have you checked out the Duncan Yo-Yo Gloves yet? shop.yoyoexpert.com/product/72/Duncan-Yo-Yo-gloves

[@BenGates]

My only criticism is the kendama trick at 4:15, feels kind of out of place without verbal context. Otherwise this was fantastically produced and very enjoyable to watch. So much more than just a contest clip video, a nearly perfect visual document. Who did the music? No credits? I think the players names deserve the be recognized somewhere in there, even if it were just a list in order of appearance at the end.

[@JackPearsonfilms]

I yo-yo because it's fun and satisfying I want to do it forever rest of my life And i can i keep at it

[@guitargodpete007]

[@vadimeu375]

Se deep.... so true.... supporting yoyo as a sport when so many people see it as a toy is very hard and painful. Thank you YoyoExpert for this video and thank you for making the best you can. Thank you for your only way of being and helping. Thank you and if my English was bad is just because I'm nervous when I have to share my feelings....

[@Jovi_97]

Trying to get into it.. its hard.. its.. really hard It's a challenge that requires a lot of practice .. and i still suck at it xD

[@deathto]

I know what you mean bud, but when you master the trick it's very satisfying. :) It sure is harder then you would initially think.

[@ElishaLong]

JoVi []_[] How's it coming along mN

[@coreybrian45]

[@masonrichter5292]

[@richardfabien2812]

musique??? please.... parce que au top.... merci...

[@densaliv3478]

Yppah- Never mess with sunday 😄😄

[@5hua86]

Anybody throwing in Memphis?

[@metalboy5150]

Late as hell reply, but yeah, if you mean Memphis, Tennessee. Well, Millington, but right there. Lol, nobody else, though....guess it's just the two of us. 😜

[@5hua86]

+Michael Pate haha I used to live in millington actually. a buddy of mine throws too. shoot me an email man [e-mail]. we're trying to get a club started maybe this spring or hell, it'd be fun to just all meet up and share some tricks sometime.

[@metalboy5150]

+Josh Barnett Man, that would be super cool. I'm a serious beginner, like I've just recently gotten to where I can throw a trapeze halfway consistently, and from everything I've seen, it's just more fun if you've got someone to throw with (and maybe easier to learn if you have someone to tell you what you're doing wrong 😜). I'll email you for sure.

[@ljummy2]

Music ? I like that vid it's beautiful

[@prayfortradesproductions818]

+Tomás Barrgan Yppah - Never Mess with Sunday

[@nakada1996]

I'm inspired! !

[@123jaera]

AWESOME

[@calebsun492]

who's the guy with the speed combo at 1:01

[@metalboy5150]

Really stupid late reply, but since no one else answered, I'm pretty sure that's Rei Iwakura. You see him later in the vid doing 4a.

[@tylane72]

@@metalboy5150 its michael nakamura

[@metalboy5150]

Tyler Lane Oh my God, man. I know it is, too. I feel like a moron. Don't know why I had Rei Iwakura on the brain, but yes, that is totally Michael Nakamura. My apologies to both players, should either of them happen to see this.

[@CallmeJip]

Trick at 3:50 plzz

[@yoyoexpert]

Yoyoman52 Agreed - we will work on that one. Can you already do Takeshi Boing? yoyoexpert.com/learn/081-expert-takashi-boing.html

[@CallmeJip]
