It depends on whether there is Transportation there or not. Amtrak and Greyhound aren’t reliable on weekends. It’s only a 2-hour drive from my place. Let’s keep this post alive until after the competition. This may be one of the few chances we have to meet each other in person. I’ll be the kid with the Grey Fox, SM, and Legacy. The Grey Fox is zinc, banged up and cotton string. Red SM, black Legacy.

B-Grades are less then perfect metal yoyos, usually this means flaws in anodizing or a bit of vibe, but they still play great and they are a great price! basically YYFs way of giving people who might be a little tight on cash to own a high end metal yoyo.

You forgot, not only YYF sells B-grades.They are also called different names by different companies.  
Fools Gold for CLYW, B-Grade for YYF.

As a first timer to a contest, I’d say it was enjoyable. Plenty of contestants and a number of yo-yos and accessories to be bought. I felt there could’ve been more vendors and maybe something like a yo-yo class, but that’s just me :P. Cold as hell though.
