Have a look at the current lineup for the 2025 Florida State Yo-Yo Contest.
If you are considering a contest this is the one. Please check out all the divisions including the New SPEED LADDER CONTESTS for Beginners and Advanced Players, we want everyone and anyone to compete in that and try to see who can get the best time with least amount of misses. Sports Division in the 13 and up category could use some players but 12 and under is stacked!
In the Champions Division we have the 1a Prelims and Finals. Dual Hand which includes 2a and 3a, 4a and 5a. In the Champions Divisions, in addition to the top three podiums the highest ranked Florida resident in each category will be named Florida State Champion and presented with special awards.
Also Doc Lucky’s Duos and the addition of the Florida State Kendama Contest. Add in a great venue at Dezerland Park in Orlando Florida just down the street from where some of the most legendary world championships went down.
There is even a Yo-Yo and Skill Toy Flea Market happening just afyter the contest.
The idea on this ladder is to get through the list as quick as possible with the least amount of missed tricks. You have a certain amount of tries on each trick and then must move on. It’s probably the best strategy to stick with the same yo-yo.
Also sorry if I didn’t say hi to anyone, I’m not a very outgoing person in general and I was already exhausted by the time i got to there which makes it a bit more difficult for me.
It’s a 2 and a half to 3 hour drive for me depending on traffic and it just sapped my energy.
I feel that, making it to NER and then FINDING the venue inside the small city- sized mall was exhausting lol, I was beat by the time I found the contest.
