Hey there everyone, just wanted to take a second and announce the Unparalleled Yoyo Flag Contest!

The rules are super simple:

1. Film a flag yoyo trick. Any flag is acceptable. Multiple flags could make the trick even cooler!! Film it and post it to IG (or, if you don’t use IG you can post it in this thread). Feel free to post as many times as you’d like (-:
2. Make sure to tag your post #yoyoflagcontest so that I see it, and also tag our sponsor @unprld.
3. A team of judges (myself included) will pick our favorite flag trick to win a choice between my yoyo and a red recog!

Get to making those flags!!!

During the Scales Live, I heard the question: “Should the yoyo be spinning?” I’m not sure I catched the answer.

The yoyo can be spinning or not spinning. As long as the yoyo formations resemble a flag, you’re good.

String/Yoyo formations resemble a flag. Best example is jamaican flag as seen in this freestyle at 2:06: [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e-8guHfqDI8](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e-8guHfqDI8)
