YoYoJam will always have a special place in my heart because they treated me really well when i was on the team. Team YYJ forever.

I got sponsored by JapanTechnology by having Atsushi approach me during Japan Worlds. He said he wanted to ask years earlier but didn’t want to overstep on YYJ. Atsushi said when he and his team talked about bringing someone from the US he wanted only one person. So after many years on YYJ, I felt it was time for something different and I believed in Atsushi and JTs vision of 4A yoyos.

What’s your favourite song?

What do you think of classical music for freestyles?

Do you have any 4A tricks that are inspired by the diabolo? If so, which ones?

Does having prior experience in playing the diabolo help in learning 4A?

My favorite song at the moment is Instant Crush - Daft Punk there is something really calming about it.

Have you seen Terry (shingo) 4A routine is beautiful.

Yes there is a couple of tricks I based on Diabolo tricks. I saw that some people with Diabolo do tricks without the diabolo spinning and created this trick on that concept. - [instagram.com/p/CGsOK59BYYo/](http://instagram.com/p/CGsOK59BYYo/)

Im sure it helps I cant say since I discovered Diabolo after yoyoing.

Quoting Rumsfeld, bravo. Maybe you should put a sketch of his glasses on one of your designs.

Are you a fan of Black Flag? Their logo always reminds me of the Unknown 1s or ls or whatever those are.
