I love watching Hajime Sakauchi, the dude is a beast! I’ve been lucky to see him live a couple of different times. I definitely recommend checking him out

Yukihiro Suzuki (Rest in peace) will forever be Pinnacle of 2a for me. His level of control and understanding is something we haven’t seen since and players still strive to reach the level of the things he was doing.

Forever a big inspiration.

This was the performance that got me curious enough about Yoyo to buy a butterfly xt at target on a whim. I love Shu so so much! An amazing player and an amazing ambassador of the sport/hobby!

Hands down Matt Harlow. Even though he retired in 2003, he’s still IMO the US GOAT. I genuinely miss this style of 2A play, speed and flashy style tricks. I remember him choosing the song for this freestyle literally the day of, and with no actual freestyle practiced and still won against a talent stacked 2002 BAC field of 2A players. Matt was truly gifted in that he could see something and be able to reproduce it almost instantly. Just pure raw talent and the funnest to watch/hang out with.
