Seconded. We’ve got some stiff competition here folks, it’s been a blast this far.

Though I did get that small wave of fear wash over when I saw him enter as well.

Round 2 submission in the books. Didn’t like it at first, but I think the spin before the final zip gave it a little flair.

Edited to include most current submission.

Sure is amazing! All of these fancy throws and along comes a Duncan. Guess it is the player and not the throw.

What happens if there are three guys left and none of them can get the trick? Do they have to do a different trick or is it over?

It may be a while till we are down to 3, and looks like at least several are gonna make it the round 3.

After getting some sleep and reviewing my video, I’ll be replacing that submission. I got so executed because when I got off work, I could not do zipper stalls. I learned it while making dinner and could t help but try and record before I settled down for the evening. I’ll leave “flair” to videos after the contest is over/I’m out of it.

Fun fact:  
I haven’t picked up an unresponsive yoyo since the contest started (a bit before it started actually)!  
And I’m perfectly okay with that

Here is mine. I’ve been so swamped I was worried I wasn’t going to be able to get a video for this round. Never tried zipper stalls until 5 minutes ago. If I get time to practice them more I may replace my entry, but wanted to make sure I got a video in.&nbsp; And count me among the guys who can’t count, think I got 4 in.

Showing off the axle got cut off to keep it to instagrams 15 second limit. Is what is in the video sufficient?
