On the actual contest portion it is without music and based on technical skill, showmanship and audience reaction. I would bring music for possible use during demos before and after the contest. The music needs to be “radio safe” no profanity. ---

There is always the possibility for music in the future and I’d bring what you have this year. ---

All right. Is it okay if I use it in a demo? ---

I’ll have my PA set up and we should be able to play it. We had music with a great 5A demo by Shannon Jackson a few years ago. ---

Tried any 2A? I just came back from ABQ and had a lot of time to yo-yo. I ended up switching back and forth between 1A and 2A. Looking forward to the rest of the MALEFIC video. There are a few Northwest NM yo-yo trick film projects in the works. ---

Looking forward to the rest of the MALEFIC video. There are a few Northwest NM yo-yo trick film projects in the works. I’ve never tried 2A. I can’t even one hand loop. I want to learn this summer! MALEFIC is lookin good right now. I’ve story boarded the intro and filmed it. I’m glad you liked the preview! ---

The Yomega Glides will be in two separate bags. I’m still busy promoting the contest and have been offline. I’m giving a yo-yo workshop tomorrow and then a show on Saturday. There is a stack of contest flyers going to both events. ---

I’m always hoping for more than the previous year. There will be 100 yo-yos given out tomorrow along with contest flyers at the Farmington Public Tween Summer Reading Yo-Yo Workshop 10 am. I hope the workshop will encourage more people to take up the “Art of Yo!”. I also have another workshop coming up on June 27th. ---

Nice. Looks like there’s more too! I lost my banner in a move. Is vulto sponsoring this years contest? How are your yoyo workshops going? ---

Your wall needs a Duncan banner or it’s just a wall. I haven’t heard anything from Vulto this year. I know they stay busy with a lot of events in South America and in Europe. I do have some Vulto strings and will have them in one of the prize bags. The workshop last week was fun! I sparked up a YoYoFactory Ricochet for the first time for the group. I have another coming up on Friday at 1:30 in the E3 Children’s Museum. ---

> [@Luke\_Renner](#): > > Your wall needs a Duncan banner or it’s just a wall. So true. What else did Duncan send? How long is a demo? A trick I’ll be doing if I make it to the freestyle portion: [![](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/yoyoexpert1/original/4X/0/a/4/0a44fdd8522e3d8c44483257b0fbc88c12fa7333.jpeg "...VIBRANT...") ](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tJlWvaMVKi4) ---

There is a redesigned Echo in the Duncan mix and a few other things. I’m interested to see how the new Echo plays. I picked up the original Echo when it first came out at the 2010 National Yo-Yo contest. The demos run a few minutes in between the live music and raffle drawings during the Ice Cream Social. I’m looking forward to Saturday. I just ran into someone who saw the TV spot for the contest. ---
