Sorry to say I can not compete cause as for now 6 of the 25 ladder list tricks I have not yet learned hopefully next year. Best wishes to all who are!

Ok guys, contest is this weekend! I’d like to remind everyone to please pre-register online. You can find the pre-registration page at [www.georgiayoyocontest.com](http://www.georgiayoyocontest.com) it costs no money upfront, and helps the contest go a lot faster for us! Registration during the contest will open from 10 am to 11 am. If you are trying to decide whether to compete or not, definitely compete! Our sponsors have been incredibly generous this year, and if you guys don’t fill up the divisions, I don’t know how I’m going to give all of it away. However, if you don’t want to compete, but do want to win some awesome stuff, some of our sponsors also donated some awesome stuff to be raffled off, the proceeds of which will go towards covering the cost of the contest. Speaking of our sponsors, here’s a full list of them, again, please support them, without them this contest wouldn’t be possible! [http://i.imgur.com/bn09Pl.jpg](http://i.imgur.com/bn09Pl.jpg) Note! Infinite Illusions is also sponsoring, and will be present to vend, but they have yet to provide me with a logo, haha! Hype picture for you all, and this isn’t even all of it! Packages still incoming from Duncan, Infinite Illusions, and Foxland Precision! ![](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/yoyoexpert1/original/4X/9/3/7/937eb3278b1a880e8522818df94fd773033259cd.jpeg) ---

All right, here are the over all placings and scores. We decided to leave the tech and performance scores separate, just so you guys can know if you need to work on one or another. Please keep in mind, these are NORMALIZED SCORES. What that means is that no, no one only got 7 tech points, it just indicates the gap between first place and last place. If you want to learn more about normalization hit up google =P OPEN: ![](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/yoyoexpert1/original/4X/6/4/1/64188b699e40beb456f617241f7307eadd362a20.png) 1A: ![](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/yoyoexpert1/original/4X/2/5/1/2516d60ea10355ac4c0da2f78a169d03ae35b6b7.png) [Next page](https://forums.yoyoexpert.com/t/georgia-state-yoyo-contest-official-announcement/27402.md?page=2)
