At the German national yoyo championship I competed for the first time. I competed in the 5a division. It was so thrilling, amazing experience. Tomorrow I’ll get the results. I’m really excited. And the party after this was lit, i returned to my hotel 3:30 am lol ---

Congratulations on your first competition! No matter what the results end up being, you’re a champion for getting up there and showing the crowd what you’re capable of. I’m glad the afterparty was a lot of fun as well! You may end up making some really great friends for life. ---

Hell yeah! The first time is a crazy feeling, so is the second and 3rd. If pnwr happens next year, it’ll be my 4th time doing a freestyle. When i’m up there, i forget about the contest and look at it just as a challenge to see if i can hit all my tricks, in a row, in front of people. It’s hard. But fun! ---

I am so hyped for you! Congratulations on your victory, and for having the nerve to get up there and compete in the first place. The trophy and yo-yos you got are awesome, too. Great job and way to go!! Edit - I just finished watching your performance, and you were so good. Really smooth. I haven’t tried 5A yet, and I’m curious how often you end up throwing your yo-yo across the room? I can’t even imagine the number of hours it takes to make it look as clean and effortless as you do. ---

Yooo, thanks man! I’m glad you like my performance. Sometimes my yoyo flies away when I attempt some risky banger tricks. I’m glad that didn’t happen on stage because a yoyo flying off stage can get you disqualified haha! And learn 5a, it’s a cool style 🎲🎲 ---

Congrats! Really nice performance, too! I didn’t realize we were in the company of a champion. I think the throw on the left is the Rain City Skills Author in the Thriller color way. If it’s really light, that’s probably it. ---

Thought I’d check back in to forum-land and this was the first thing I saw. CONGRATULATIONS! You definitely deserve it. You can now officially say you’re a better yo-yoer than me, because you’ve won your national championship. You are also part of a VERY exclusive club of people who won their division at their first competition. I’ll notify the others that we have a new member :wink: Serious bragging rights Savor the victory. Then, keep going, keep pushing. And keep me updated. ---
