Sterling is my favorite 5a player. To me it seems like Sterling is really making the counterweight a part of the trick instead of just spinning it around.
Sterling’s freestyle is my favorite. I never really payed any mind to him before, since I considered other players to be more elite. But since I saw his Worlds freestyle this year, I’ve gained a new respect for him. He really blows my mind with his innovation and flowing style. Plus, I find it hilarious how ridiculously long his string is.
I really liked Tyler’s Worlds routine because it was epic. Really innovational and still really fast and flowing.
Miggy is crazy. There is a ton of stuff going on and it is so chaotic that you have to watch it a few times to pick up what’s really going on.
JonRob has amazing style, but he makes it hard for himself to win contests later in the season because he is using all of the same tricks he was using in January.
