My first throw was a Duncan and with that, I got really obsessed with attempting to match the wizardry of Team Duncan. I can remember trying (and failing many, many times) the wizardry of Janos Karancz. The rejections and slacks are out of this world. I was only a young grasshopper (pun intended) when this came out, but it motivated me to try harder and riskier tricks. One of the best 1a World Finals I have ever seen!

This one is hands down the most memorable for me. This was the freestyle that got me into yoyoing (I believe it popped up on my recommended) It was a freestyle with lots of zoning even to this day.
