You can link your instagram and share it. That’s what I do. How people link the vids is beyond me
In terms of contest stuff remember that interaction with string is what generates clicks. Rail combos get a lot of points. That being said flashier mounts to certain positions will also be given more points than easier variants (e.g. whipping to kamikaze is probably worth more than the standard entrance)

I toss videos on Imgur then link them here. Not ideal but it works. YouTube would work as well

I know that there are no clickers but to stuff such as hooks btb and complicated trick score well

Uploading your video to YouTube (share the link here) is another option.
Either way…. Good Luck!!

The ante contest is an online yoyo conest where you basically have to film your yoyo freeatyle and you have to register(which costs between 10-20$) and then you can submit your freestyle on their web and on the 15th of November they will announce the winners of each division. The top 3 of each division will also get a yoyo as a prize and if you register you will get the chance win many give aways. For more info you can search ante yoyo on google or Instagram

Rail combos are really bad for contests. Maybe in sport rail combos would be good but idk it’s all eval categories

Lol the reason is bc rail combos are made of very easy elements with low risk that usually don’t click and then they’re performed very fast. Just in case you were curious. Sport is just evals so clicks don’t really matter. Although in Ante, one of the categories does reward riskier tricks.
