Collecting  
Last year’s goal for 2013, was to focus more on certain areas of collecting (YYE Editions/titaniums) and spend 25% less than in 2012. I accomplished that, and I like where my spending is. So, I think this year’s collector goal is:

1. Find the few obscure things on my want list;
2. Get what’s new in the specialized areas I collect;
3. Try some high end brands I haven’t tried (probably more Japanese brands).

Playing  
Player-wise, whatever…the tricks take me where they take me. Never a big deal to me, cause I yo-yo at home.

Business/Creative

Probably come up with a new prototype accessory to pitch to YYE. Find some new ways to take the photos up a notch, whether it’s different equipment, learning new software, or different ideas for shots. It should be fun.

1. Curb my yoyo purchasing. I’ve been doing pretty well recently so I hope to hold out. I may buy a Puffin 2 + YYF Aviator, but hopefully that’s it for a while. 🙂

2. Put out my first video and make it a good one.

3. Start working towards competing at Nationals in 2015. I could compete this year, don’t get me wrong, but I want to go in with enough skill to place high, so I need to practice tonnes.

That’s about it for me. 🙂
