Yo wassup did results drop?
They were announced but not dropped yet? Should I spoil it?
This was only my second contest, so I don’t know if he’s done many others, but I thought it was cool that Brett Outchcunis (aka “Ooch”) was the MC. Ooch did a lot of commercials and videos for Yomega and was heavily involved with yoyoing in the 90’s. Here is an old 1998 Yomega training video featuring him and some others - https://youtu.be/TMwoZ-BttRU?feature=shared
Possibly a problem with cell phone reception?
I am seldom known for short replies.
Somebody finally got me… cuz I got nothing🙄
I knew he sounded/looked familiar! I wasn’t there at the beginning, so I didn’t realize. I rewatched some tricks on my Yomega DVD from 2005 when I restarted learning yo-yo last year.
Man, seeing everyone throwing while just watching the competition made me feel like I need to up my game.
Nah man. Come as you are.
I was definitely outclassed in many respects, but a great time was had by all, good vibes all around! Makes me want to take making it to club more seriously, that drive is tough tho lol
When I talked to tyler yesterday he was saying he wants to gauge interest on doing gatherings in philly on the off weeks for tiki tiki, which would be really nice!
I did sports but fumbled but him congratulating me on having the guts to preform has really made wanna really try harder
Here are some photos I took at the contest. I have some more decent ones of a few more competitors and Eric Koloski’s DNA Challenge, but don’t want to take over the comments with them. If you want me to post them though let me know.
I really like what team Ect is doing they’re really chill
I need to get Etc in the Archive! Does anyone have contact info for them? I can’t find it on their website.
Yeah I was also talking to him about the same thing, Philly is prime for another club that meets in the city, the big thing is who wants to be the “anchor guy”. Gotta always have that one dude who is ALWAYS there, even if one other dude shows up, and well… we’re all busy lol
Nathan Joseph I believe is best contact for them, I’m not on IG but I think you can get them there
An old college friend told me my goal “should be to lose your first yoyo contest” as a way of encouraging me and reminding me that it isn’t a small thing to put yourself out there and try (which I have yet to do myself.)
Love the pictures! If you have any of me you can send them my way in dms
