Vimeo is a major video site though, and has been for a long time, I don’t understand that criticism. Facebook or IG would be… really bad, so that’s just plain not a good idea. ---

What is Iori doing right before the last bind, did he just shift the plane of the yo-yo?

I think so. When he does that loop before the laceration, it looks like he added a little bit of tilt. Looked a little knotted up, but still looks cool. ---

He didn’t shift the plane of the yoyo. He didn’t have to - since he executed that move at the tail end of a horizontal combo (although semi horizontal) where the yoyo is already tilted to begin with. ---

I was just watching the live feed. There is a video running on stage with some ads. One of them had text that was foreign so I couldn’t read but had a short video of a blue spin top that the person was able to “squeeze” like it was some type of rubber material. Are these at the contest? Anyone know anything about it?
