I am announcing the winner of this contest this coming friday.

I have to re-watch some entries to make sure that I am fully justified in my decision of the winner.

Yes, the winner will be posted on the forum and on facebook.

And your winner for the Z-Creative 2012 Online Yoyo Contest is none other than…

Alex Curfman!!!

You have beat the rest and proven your creativity ascends many others! It was incredibly hard to choose but I had come back to your video many times merely to be in shock and awe of this trick!

Creative, impressive as heck, smooth, it had everything I was looking for and then some. You stepped up the plate to show me what you got and I applaud you sir.

Give a round of applause for Alex!

Thank you everyone that took the chance and showed me what you got. I really appreciate everyone competing and trying their best. Tomorrow I will be posting some worthy mentions that I feel I need to say to everyone as well.

2013 I intend to do this again so get your trick ready for it as it will have a 2nd and 3rd place prizes!

The Z-creative Worthy Mentions!

First Mention: Okamura Daiju

[![](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/yoyoexpert1/original/4X/c/2/a/c2a0c5755e19d28baa8567d598aa9da0fe5f85d9.jpeg "Sophisticated Structure\_Daijyu Okamura") ](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kT2pAkIuTxM)

Daiju has been around in yoyoing for awhile. I befriended him on Instagram and he added me on here. I always like the photos he takes of his Onedrop and CLYW yoyos. Atsushi Yoshida sent this video to me in a message saying Daiju was entering this into the contest. Unfortunately, the video did not fit the cri  
teria of the contest so it was disqualified.

HOWEVER- It fit when it came to creativity and so dang smooth! You just HAVE to watch!

Second Mention: Adam Brewster

[![](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/yoyoexpert1/original/4X/3/0/2/302764fe361261de7420bedc5c1239dede4298e5.jpeg "Around Des Moines") ](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p6alVjavBtY)

When it comes to creativity and innovation, Adam Brewster is the man yall should be looking at. Hailing from Iowa and a member of the CLYW team, Adam knows how to develop material that will make your brain melt. He entered his trick known as “Straight Jacket Escape” which really pushes his folding type tricks.

Could not find the video so I just linked his clip video that has it!

Third Mention: Marco De Lucia

[![](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/yoyoexpert1/original/4X/f/d/d/fdd39c47c170c9c01271156a471afffb8bef430b.jpeg "Z-creative Contest Entry - Markyoer(Marco De Lucia) : GT Storm") ](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=biSjTkQdUeE)

Macro had entered into the contest when he messaged me and I noticed he sent a friend request a long time I never got to. We chatted a bit saying he was a fan and when I got to watching this, I was really impressed. Marco does have a disability BUT he has a good heart and the courage to take on the world!

I RESPECT you Marco. Your the kind of person I wish to be, someone that will keep rocking out no matter what. Keep yoyoing man!

Those are the three mentions I wanted to post. Thank you all for entering the Z-creative contest.

I’m Zammy of Onedrop, Until next year! Keep advancing your skills!

~Z
