Since your last post in March:

Obviously there have been plenty of new yoyos released. Go on ‘new releases’ and work backwards to get an idea as it’s time for me to hit the hay so I can’t really type them all out.

Gentry Stein won Worlds  
Zac Gormley won US Nats  
Carlos Braun won EYYC  
Ahmad Kharisma won AP

Steve Brown joined CLYW (marketing, not the contest team)

That’s just what comes immediately to mind, but I am shattered so I know there’s tonnes I’ve missed. 🙂
