Hi Evan! I want to ask you two questions.

1. Can you tell us the episode/event that made you fall into yo-yo and what made you a champion?

2. Your signature yo-yo Edge has a thick flat rim. Is there any specific reason for that? If there is, what is the reason?

Thanks 🙂

1. I can’t say there were any specific moments that made me interested in yoyo. I think it’s just been a compilation of many different moments.

2. Honstly, I just wanted a bi-metal that didn’t look or feel like all the others. They all play relatively the same to me. I wanted something different.
