Timeless Yoyos Presents: What We Do in Life, a yoyo video showcasing Dylan’s current 1A tricks and concepts.

[![]( " - YouTube") ](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XiBJ5sdpStY)

“What you do in Life, Echoes in Eternity”  
This concept has been a big presence in my yoyoing for the 2012 year as I tried to make progress in the ever more competitive contest 1a scene. With a large amount of inspiration coming from the idea that one day I want to be able to challenge and contend at big contests. A goal that seemingly materialized for me at this years US nationals finally ending a half decade of not making it to the finals. Up until this year when I would look at my past achievements in yoyoing the thing that came to my mind was always my 2007 US finals medal on my mantle. For years now I would look at it and have this thought, kind of like a little confidence boost that at one point in life you did have it together and you were competitive. Especially after a long string of poor showings at contests in 2011 the only thing that kept me going was the hope that eventually I would be competitive again. I really just felt like I had to do something. So at the end of the 2011 year I made some big changes, focused on strictly 1A only and came out swinging in 2012. So after a long 9 months of intense dedication I would like to present the fruits of my labor.

If you try to do some of these tricks dont be like me use a rounded edge yoyo or something that when it hits you wont draw blood because you will hit yourself haha. It doesnt happen as often anymore but when i was first working on some of these tricks it got a little sketchy at moments especially with a non rounded edge yoyo.
