What is a good song to go to a contest and yoyo to? They have to be fast and beat-full you know? Jensen kimmitt’s song choice was excellent. What are others that hasn’t been used by anyone too famous

It doesn’t have to be fast, just pick a song you love and yo-yo to it

I know mark montgomery tends to have very dynamic/powerfull tunes with a groovy beat and a phat bass

If I were to prepare a specific set, I’d go with some dubstep tune that has a lot of breaks in it

for a freestyle I’d probably go with some more “four to the floor” kind of electronic stuff to give my play some steady rythm, or maybe some oldschool uptempo punk rock, something like oldschool suicidal tendencies and whatnot

I guess it depends on the set and how educated you are in the music culture, I could suggest you a few tunes if you’re out of ideas, I listen to virtually everything that was produced between the 30’s and now.

Something by Dr. Octagon, like 3000. Yeah. That would be awesome.  
Really though, it just needs to be like 3 minutes and easy for you to yoyo to. It’s all preference man.

Dude you just gotta find what works for you. One of my favorite routines was a 2A routine done to the “Rocky Horror Picture Show” theme song. I think this was it.

I can’t access any vimeo stuff on school computers so I hope this is the right routine.

To me, it depends on your style of play. If you are in to speed play, pick a song that is very fast and “jumpy”. If you are in to “smooth” play, pick a song that flows really well.
