Hello everyone, I did some research about which yoyos were used to compete in the 1A finals of this year’s worlds. This list starts from 1st, ending at 22nd
Mir Kim - Miracle 4
Jakub Dolejs - Noir Trois
Hunter Feuerstein - Starlight +
Thomas Rajan - Olympus
James Heder - Olympus
Donghun Nam - ADHD
Ryuichi Nakamura - YYR Prototype (Looks like a wider Upheaval Expansion +)
I don’t believe Remy’s yo-yo was either the Lucida or the Obscura. He’s been teasing on Instagram that he used some new yo-yo and you can see in some of the photos of his routine that the yo-yo has a portion of the SS rim exposed from the plastic on the profile which neither the Lucida nor Obscura have.
Also, Marc and Kris used different yoyos from each other based again on photos from the event. I’m guessing sigs for each of them. One of them might have been the Transcendence though (is this Marc’s upcoming Sig? Don’t suppose anyone knows its specs?).
I also believe that D’Angelo was using the Halcyon Soar based on photos where there looks to be a bimetal rim on his yo-yo.
Yunfan Yang was an upcoming sig from Leet but idk the name or specs.
Glad someone else had the thought that Ryuichi’s yo-yo looked too wide to be the current Upheaval. I was wondering if my eyes were playing tricks on me
Here are photos of their finals routines from the WYYC insta account. You can see the yoyos are different. Strange that Kris was labelled as using the Transcendence on the YT vid.
