Gary Longoria shows us the REAL Sea Sick!
Hello All!
I’ve personally had a few discussions back and forth with some talented yo-yo players regarding differences between the “modern” Sea Sick (more of an Up and Down motion), and the “original” Sea Sick (more of an “L-shaped” motion).
Well, we’ve had an opportunity to catch up Gary Longoria (at BAC), one of the most influential players of “new-school” yo-yo play, as well as the inventor of Sea Sick.
Here’s HIS (the original) rendition of Sea Sick:
Impressive, eh? I still can’t get my Sea Sick to look like this…soon enough, I guess.
Thanks again, Gary!
(Note, that was my X-Yo Xcalibur Gary was using, with some pretty worn out pads…hence the binding problems!)

Just beautiful. Absolutely beautiful.
