Alti mas!!
Hi, this is Kentaro. This is my first time writing here.
From November 16 to 21, I visited Prague, Czech Republic for the Czech Yo-yo Nationals!
In Prague, the publicity for the Czech Yo-yo Nationals contest was on the subways and in the newspapers. The place itself was awesome. The stage, sound system, and lighting system were great. Also, there were many interesting performances from different areas of yo-yoing. About 300 people (including 65 contestants) showed up to this contest. The players and I were enjoying the contest and hanging out with yo-yo people from all over the world (mostly from Czech, Poland, Slovakia, and Germany). It’s clear that yo-yoing is growing in Czech. It was the one of the best contest I have ever been to.
The contest was not the only good thing about going to the Czech Republic. If you go there in the future, please go sightseeing in the oldest city in Prague! It’s soooooo beautiful and, of course, the food was delicious. It was great experience to be there!
Last, I want to say THANK YOU VERY MUCH to everybody, and especially to Ondra, Korda, Vashek, and his family!
Ahoj!!
Prague is fantastic! I was there in February and I found a couple of shops that carried several quality yo-yo brands: H-Spin, YoYoJam, etc. At one shop, the owner said they even had meets once a week (Unfortunately, I wasn’t staying long enough to go to the meet)
And yes, it’s a very beautiful city that’s worth visiting anyway!
Yes..it was great event….
and Kentaro was BEST!!
