Diet Dew Commercial Features Yo-Yo Greats

Modern yo-yo greats Paul Yath and Patrick Mitchell are featured in Mountain Dew’s newest commercial. They’re caught showing off the darker side of the yo-yo business where yo-yos are weapons and players are hitmen.

Looks like Paul’s using the original black Milk by Born Crucial.

Congrats on your acting debut, guys!

    Cool, and funny… But I thought that yo-yo’s being weapons was disproven along time ago.

    The commercial is SICK. So cool for Paul and Patrick.

    But now we have to go through all that “you know the yo-yo was invented as a weapon” crap again.

    I Agree, The Comercial is great, and that case is sick. I want one…….. Can anyone name all the yo-yo’s in the case?
    I love the comercial,but now I am worried that schools will claim that they are weapons, and parents will pull the kids out of my yo-yo class…

    [...] in our previous post, they’ve also just put up a newradio interview with Pat, sampling the Mountain Dew commercial featuring Paul Yath and Patrick Mitchell, as well as shouting out JonRob’s stepped-up game. [...]

    Actually, these guys did an incredible fight scene with the yoyo, better than the mountain dew commercial. They use the string to choke and the middle axle to block stuff. It looks like they’re actually using some unknown yoyo martial art.
