I don’t know about you, but i’m always curious about the skills of the men behind the yoyos, so i was extremely excited to see that Chris Mikulin, the man behind Caribou Lodge, had made a clip video.

I think it’s great to see so much influence from CLYW’s pro team players in Chris’ play, it shows he’s a genuine fan of the players he chooses to sponsor.

Begs the question, who would win a throwdown between all the yo-yo manufacturers?

New video from Alex Berenguel. Always great to see some new stuff from Alex as he’s a player that lives outside the public eye a lot of the time. Especially loving the Black Helicopter.

Check it out!

So as i alluded to earlier, CLYW have just added two new members to their team. Now that the CLYW blog has officially released their identities, please join me in welcoming Abe Ziaimehr and John-Bot to the CLYW Pro Team.

….or at least chatter on facebook, twitter and the yoyo community tells me, that CLYW have just signed up two new players to their Pro team.

Any guesses?

What if i told you they were two of the most creative and fun to watch players around right now? What if i also told you they quite often come as a pair? Would that help?

I’ll let Chris make the official announcement as i wouldn’t want to step on his toes, so keep your eyes peeled on the Forums and the CaribouBlog for full details.
