Only one possible place to start, a huge thank you and congratulations to Korda, Sheda the Czech Yo-Yo association and everyone involved with the running of the event for an absolutely immaculate contest. I don’t know what the plans are for the future of the contest, but if it doesn’t go on tour I, for one, would be happy to return to Prague year on year.

So, the contest! First of all, i have to talk about Vashek Kroutil and his 1A winning performance. I was totally shocked to see the level of adoration and hype that Vashek generates in his home country as well as the rock star he transforms into when he takes the stage. Off stage, he’s a pretty quiet, super nice guy, on stage he undergoes an instant metamorphosis. He owned the stage from start to finish and i can’t say enough good things about his performance.
