During the summer of 2009 I was traveling in northern Cali and stumbled on this awesome little
Yoyo Festival. It turned out it was the ultimate competition, according to Cali.... the World Championships of Yo-Yo.
I hung out for a few hours, shot some video, talked to alot of Yoyo Boys, and these are the best
ones. I selected five "Kings" of the World Yo-Yo Championships in 2009, based on their tricks,
disposition, music, stage presence and over all coolness factor. Of course my choices did not
affect the judges outcome, but for me, these were the guys that knocked the crowd backwards
about 40 yards. The highest accolade when onstage is to hear one of your peers in the audience
voicing ".....WHHAAAAT!..." while you perform. You'll hear a couple of those from time to time
while watching the five Kings I chose. See more fun summertime northern Cali hotspots, cool video, photos and stills at:
