On July 26th we held a Japan Yo-Yo Tour stop at Keihoku Hall in Kashiwa, Chiba Prefecture.<\/p>\n

The venue was close to Kashiwa Station. On that day there was a big festival going on around the Kashiwa Station area and the roads were blocked, so it was difficult to get to the venue.<\/p>\n

People came not just from Chiba, but also Saitama, Tokyo, Kanagawa and further to participate in the event.<\/p>\n

The 10-Second Sleeper Contest!<\/p>\n

Despite (or maybe because of?) the contest’s simple premise, people got pretty fired up about it!<\/p>\n

The final match of the Forward Pass Speed Challenge. In the picture, they’re just about to start.<\/p>\n

Same as the 10-Second Sleeper, it is a simple and easy to understand contest, so a lot of people joined in.<\/p>\n

Team C3yoyodesign, Shinya Kido<\/p>\n

\"blog20141003-06\"<\/p>\n

Duncan Crew (and new US 4A National Champion!!!), Zac Rubino!<\/p>\n

The stage was very small so it should have been difficult to do off string, but Zac pulled it off with no problems.<\/p>\n

\"blog20141003-07\"<\/p>\n

Team YoYoFactory, Gentry Stein<\/p>\n

Gentry, taller than the rest of us, looked like he might hit the low ceiling, but he still put on a very intense performance for the audience.<\/p>\n

Other than Shinya, Zac and Gentry, players representing companies that sponsored our Japan Tour also took the stage!<\/p>\n

\"blog20141003-03\"<\/p>\n

Team YoYoJam, Toshiaki Onuma<\/p>\n

He used YoYoJam’s Unleashed<\/a> to do a great 2A freestyle.<\/p>\n

\"blog20141003-04\"<\/p>\n

Werrd Alliance Member, Ryosuke Ito<\/p>\n

He did his main style 3A, as well as 4A.<\/p>\n

Team YoYoFactory, Kento Noda<\/p>\n

A local from Chiba Prefecture, Kento is one of YoYoFactory’s younger team members.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Personally, I have been to Kashiwa several times, but coming with the tour was my first visit in a while so I was glad to come again.<\/p>\n

Thank you to everyone who came to our tour stop in Kashiwa!<\/p>\n
