World Champion Evan Nagao Reveals Master Plan and Talks about STOLEN TRICKS.

The most important thing in yoyoing is the people you meet. You can swing this object around all you want, but without people, as Chuck might say, you’re just playing catch with yourself. Charles is co-founder of A-RT and trick innovator of the year. A-RT has been putting out amazing content recently, you should check out their YouTube channel, and watch the video with Sunshine Jimmy if you haven’t already, as a lot of this conversation is Bergy’s unnecessarily deep analysis of that video. Enjoy this episode featuring a legend.
