Watch: Man Wins Yo-yo World Championships With Awesome "Freebird" Routine

Videos Yo Yo Evan Nagao World Yoyo Contest Freebird about 6 years agoby Mick Joest

We like to take a look at what's going on in the fringe Geek circles from time to time, and our latest dive into the niche world of yoyo-ing unearthed something truly incredible. Hawaii yo yo legend Evan Nagao finally became the World Yoyo Contest champion, and he did it all while rocking out to Lynyrd Sknynrd. If you're even thinking of jumping to the comments to profess this as lame, you really need to watch the video first. I'm convinced just about anything is awesome if you pair it with "Freebird," and this might just prove my point!:

I started out as a loyal reader of Geektyrant before emailing Joey one day about the potential of writing for Geektyrant. Now six years later I'm the managing editor of Gametyrant.com and still living the dream and giving my opinion to the geek masses! Geektyrant is my life, and I hope that shows in everything I do!
