Now for the truth.
Be better than everyone else. That's it.
Nope That's because josh DEFINITELY know EVERYTHING! He's a world champ in a land no one can really understand, his mind. He's just giving us great advice. You know what I'd honestly like to see from Jayyo: I've been watching his contest videos, and yes, he's good, but he's not great, at least that's what his scores say. I think this is because he's refusing to focus on any ONE style. On one hand, I truly applaud this decision. What he's subliminally saying is that "yes, I'm good". I don't see too many people trying to do what he does the way he's trying to do it. I also thing Jayyo has certainly paid his dues and I'd like to see him actually walk away doing better, but that means focusing on maybe one style and routine and just practice to sterile perfection. I'd like to see Jayyo take home a real major award before his time passes. Even better, I'd like to see him take some major awards in every style. Of course, that would most likely inflate his ego into out of control proportions, but hey, there's a risk with everything. But I'm sure if he were to choose to focus on a style per year, he's gonna be a real threat to the top level competitors.

Once you stop caring about who wins, yoyoing makes a lot more sense.

Now now, everybody knows that it's all about winning worlds, cause then there are about 33 losers, which you get to rub in the glory you just earned for nine months in all of their faces...Second place is still first loser, sorry...And ninth place is eighth loser...Poor Jensen...lol. But seriously, I think it takes skill to still win it, not just "Swag" (I'll scrape my tongue off later). I mean, look at Jens-oh wait, never mind. lol

He took seventh at Worlds and fifth at Nats, I'd say that's pretty darn good... As for his ego... Outside of the forums, he's nothing like this, it's virtually non-existant...

The secret to winning a yo-yo contest: don't try. and have fun out there. That way, you won what could possibly be the best day of your life.

Carl: I don't see any of this as trolling. This thread is valid, and seems in no way meant to incite argument.
ccn411: Saying you don't have to try in order to win is beyond silly. Winning and fun is different. I prefer the pursuit of fun over winning any day, though.

Now for the truth.
This isn't the music industry, where talent isn't even necessary anymore. Just auto-tune and move on.
That's one of the most ignorant things I've ever heard in my entire life. This is your friendly, neighborhood graduate music major, signing out...

Can't auto-tune a trick.
Debatable.
