Yoyo as a competition/SPIN stAr

Many people may have played, or at least seen yo-yo as a child. But very few people might imagine yo-yo being a part of performance, let alone a world competition.

Members of SPIN stAr, Rei,TOMMY,and SOUL are all world champions, and getting to look at all three members perform would be a must see show!

The performance vary from high speed dynamic show, or a more elegant version, harmonizing with background music. Both of the performances are unique and very enjoyable. 

SPIN stAr members come from different backgrounds, some have even experienced being actors.

The reason they started performing yoyo was when yoyo became a popular in Japan, they felt the potential of yoyo being a performance or a competition. They would feel great joy when the audience would have interest in yoyo and even engage in performance.
