You’ve been yoyoing for quite some time now, and have become pretty good with your yo-yo skills. For the past few months, you’ve been toying with idea of creating your own freestyle…YES, it’s time to take it up with the big boys!!!

So how does one create an awesome freestyle??? Freestyles aren’t just a combination of good music and a bunch of yo-yo tricks…a good freestyle takes time and planning, and of course, LOTS of practice.

Generally there are two types of freestyles: Performance & Competition

I can go on all day about how a Performance and Competition freestyle can be worlds apart from each other, as well as how they can be the exact same thing, but it’s just too complicated a topic to discuss.

Instead, today we shall take a look at the basic building blocks of a Competition freestyle, and hopefully from there, you will be able to get started with planning and creating your perfect freestyle, just in time for WCC and maybe even AP!!!!!!
