Man this takes me back. I remember when I stopped yoyoing for a while this guy was the last person I had watched. It's been a year now. It's really amazing to see how far he has gotten. I'm now motivated more than ever to try and get to speed with all the professionals
The Brandon Vu lmao no that’s just a trick I made up in February this year, it’s a no-risk triangle suicide. It’s not an actual green triangle, it’s a different mount that looks exactly like a green triangle suicide but if you miss it doesn’t knot.
Took me back to the late 70's/early 80's when me and my older Brother were learning to YoYo. Same music playing too (HaHa)... YoYo, Rubik,Chess,Ping Pong (and even Hula-Hoop) were all the craze !!! Not only Insanely fun (and so hard at first to learn) But Incredibly fun to watch !!! Gotta pretty cool bit for you if you're interested. It would take alot of work, but you're no stranger to that.....
Just saw this on Reddit and it's very impressive! Some of those moves are lightning fast! Also, you were very cool under pressure. The tangle seems like no big deal. Great showmanship!
One thing I realised is that whenever US gets the world title, it's always the japanese that gets 2nd and 3rd, and this is evident as seen in worlds 2014,2015 and 2018
I did this same exact routine in my bedroom once on my 3rd day of a methamphetamine binge. Then I couldn't find my yo-yo because I've never owned one. Thing that make you go hum.
To the ppl saying they don't understand y evan is number 1 it's cause evan said in his rocket man freestyle in the desc he said that he only focused on the points
This is super cool. Could we possibly run this video on Metro.co.uk and its social media channels? With credit and links back to Evan and the competition? This is mesmerising - thanks!

I'm a huge fan. The wEDGE and EDGE are my favourites. Most of my tricks are inspired by you.
Evan Nagao This is the best comment anywhere on the internet, period.
Congratulations

Jacob Evan yeah 😅

phillip defranco sent me
All around youtube yoyo videos I always see him commenting on them and probably learning from them. He definitely deserved this years worlds title
Man this takes me back. I remember when I stopped yoyoing for a while this guy was the last person I had watched. It's been a year now. It's really amazing to see how far he has gotten. I'm now motivated more than ever to try and get to speed with all the professionals
same, i will always remember him as the dude who rolled on the floor at the U.S. nationals
The 4y old boy on Jay Leno too
CONGRATS EVAN!
I believed that you would win Nationals and you did! I was really hoping you win the world and you did it again! CONGRATS MAN!
"I LOVE YOU"
"I LOVE YOU TOO"
"I wanna be a Yo Yo Man!" he cried, "Make me a Yo Yo Man!"
But the Yo Yo Master did not answer. He just kept on Yoing.
He said "Iloveyoutoo" tho?😂
Yo do me yoyo master, I want you to do it because your the yoyo guy
This routine made me smile the entire time I watched it. Truly a great performance and a great routine. Congrats.
Gentry
Zach
Now Evan , welcome to the dream team
Hamad Ahmad n8 ta gr8 next
I'm waiting for Keiran cooper
Never has a yo-yo performance almost bring tears to my eyes.. Until now. Well deserved #inspirstional
Rumor has it, there is a footlong sandwich and a full head of lettuce in his stomach
Anthony Throws *BURGER KING FOOT LETTUCE*
Idk why but watching this video makes me feel glad. Its just good for him, his passion can be felt trough the video.
Bruh... 2:49 , if that aint divine intervention idk what is.
You mean the Fact he snapped his fingers and the Knot dissappeared Nagao is God

Owen Ekblad Fake GT suicide?
Luke Franse yes sir! The idea is to fake the judges into thinking it’s a real triangle, when in reality there’s absolutely no risk involved.
Owen Ekblad exposed
Thank you reddit.
piss off
Yo whats up dude
Wtf you everywhere....even in minor hobby that rarely founded(sorry freakin bad english)
what the FUCK Justin
Justin Y. What’s your profile pic cause I feel like I see it every where
For the next 15 years WYYC will need to have drug test...

@@tjgdjmkpdawugmpwtab the fuck Does that mean
I've never watched a yo yo video before. But watching his happiness at the end made me completely get it.
Watching the whole thing at 0.25 speed is the correct way.
I was there at Worlds. I was in the audience and saw this awesome freestyle
This gave me motivation to start yoyoing again
Thank you, Phil, for showing me that yoyo is still cool in 2018!
The riskiest freestyle I’ve ever seen.
I've never been so amazed by a cylinder on a string before, you keep doing you man, keep doing you!
Was sent here by Philip DeFranco! Thumbs up if you're a beautiful bastard too!
When the main character started his freestyle
Crowd is unbelievably hype. Well deserved!
Most humble guy in the community, so happy for you Evan :)
This is the most enthusiastic crowd I've ever heard.
Ya Evan your the man i can not believe it you win the world yo yo contest , you are favorite yo yo players i got to say you did Evan good job

Evan is the Keanu Reeves of the yoyo community
Well both are Hawaiians
When i heard the song freebird i knew i was in for some speed
Just saw this on Reddit and it's very impressive! Some of those moves are lightning fast! Also, you were very cool under pressure. The tangle seems like no big deal. Great showmanship!
It's so smoothing watching him doing it so effortlessly
One thing I realised is that whenever US gets the world title, it's always the japanese that gets 2nd and 3rd, and this is evident as seen in worlds 2014,2015 and 2018
Man that's a hard song to do a routine to! Mad respect! One day I'll be there with you I just know it!
Nice job Evan!
Way to go kid. Your enthusiam is inspirational.
He is 45 years old.
@@HellenicBM bruh wtf lmao
I did this same exact routine in my bedroom once on my 3rd day of a methamphetamine binge. Then I couldn't find my yo-yo because I've never owned one. Thing that make you go hum.
Although this brought him his world champ title, I still think his 2018 US performance tad better. It feels like he was going all out on that one
He was also going all out on this one, he was just sick.
This is by far the best song with the best gitar solo, great music choise.
Thank you Phil, you made us see the truth with Yoyos that are free as birds. You can't change this PhillyD!
How is this not an Olympic sport yet?!?!
DAMN. Never thought a yoyo coukld make me cry!
To the ppl saying they don't understand y evan is number 1 it's cause evan said in his rocket man freestyle in the desc he said that he only focused on the points
I wasn't expecting to hear free bird here
Perfect song choice, it’s like a rock concert!
You looked so happy and proud of yourself at the end! Gave me goosebumps!!
A true master of the Yoyo
Thank you Phily D for this. Your secret links rarely disappoints
SO COOOOOOOL
Oh my god Such a good routine
Another viral video in the process
Deserved. Dudes been throwing for so long. Congrats dawgie.
Evan I always thought u were the GOAT man!
Thanks Phil
amazing vid worth the watch, and a classic song in the bg.
Thanks, Philip DeFranco!
anyone else sad that the audio is gone?
ye
thank you phil. i didn't know it got this crazy
I was here before this video had millions of views.
0:30 someone said i love you
Excellent song choice, amigo!
I've never seen so much hype around a yoyo before lol
world champion 2018 evan! yyf! just announced
Funny thing is that there is no Hawaii in BG map(where the logo and sponsors are shown) but a *legend* from Hawaii wins
Thanks Philly D
evans tricks are crazy
Wow, people are really into this stuff
YESSSSS IT'S BACK!!!
Wow, I didn't know stuff like this was even possible!Philly D sent me here.
I can't even get the yoyo to come back up.
That's amazing! Fantastic!
It's back!!
If I was as skilled at anything as this dude is at yo-yo, I’d be okay with my life.
This is super cool. Could we possibly run this video on Metro.co.uk and its social media channels? With credit and links back to Evan and the competition? This is mesmerising - thanks!

My headphone cord tied itself into a knot while watching this.
I love u Evan!!!
Congratulations bro, you deserve it!! Amazing routine man, keep it up!! 😉
The Hajime Miura of 1a. When did Evan become such a Handsome dude, good looking and Electrifying Performance!!
Steve Loewen he always been mr steal yo girl

Now do all of that with 2 Yoyos
And I thought being able to do 'walk the dog' was impressive...
About time Evan wins

Can't believe you're done competing.
He's got that YoYo down pat, now all he needs is a Pineapple to give Katia Managan a run for her money!
So...when's the anime for yo-yo competition
