    Jensen's 2011 Worlds performance will forever be the greatest competition freestyle, precisely because it wasn't a **competition** freestyle.
    A true work of art. We'll probably never see something so elegant on the stage again because it doesn't score well (which is a shame).

    These are all from 2012-2015, but I feel like we owe so much to the yoyo renaissance around 1997-2001. I feel like an old, old man, but 23 years later I still remember Alex Garcia's 1998 Nationals freestyle causing the yoyo world to collectively fold inside out to the beat of the...Dutch Eurodance group "Doop"? 4A was in its infancy, 5A was still a twinkle in Steve Brown's tattooed eyes, and Greg Cohen's Infinite Illusions was the most popular yoyo store at yoyoguy.com. "Unresponsive" was what we called a first-generation Cherry Bomb whose cheap plastic had its starbursts worn off, before throwing it in the trash.

    My personal favorite gentry freestyle has to be the 2015 nationals one, but i do agree that the 2014 worlds performance is much more iconic and innovative

    Shu Takadas and gentry steins routines are definetly my favorites, though i would say Shu takes the win for me by a little bit. That dance is just golden

  • @edn6671
    @edn6671 4 года назад

    I think that Christopher Chia's 2011 AP win and Marcus Koh's 2011 worlds win should have definitely been in here tbh. Chris just absolutely nailed it and the whole performance was iconic, and Marcus switched 3 times and still came first, not to mention his completely unique set of tricks.
    Would love to see an updated version of this video in a few years time, there's been some amazing routines recently :)

    One freestyle that I think should have made this list is Anthony Rojas' 2015 worlds routine. Every single one of his tricks was perfectly in line with the music and his horizontal tricks are extremely risky and creative.

  • @patrickroncoski5706
    @patrickroncoski5706 6 лет назад

    Three of the five freestyles are from WYYC 2015... I still think that WYYC 2016 Gentry's routine, despite not winning, is his most engaging freestyle to date, even better than 2014 when it comes to performance. I would like to see Evan Nagao 2015 US Nationals, Ethan Cheung WYYC 2017 and mostly Paul Kerbel 2014 EYYC Open. But I really enjoyed the fact that every category was present in this list!
