I was born and raised in Hamamatsu
Currently working mainly in Hamamatsu as a competitor’s yo-yo player
Today I would like to tell you how I won the second prize at the Asian Games
Firstly my encounter with yo was Spring of elementary school fifth grader
It happened that my friend brought a yo-yo when playing in the park
The first time I saw the yo-yo
Huh? What’s going on?
It was enough as a trigger to start yo-yo for me at the time
We started yo yo for everyone who was there immediately
Everyone practicing techniques at first
I was playing yo-yos by competing for who spends the longest
About a month or so
Everyone got tired of yo-yo and started playing soccer
At the time I was not good at exercise only I continued yo
The first time I went to the tournament was my 2nd year since I started yo
It was when a big yo-yo tournament was held at Hamamatsu
The first tournament in my life I challenged practicing everyday from the week before the convention
The result is 51th out of 57 people
I was shocked very much.
But at that time I was wondering what was wrong
I did not even think about it
Because I did not feel the possibility of my yo-yo
My skill was not equipped with originality
After that, the rankings gradually rose at the convention
The technique to do is not changed at all when it first appeared in the tournament
I’m boring with the same skill all the years
I felt that way
At that time I was among the five yo-yos divisions
I decided to challenge the off string string category
The off string is the department where the cord and the yo-yo are separated
You do not understand the reason, do you?
But the technique dispatched from that state is dynamic and more risky than any department
I was attracted to such a place
But when you actually try, you make a mistake and the yo-yo will roll
It will be broken if dropped many times
I seemed to give up again and again
In those cases that supported me
It was the presence of a senior who is doing the same off string on the main
I want to exceed him.
With that one I practiced desperately desperately
Now I am pretty much in the competition to be with him
(Lol)
After a while starting off stringing yo
There was something absolutely indispensable in myself as much as this
It’s difficulty and originality
A difficult technique that no one will do
If you can definitely decide on the stage absolutely cool
I think the technique to put in acting thought so
I tried to omit skills and general skills that people were doing as much as possible
In the beginning I was just putting in the act I wanted to do
I can not show the technique I want to show because I can not decide at the convention many mistakes
Such a state was continued
This is it! I thought I thought
Results of thinking
It’s pretty simple but I increased the amount of practice
I will do techniques I can not do until I can
Withdraw from performance if not able to do
And I practiced 3 hours after school
3 weeks before the event
1 month ago
Results after 1 month and a half ago
Until last year I was preliminary at the national competition
This year I finished 3rd in the final
And at the Asian Games I got the result of second place winning
But I did not get the biggest result yet
What you have come to vaguely
Since I got here so far when I got to lazy
Next to make it the world’s best dream
I think I will try my best even more lazily
And this yo-yo encountered yo-yo changed seven years
Because I do not want to waste this seven years absolutely
I am planning to do performers now at yo-yo
I think that it is the first step to professional performers
Now I am here
I am standing on the stage of TEDx Hamamatsu
And since I’m a performer
I am going to perform from now on
I would like to introduce the yo-yo that I use today
It is this common yo-yo that I use today
Perhaps everyone sees it is not a general shape though
This is the most popular yo-yo now
This and I off string which I currently participate in the convention
It will be the performance using these two kinds of yo
While paying attention to the difference between the movements of the two types of yo
Please look
