Get Your MUSIC ready (IMPORTANT CHANGE)

Posted by :Dr. Yo-Yo On : February 27, 2013

You guys will be doing us a HUGE solid if you can follow these simple guidelines

  • Burn as song to your CD in CDA format. Here is a link on how to do that.
  • 1 Track per CD
  • Label each CD with your Name, and the Division you are performing in
  • Follow the NYYL Standard for Music (No lyrics of sexual, explicit or graphic nature.  Basically keep it G)

In the example above, John Smith is is competing in 1a and 2a. He has three CD’s, one for 2a, one for 1a Prelims, and one for 1a Finals.

If you are 1a-5a OR Fixed axle, you need to have a CD for each division final.  If you are 1a, you will need a Prelim disc also.

You do not need a CD for the Ladder division

This one is important. KEEP YOUR PRELIM CD’S ON YOU. You will need to hand carry your Prelim CD with your Prelim Voucher to the Prelim room for the Prelims.

Thanks guys.

There you have it. The Final numbers for the 2013 California State Yo-Yo Championship.

Also, I feel that Trophies are an important part of the yo-yo contest. Every year I try to make the trophy more and more epic. I don’t think I will ever surpass this one. Ladies and gentlemen, commissioned by TMBR Toys, I present the California State Yo-Yo Championship 1st place trophy for 1a-5a AND fixed axle.
Yes my friends, it is also a yo-yo.

Thank you to Colin Leland for the hard work and Seth Peterson for the photograph.

See you all at Cal States!

Make sure to watch the Cal State Yo-Yo Facebook page for updates this week.

Championship Division Rules

The general rules for music and stage use apply to all Championship freestyle divisions. Specific considerations for each style of play are toward the bottom of the page.

Music

Each competitor shall have 2-minutes to perform a freestyle routine to his or her choice of music for the freestyle finals, and 1-minute for the prelims (1A only).

The 2-minute (or 1-minute) time period starts when the CD is started by the sound manager.

No points shall be scored for either Technical Execution or Performance Style for any reason before the music starts, or after the 2-minute (or 1-minute time period) have elapsed.

Music shall start from the beginning of the track and shall be played for 2-minutes (1-minute during prelims) where it shall be cut off. Contestants can feel free to edit the music so that it fades out or ends at the appropriate time.

Music that terminates prior to the 2 minute (or 1-minute) time period will be considered to end the freestyle performance unless the competitor notifies the sound manager and contest director prior to the freestyle so the judges may be informed.

All music must be considered G-rated (appropriate for all audiences) and shall not contain offensive lyrics including but not limited to: obscenities, ethnic or sexual slurs, violence advocacy, etc. If you are unsure about your music, a judge will be available to listen to your music and make sure it is appropriate. Music used in many video games, television segments, and other media does not necessarily meet this standard. With the concurrence of the Contest Director and the Head Judge, use of inappropriate music by a competitor shall result in their disqualification.

Please see the Music Guidelines page for more information.

Stage Use

All actions of a competitor must be G-rated (appropriate for all audiences) and take into account the safety of the audience, facility, and the competitor. With the concurrence of the Contest Director and the Head Judge, dangerous or inappropriate behavior by a competitor shall result in their disqualification.

No assistants are allowed on stage while a competitor is performing. All extra yo-yos that are to be used by a competitor shall be ready to use and must be brought on stage, before their freestyle starts on a tray supplied by the Contest. Yo-yos that leave the stage during a freestyle shall not be returned to the stage and no others shall be accepted by the competitor from the audience or an assistant. If a competitor uses a yo-yo in violation of this rule, the judges will not award any points for Technical Execution or Performance Style while that yo-yo is in play, but shall deduct points for any mistakes, loss of control restarts, yo-yo replacements, etc.

No props are allowed on stage or to be used in the competition without the prior approval of the Contest Director and the Head Judge. Hats and glasses are excepted and do not require approval as long as they are not significantly altered. All reasonable requests for props will be considered if they are presented prior to the start of the competition.

Yo-Yos with hub stacks (or similar outside mounted bearings) or rim bearings are allowed in all divisions.

2012 California State Yo-Yo Championship 3a, 4a, 5a Complete

Some exciting news!

Here is the unedited 3a, 4a, and 5a footage from Cal States. I had originally thought this footage was lost in a computer failure last April that killed my editing workstation.  Recently I purchased a USB to SATA adaptor and was going through some external hard drives that had broken for one reason or another.  One of my externals still worked, and low and behold there was the contest footage that had backed up!

1a and 2a are up on youtube already, but here is 3a-5a, unedited, from start to finish!

 

Commentary by Greg Winterrowd and Jamie Kennedy

This year, we will offer the same live stream capability as well as on air color commentary by the YoYoUniversity team Greg Winterrowd and Colin Leland!
