What: Spinworkx Challenge

Time: 5pm - 6pm

Who: Absolutely anybody can take part
The Spinworkx Challenge was conceived back in 2010/2011 to much notoriety and many Spinners in Singapore absolutely dreaded it. Looking at the list of tricks to perform, it may look easy and a breeze to most. But under pressure, many players tend to crack and get nervous, and start making those little itty-bitty mistakes. Do you think you have got what it takes, come on and show us what you got!
Players who have completed the Spinworkx Challenge up to Intermediate 2 are:
1) Hans Wong-Jensen
2) Peh Li Hao
Think you can do better than them, register and come on down to beat the Challenge!

Take note! For SHOWCASE Vol.3, the rules are NO LONGER based on Technical Execution like Vol.1 and Vol.2. For this round, Spinners will be judged based on Technical EVALUATION and Performance EVALUATION, and will be scored accordingly by the judges. We have noticed that many players have great technical routines, but keep losing out to other players at contests and the reason for this is due to their lower Evaluation scores.
For SHOWCASE Vol.3, we want players to focus on fine-tuning their Evaluation scores for the up-coming Asia Pacific Yo-Yo Championships 2014 and Singapore Yo-Yo Championships 2014.
We are excited to see everyone come together and throwdown without the added pressure of needing a 'seed' or attaining a high rank. At SHOWCASE, Spinners will be able to show-off their banging tricks, mind-boggling combos and essentially get to do showcase all that they've got.
Once agin, we are requesting for community-based volunteers to judge at the event. This benefits the volunteers as they get to learn how to judge AND they get to learn how to improve on their own freestyles by understanding how freestyles are clicked and scored. (If you wish to volunteer as a judge, fill in the registration form as well). Don't worry, we will also have experienced judges judging alongside.
For all who are taking part at SHOWCASE, do note that all Freestyles at the event are 2 minutes long, instead of the usual 1 minute or 3 minutes.
Sign up for both the Spinworkx Challenge & SHOWCASE today!
