Gentry is too modest to admit this but I’ll go on the record saying - there is no chance I would have been on that World’s Final stage without Gentry's help. I’ve been a competitive Yoyoer since 2011, my desire to be a better player has always been there, but it wasn’t until I started talking to Gentry that I began to reinvent myself. Gentry is one of the only examples of a Yoyo player who understands the craft of competitive Yoyoing so masterfully, that he is able to rebuild his competitive style on 3 different occasions (2011, 2014, 2018). And can then give others the framework to do the same. Gentry didn’t just give me a few pointers, he patiently gave away more than a decade's worth of hard-fought wisdom to help me on my own journey. Although I’m sad we won’t get to see another new Gentry Stein world’s routine, his impact on the Yoyo world as a source of competitive and creative inspiration and now as a teacher will continue to remain. Great video Gentry! And congratulations to Mir for taking the title with dominance. I'm super excited to see the future of Yoyoing in the next few years.
I want to also say that ryuichis routine blew my mind just as much as mir's. That choreography and construction really makes up for the lack of insanity (in comparison to Mir 😂). He definitely has that gift like Gentry when it comes to perfectly constructing a routine.
I think that Mir has got the best part of all of the greats in one performance Speed, slack, Zontal, Hooks, btb Zontal, techy combos, body tricks, stage use, musicality, stage presence and some of the most creative tricks ever and he hits it all perfectly! We have entered the Mir Kim era of dominance now 🔥
Mir Kim It’s so good that he has potential to never lose again his skill is above everyone else so much that it’s almost disturbing it takes a real yo-yo player to see what he does but it is unmatched his routine makes me emotional every time I have seen it that’s how powerful it is
The transitions from slack tricks to horizontal and back to slack were insane. That DNA was the most beautiful one I've ever seen performed on a stage. Absolutely flawless performance.
oh are you the "THE YOYO CHANGES EACHTIME" guy? why no more videos... I almost felt we were back to entertainment, cuz you make most entertaining yoyo content
Thanks so much man. I’m so happy by the end of the finals I was able to get over not competing and just enjoy. Ryuichi was incredible. So much effort put into the presentation from all angles. I still can’t get over that behind the head bind. The way he presented the catch, the pose, the timing to the music, the way it was integrated into the construction of the routine, the speed combo that kept the energy high after… masterful construction. You don’t see it often. I was stoked.
It was great to get your reaction and input on this. Mir Kim is picking up your WYYC mantle and he will build on what you have accomplished and continue to accomplish! Great video!
Yoo I have watched you on youtube since your BAC 2010 at Chico.. I can't believed it already 13 years since that moment. At that time I believed that you would be Jensen Kimmit's successor since you have the similar energy on the stage.. Seeing this video, kind of nostalgic how far yoyoing have upgraded.. thank you for all your hardworks for all those wyycs performance to entertain us.. you are a living legend, man..
I just discovered this video now. What a sensational reaction in this video. I like this new insight of documentation for wyyc , please do one for this year
@@Gentrystein and please understand that it's emotional af for your fans also bro. We're around the same age and you was one of the dudes inspiring me to do this when I was younger and you just truly have made a huge impact on competitive yoyoing and your fans bro. In my mind you're one of the few players who truly has figured out how to rock that stage every time you step on it and blow everybody watching away. Your name will be remembered for years bro and seriously please understand that you have impacted so many peoples lives in a positive way with your yoyoing and the content you create. Nothing but respect homie, I really hope you see this. I totally respect your decision although I'm definitely gonna miss seeing you throwing down some of the greatest freestyles that I think will ever come out of the yoyo world.
Gentry this video is truly a masterpiece. From the buildup of the story, what emotions you were going through. How you truly had genuine love for everyone who competed but wont scared to be honest on your criticisms. THIS BY FAR MY FAVORITE VIDEO YOU MADE. WELL DONE!!!
@@Gentrystein I've been trying to learn all sort of tricks, mostly GT, wrist mount and hooks of the 1.5 kind. I've even tried to learn your speed combo, which looks the coolest since it really looks technical than the others I've seen.
Dude its so cool seeing a former world champion react to other players routines. Id love to see you react to some other divisions next time gentry. Maybe worlds 2024?!
When i saw Mir's performance, i was just absolutely mind blown..This routine will enter the history books, and even in 10 years people will remember this.
Fantastic video and loved the narrative. Reliving those routines and the glory of worlds through your perspective was not something I realized I needed in my life. ❤😅
No reason to feel sad for him. Brandon is CRUSHING it with everything he is doing. Dudes just at the beginning of his competitive journey. He’s got a lot more he’ll be bringing to the table and I’m ready for it.
the thing is that though gentry cant say I'm the CURRENT world champ, we all know.. just how crazy he is, like all the battle videos.. challenges and all.. he does his trick with style and accuracy, thats what makes gentry GENTRY STEIN. for sure new people are flawless , but gentry is like the guy who really helped this sport to get popular and flashy.... and of course THE DNA 🧬🧬🧬🧬
you're intuition isnt wrong... you also did call this like 8-9 months prior in one of you previous videos..... you're on the pulse of this yoyo thing dog. kudos.
That really means a lot. For a long time I’ve felt like the thing I’m best at is making routines. I’m still a noob when it comes to making TH-cam videos, but I’m going to keep at it and keep getting better.
I didn’t make him get into finals. I just helped support him. This accomplishment was all him! I hope one day he reaches his goal of becoming world champion.

Love you bro ❤️🙏🏽

Brandon I wanna click like but it has 69 likes and I won't be the person to wreck it... so consider this a thumbs up.
I want to also say that ryuichis routine blew my mind just as much as mir's. That choreography and construction really makes up for the lack of insanity (in comparison to Mir 😂). He definitely has that gift like Gentry when it comes to perfectly constructing a routine.
Ryuichi Nakamura is definitely an unsung hero of 2023 WYYC. I wouldn't be surprised if he takes the title next year.
I think that Mir has got the best part of all of the greats in one performance Speed, slack, Zontal, Hooks, btb Zontal, techy combos, body tricks, stage use, musicality, stage presence and some of the most creative tricks ever and he hits it all perfectly! We have entered the Mir Kim era of dominance now 🔥
That is why he got a 5 in trick diversity
Mir Kim It’s so good that he has potential to never lose again his skill is above everyone else so much that it’s almost disturbing it takes a real yo-yo player to see what he does but it is unmatched his routine makes me emotional every time I have seen it that’s how powerful it is
@user-eh4hx6it5l I know I was there. Never seen anything like it
Ryuichi Nakamura has a shot to be 1A world champ.
The transitions from slack tricks to horizontal and back to slack were insane. That DNA was the most beautiful one I've ever seen performed on a stage. Absolutely flawless performance.
Yah dude nailed it. I’m not sure if there’s ever been a 1a routine with this few mistakes before.
Only a minute in and that sequence of you on the worlds stage every year is crazy
Much love Lucas 🙏🏽
❤❤
oh are you the "THE YOYO CHANGES EACHTIME" guy? why no more videos... I almost felt we were back to entertainment, cuz you make most entertaining yoyo content
Love the concept and execution of this whole video! Your reaction to Ryuichi’s freestyle made my day, and the end made me tear up.
Thanks so much man. I’m so happy by the end of the finals I was able to get over not competing and just enjoy. Ryuichi was incredible. So much effort put into the presentation from all angles. I still can’t get over that behind the head bind.

All love. Thanks for the support. I can’t wait to see worlds 2024. Will you be attending?
@@Gentrystein I'm hoping to try to be there!

Everytime when gentry talks about not competing anymore it always sound so emotional
I’m just being real. It’s emotional AF for me.
@@Gentrystein and please understand that it's emotional af for your fans also bro.

This was like sitting next to you at the event. Your honest excitement is infectious. It amplifies the whole experience. Thumbs all the way up.
this is one of the best yoyo content pieces ever made
My dude ❤️🙏🏽
So glad you realised hayato Itani, his style out of the blue straight up energises you
Dude, this is so much more than yoyo at this point. This is a dance, and a breathtaking one too! Man that was dope!
I love how excited Evan is for Mir at the end there.
Gentry this video is truly a masterpiece. From the buildup of the story, what emotions you were going through. How you truly had genuine love for everyone who competed but wont scared to be honest on your criticisms. THIS BY FAR MY FAVORITE VIDEO YOU MADE. WELL DONE!!!
I'm glad to see you still yoyoing even without competing! Mir Kim will start a new yoyo era for sure 🔥🔥
Of course. Not competing gives me the chance to be even more involved in the scene.
As someone who's been struggling to get better at their own yoyoing ability, this sure gave me the motivation to keep pushing forward. Thanks Gentry.
Love to hear it! What tricks are you currently working on?
@@Gentrystein I've been trying to learn all sort of tricks, mostly GT, wrist mount and hooks of the 1.5 kind. I've even tried to learn your speed combo, which looks the coolest since it really looks technical than the others I've seen.
This was emotional for me. I could see the emotions in your face as well. Literally almost crying of joy
Dude its so cool seeing a former world champion react to other players routines. Id love to see you react to some other divisions next time gentry. Maybe worlds 2024?!
Mir Kim's routine was one of the greatest I've ever seen!! Wow! JUST WOW!!!
Such a fun watch, thanks for featuring me 😊
You crushed it up there dude
How do you create another yoyo boom?
Working on it
Kudos for the effort in filtering out all the curse words Evan must have said within range of your mic during Mir's routine.
Man as legendary is Gentry is, Mir Kim had the chills going down my spine. Maybe your best video yet. 👌👌👌
Happy to hear you enjoyed it. What was your favorite freestyle moment?
I loved how well Mir’s music was matched to his routine. However, the best part was probably his 6.5 or 7.0 hook. I lost track of the whips😂
When i saw Mir's performance, i was just absolutely mind blown..This routine will enter the history books, and even in 10 years people will remember this.
I agree! What was your favorite part of his routine?
Gentry i contributed to your yoyo boom i got about 200 people from my school into yoyoing
Mir Kim and his sister's routine was absolutely astounding.
Great video gentry! Loved how you documented this transition for you 👍👍
Thanks for watching. Happy to hear you enjoyed it. More coming soon!
I’d love to see you compete next year !
I think I’m going to watch the nationals for the first time!
The fact that mir is just flopping around on the stage, we all can agree he was having so much fun landing every tricks with speed and elegance.
Even and angel just in the background
What yoyo do you all use brand wise model wise in the tournament
Great perspective on such a huge moment in competitive yoyo history
I appreciate it man! This really was a special moment. I can’t wait to see where competitive yoyoing goes from here.
Fantastic video and loved the narrative. Reliving those routines and the glory of worlds through your perspective was not something I realized I needed in my life. ❤😅
That means a lot. Thanks so much 🥹
Its hard to believe that - at some point in the future - someone will even surpass Mir.....yoyoing has hit another level this year
I watched this at work on my lunch break and almost started clapping after that last routine! wow....
The one guy in the background with his jaw dropped 😂
Rightfully!
The Wolfey Glick of YoYo. That’s the world champ difference baby.
awesome video format, love this
Thanks Becko ❤️
Why dislike this?? This video is cool. Bruh
Broo I feel very sad for Brandon he puts his every thing on it but actually he deserves to be the champion 😢❤
Well his routine simply wasn't as good as at least 5 other competitors this year. Unfortunately, but it is what it is
No reason to feel sad for him. Brandon is CRUSHING it with everything he is doing. Dudes just at the beginning of his competitive journey. He’s got a lot more he’ll be bringing to the table and I’m ready for it.
It was awesome seeing you at the Dobson Ranch yoyo club!
Will you make a hybrid shutter?
No plans, but I do have some new exciting stuff coming.
10:45 huh, angel2up was there
Seeing Gentry leave competing is sad, but watching him react to all of these legendary performances is truly inspiring.
🪀❤🪀
Just started yoyoing
Nice! What tricks are you working on?
A another amazing video from Gentry Stein, keep up the hard work!
I appreciate you 🙏🏽
Awesome video! It made me cry!! ❤
Hey wrandon did 360 over the head triangle and missed it snd he did a video about it and gentry filmed it at the same time
when are you gonna post the video you filmed in Tokyo?
I filmed a couple videos in Tokyo. I’ll be releasing weekly uploads throughout the end of the year!
Thx so much@@Gentrystein
Gentry being a good yo ambassador
Thanks Micah 🙏🏽

Thanks for making this video Gentry
As you could see, so was I 🤣
Geinty is the reason I am yo-yoing
Thanks for the love ❤️ what tricks are you working on now?
@@Gentrystein Mock 5
Next yoyo should be called “BLISS” the emotion that comes from yoyo
the thing is that though gentry cant say I'm the CURRENT world champ, we all know.. just how crazy he is, like all the battle videos.. challenges and all.. he does his trick with style and accuracy, thats what makes gentry GENTRY STEIN.
for sure new people are flawless , but gentry is like the guy who really helped this sport to get popular and flashy....
and of course
THE DNA 🧬🧬🧬🧬
Dude's just 15. wth! 😮
Really want to see his routine in his 30's
you're intuition isnt wrong... you also did call this like 8-9 months prior in one of you previous videos..... you're on the pulse of this yoyo thing dog. kudos.
His 2014 one was the most iconic
Excellent video dude!
Thanks! 🙏🏽
You should go reclaim it Gentry! Hahaha Looks like you still want it! hahaha MAKE IT 3! Clevelanddddd this is for youuuuuuu! LOL
gentry can you teach me how to do a btb horizontil
Is it just me or dose that sound like the star wars theme song at 8:13
It is
FINALLY GENTRY WITH ANOTHER BANGER I HAVE BEEN WAITING FOR A NEW UPLOAD IN AGES THANKS BRO ❤
Song name from 8:50 pleaase
Bro big fan of your tricks
I appreciate you 🙏🏽
I'm guessing you've sat on this for a while, you can tell it's emotional but it's great content.
I appreciate you 🙏🏽
Very fun video😎😎
This one was special for me. I hope it can give people a deeper insight into competitive yoyoing.
No debates needed. Mir is the best of the best so far and he will dominate the worlds for the next years to come.
Sick video!
😢 beautiful story
Yo Gentry, Who would You Think would Win Hook Battle Between Aldrin Marapao and Mir Kim
youll always be my world yoyo champion
All love I appreciate you ❤️
Do the Online WYYC champions for 2021 and 2022 not count?
They’re kind of in their own category since the element of messing up/ crowd pressure plays a huge part in Wyyc
gentrys gd at making yoyo routines
even better at making vids
That really means a lot. For a long time I’ve felt like the thing I’m best at is making routines. I’m still a noob when it comes to making TH-cam videos, but I’m going to keep at it and keep getting better.
keep going at it!
Gentry i my best guess for next year
Bro face is intense😅
Lol at 10:30 you can see angel2up like flabbergasted lmao
Ikr😂
I think the point that mir Kim owned the stage is where everybody new he was gonna be a world, Yoyo champion
He truly did own it
We’re was Togo kasuda
wow just wow, im speechless
Do DNA with replay pro
Not showing Evan's routine here is criminal
Gentry stein as a judge at the world yoyo competition 2024?
Probably! We will see. I really enjoyed filming TH-cam videos the whole contest, so that will be my priority next year as well.
Can you Please post all the reactions?
ny brother is helping start the next yoyo boomby yoyoing at school
That’s what’s up! What’s your plan?
if you make brandon the next yoyo camp we will make you hit 1 million subs
I didn’t make him get into finals. I just helped support him. This accomplishment was all him! I hope one day he reaches his goal of becoming world champion.
yes that is what a ment we love you gentry@@Gentrystein
I wish Gentry could mentor me
Awesome
I appreciate you Kevin!
More hooks are so excessively over powered
He’s a legend
Mirs*
One point confused me. I thought there were different "classes", like 1A. So wouldn't there be multiple world champions?
yes, but 1A is the most popular style and the one gentry is the most familiar with
Is that hunter on the stage?
Definitely deserved, what the heck was that!!
Bro You Should Act In Yo Yo Series.... I wanna See Blazing Teens New Yo Yo Series You Must Act In It
THIS VIDEO IS A W
I appreciate you Aldrin 👍🏽
Mir
best content.
Love you Ibs ❤️
