Also thank you to all the fans who support me. You motivate me to keep making epic freestyles. P.S. Takeshi deserved this title just as much as I did.
Man this takes me back. I remember when I stopped yoyoing for a while this guy was the last person I had watched. It's been a year now. It's really amazing to see how far he has gotten. I'm now motivated more than ever to try and get to speed with all the professionals
The Brandon Vu lmao no that’s just a trick I made up in February this year, it’s a no-risk triangle suicide. It’s not an actual green triangle, it’s a different mount that looks exactly like a green triangle suicide but if you miss it doesn’t knot.
Just saw this on Reddit and it's very impressive! Some of those moves are lightning fast! Also, you were very cool under pressure. The tangle seems like no big deal. Great showmanship!
One thing I realised is that whenever US gets the world title, it's always the japanese that gets 2nd and 3rd, and this is evident as seen in worlds 2014,2015 and 2018
This is super cool. Could we possibly run this video on Metro.co.uk and its social media channels? With credit and links back to Evan and the competition? This is mesmerising - thanks!
Took me back to the late 70's/early 80's when me and my older Brother were learning to YoYo. Same music playing too (HaHa)... YoYo, Rubik,Chess,Ping Pong (and even Hula-Hoop) were all the craze !!! Not only Insanely fun (and so hard at first to learn) But Incredibly fun to watch !!! Gotta pretty cool bit for you if you're interested. It would take alot of work, but you're no stranger to that.....
I did this same exact routine in my bedroom once on my 3rd day of a methamphetamine binge. Then I couldn't find my yo-yo because I've never owned one. Thing that make you go hum.

I'm a huge fan. The wEDGE and EDGE are my favourites. Most of my tricks are inspired by you.
Evan Nagao This is the best comment anywhere on the internet, period.
Congratulations

"I LOVE YOU"
"I LOVE YOU TOO"
"I wanna be a Yo Yo Man!" he cried, "Make me a Yo Yo Man!"
But the Yo Yo Master did not answer. He just kept on Yoing.
He said "Iloveyoutoo" tho?😂
Yo do me yoyo master, I want you to do it because your the yoyo guy
All around youtube yoyo videos I always see him commenting on them and probably learning from them. He definitely deserved this years worlds title
CONGRATS EVAN!
I believed that you would win Nationals and you did! I was really hoping you win the world and you did it again! CONGRATS MAN!
Thank you reddit.
piss off
Yo whats up dude
Wtf you everywhere....even in minor hobby that rarely founded(sorry freakin bad english)
what the FUCK Justin
Justin Y. What’s your profile pic cause I feel like I see it every where
Watching the whole thing at 0.25 speed is the correct way.
This routine made me smile the entire time I watched it. Truly a great performance and a great routine. Congrats.
Man this takes me back. I remember when I stopped yoyoing for a while this guy was the last person I had watched. It's been a year now. It's really amazing to see how far he has gotten. I'm now motivated more than ever to try and get to speed with all the professionals
same, i will always remember him as the dude who rolled on the floor at the U.S. nationals
The 4y old boy on Jay Leno too
For the next 15 years WYYC will need to have drug test...
What why
Rumor has it, there is a footlong sandwich and a full head of lettuce in his stomach
Anthony Throws *BURGER KING FOOT LETTUCE*
The riskiest freestyle I’ve ever seen.
Bruh... 2:49 , if that aint divine intervention idk what is.
You mean the Fact he snapped his fingers and the Knot dissappeared Nagao is God

Owen Ekblad Fake GT suicide?
Luke Franse yes sir! The idea is to fake the judges into thinking it’s a real triangle, when in reality there’s absolutely no risk involved.
Owen Ekblad exposed
Gentry
Zach
Now Evan , welcome to the dream team
Hamad Ahmad n8 ta gr8 next
I'm waiting for Keiran cooper
Never has a yo-yo performance almost bring tears to my eyes.. Until now. Well deserved #inspirstional
Thank you, Phil, for showing me that yoyo is still cool in 2018!
Idk why but watching this video makes me feel glad. Its just good for him, his passion can be felt trough the video.
This gave me motivation to start yoyoing again
I've never watched a yo yo video before. But watching his happiness at the end made me completely get it.
Most humble guy in the community, so happy for you Evan :)
I was there at Worlds. I was in the audience and saw this awesome freestyle
You looked so happy and proud of yourself at the end! Gave me goosebumps!!
It's so smoothing watching him doing it so effortlessly
DAMN. Never thought a yoyo coukld make me cry!
Crowd is unbelievably hype. Well deserved!
Just saw this on Reddit and it's very impressive! Some of those moves are lightning fast! Also, you were very cool under pressure. The tangle seems like no big deal. Great showmanship!
I've never been so amazed by a cylinder on a string before, you keep doing you man, keep doing you!
Thank you Phily D for this. Your secret links rarely disappoints
Was sent here by Philip DeFranco! Thumbs up if you're a beautiful bastard too!
Ya Evan your the man i can not believe it you win the world yo yo contest , you are favorite yo yo players i got to say you did Evan good job
This is by far the best song with the best gitar solo, great music choise.
This is the most enthusiastic crowd I've ever heard.
world champion 2018 evan! yyf! just announced
amazing vid worth the watch, and a classic song in the bg.
Perfect song choice, it’s like a rock concert!
That's amazing! Fantastic!
Although this brought him his world champ title, I still think his 2018 US performance tad better. It feels like he was going all out on that one
Way to go kid. Your enthusiam is inspirational.
He is 45 years old.
@@HellenicBM bruh wtf lmao
Another viral video in the process
Thank you Phil, you made us see the truth with Yoyos that are free as birds. You can't change this PhillyD!

Thanks Phil
Man that's a hard song to do a routine to! Mad respect! One day I'll be there with you I just know it!
Deserved. Dudes been throwing for so long. Congrats dawgie.

One thing I realised is that whenever US gets the world title, it's always the japanese that gets 2nd and 3rd, and this is evident as seen in worlds 2014,2015 and 2018
YESSSSS IT'S BACK!!!
This is super cool. Could we possibly run this video on Metro.co.uk and its social media channels? With credit and links back to Evan and the competition? This is mesmerising - thanks!
I love the crowd
Excellent song choice, amigo!
So much enthusiasm, congratulations!
How is this not an Olympic sport yet?!?!

Tere ghar

You earned if. Congrats!
What equipment are you using for this performance?

What is this song
Wow, I didn't know stuff like this was even possible!Philly D sent me here.
Evan I always thought u were the GOAT man!
I can't even get the yoyo to come back up.
Funny thing is that there is no Hawaii in BG map(where the logo and sponsors are shown) but a *legend* from Hawaii wins
I did this same exact routine in my bedroom once on my 3rd day of a methamphetamine binge. Then I couldn't find my yo-yo because I've never owned one. Thing that make you go hum.
i just wanna know how the string doesn't get tangled up...
I was here before this video had millions of views.
Let's GO!!!!!!!
まじでうまいって‼️
yoyoing really has evolved
music ??
ITS BACK UP
I've never seen so much hype around a yoyo before lol
