- Footage from the 1962 Duncan National Yo-Yo Contest presented by Bob Rule. Winner was Pat Brown who won $5000. Which would be $35,700 today!
A Special thank you goes to Bob Rule, and the Brown family for filming, and sharing this priceless footage.
The winner of the contest was Richard Woodward,he is my uncle :)
Fun!
Dang that's alot of money back then. That's one heck of a first place prize.
It's alot of money now. Most contests now-a-days give out expensive yo-yos as prizes, no cash.
I remember this as a kid.....we youngsters were really into this back then. ;-)
Marvelous!!! I miss my Duncan yo-yo. Anyone remember the butterfly yo-yo? That was fancier.
I think you would be blown away if you saw how modern yoyos have evolved. The two in this video are using Yoyofactory Miracles which are just one of many really awesome modern yoyos - th-cam.com/video/J-3wG0QJnK4/w-d-xo.html
I won the 1st Duncan Yo-Yo contest at Freedom Land in 1961!
Looked it up $5k in 1962 is about $49k today.
very very amazing footage.
thank you very very much for posting :-)
YEAH! This is EPIC
Didn't the winner of worlds 2017 or 2018 only get $600? $5,000 is substantially more, especially given the time period. Wish yoyo still had it's former glory. Let's bring it back people!
Yeah!!
Wow
