Settings

What are all those numbers, though?

Control

(Control of Yo-Yo/String, Line of String, Trajectory of Yo-Yo, Smooth landings and flowing transitions)

Are the tricks executed in a clean, fluid and controlled manner?
Do the transitions into and between trick elements demonstrate mastery and control of the yo-yo style?
Does the yo-yo land and exit the string cleanly?
Were tricks maneuvered smoothly?
Were the tricks refined well to be presented?

# It is not about how smooth the routine is, nor the number of mistakes. It is simply how good the control of yo-yo and string is.

Music Use

Music Use concentrating on hitting sounds, beats, tempo, rhythm, cues, etc. and also on phases/stages, mood, imagery/atmosphere, tone, theme..
Are there any cues or points that show a clear sense of choreography?
Are the trick and body moves matched with the music?
Are the tempo of tricks/combos and music rhythm/beat matched?
Does the music seem to fit the freestyle theme?
Are body moves and trick choice matched with the music?
Did the freestyle have scene changes, peak control, or climax?

Space Use

Amplitude/Focus, Size of Yo-Yo Moves, Stage Use:
(Size of expression, moves, performance, Effective use of stage and space, and/or focusing on/into a subject effectively)
Does the contestant use the stage and space effectively?
Is the trick performed big and easy-to-see?
Were the small moves or subtle actions focused to gather the audience’s attention?

Presentation

Theme/Story, Enjoyment, Entertainment, Overall Impression of Show:
How entertaining was the freestyle presentation?
Does the freestyle have a story or theme?
Is there any effective usage of an outfit?
Does the performance attract and entertain the audience?
# Interesting or Entertainment Value that comes from pure amazing yo-yo skill will not be counted here. Added work toward making the freestyle interesting (Showmanship) on top of the yo-yo tricks and skills is required here.

Major Deductions (Stop, Discard, Detach)

These deductions are subtracted from the final score.

Stop (Restart) – Minus 1
Any stop of yo-yo spin with string fully unwound is counted here.

Discard (Change) – Minus 3
Any yo-yo change will be counted.
If the contestant cannot make the yo-yo come back to the hand at the end of the freestyle, both a stop and a discard is counted.

Detach (String Cut) – Minus 5
Yo-Yo coming apart, string cut, or string detach.
