Learn the yo-yo Trickladder
The yo-yo Trickladder is one of the most accessible ways to compete. It requires participants to perform a set of tricks and elements that start out easy and become gradually harder.
Since they start out easy and get progressively harder, they can also be used as a guide for people who are getting into the sport.
So even if you are still relatively new to yoyoing, you can still compete! All you need to do is learn as many tricks from the official Trickladder as possible and remember how to do them in front of a jury!
Our Dutch community members Alexander and Stijn worked hard to compile a complete list of tutorials for the Trickladder in Dutch. You can find the playlist here on YouTube so you can start today!
