The current Duncan, as far as I can tell, is not the Duncan we grew up loving.
Yo Yo Duncan does not equal Spin Top Duncan.  It is erroneous to Judge an entity on one act versus the whole. 

BTW, Donald F. Duncan invented the parking meter.

Huh? That is an erroneous statement about erroneous judgment. Judgment is passed on singular acts all of the time. Just ask the senior in high school, who peed his pants in the first grade, what his nickname is.

Are they different companies? Is the Duncan yo-yo company fantastic?

Oh so it must be the correct thing to do.  My mistake.

Sometimes it seems that way.

I feel like a jerk for holding out, but I have some video of the freestyles. 

It's not great, but it's something--I'll get it posted soon.  I set up a video camera after Mike finished and got the rest of the freestyles--sort of.  The camera was unattended and when players moved off to the left, well, some of the action went off-screen.  I was a little out of it after rushing to the Rosen and didn't think straight away to record from the beginning, so please, no offense to those who went first, I would have recorded more if I had the presence of mind to start sooner.  I did in fact get a little bit of Mike from the sidelines--I'll post that too.

Sorry to be missing in action lately...

Glad to have you with us again, poptop.  I was wondering what I said that ticked you off!!!

No apologies necessary for missing the first spinners at worlds.  I was just thrilled you made it there (with only seconds to spare).  I can't believe you were able to get a camera set up at all with all the rush rush.

Thanks for your help, poptop!
