There are so many things going on at the same time at worlds that it was difficult to find a time slot to do the corkscrew challenge. For example, Dick and yohans could not make it because they were with the yo-yo world records (we had tried to get the main stage just before that but were kicked out by the "action-packed" Buddha-sleeper
) Alan, Eric and Kyle were running the modding contest, so they could just sneak out briefly.
Except for Alan who skipped all the way to 10 wraps and Dale who only made one throw, the rest went in order starting at 4 wraps (I didn't show the 4s to shorten the video). I have Dale as doing 6 wraps because that was announced, but now looking at the video I think those were just 5. Anyway, we'll give the "Old Master" the extra credit
It is interesting the contrast between Mike's very slow corkscrew (using a TB) and Chris' very fast (using a BK). But both keep the arm much lower than Tom and me.
thanx jorge

i enjoyed the french song in the background ,too

Yes, it was super friendly. But I have the feeling next year it may be more competitive . . . I expect the video to raise the stakes. I bet the record will be broken . . . And we will have a corked bottle to open with the trophy
Yes, French music in your honor, Jim. However, it should have been more in the background. It is a great song but now I cannot take out of my head . . .
