Nice video!
The meeting seems to have been a success.

How do you feel about organizing the ITSA World Spintop Contest in Paris sometime in the future? ;) ;D >:D

The Venue is much smaller than the other one but it's still for free and we benefit from the kitchen the lights and the sound system we hope to have around the 12 foreign players and the same amount for French yoyoers
