Test Subject 001 was basically me and Spencer screwing around in Davis, CA. Neither of us had any new material but we wanted to shoot a video. So we decided to experiment with angles, shots, etc. A lot of videos up to this point were just shot head on. Tricks were designed to be viewed from the front, and little thought was really given to any other viewpoint except for the player’s view. So we decided to play around.

Some of the stuff is goofy. We also decided to play around with filters which helped us realized that filters and yoyo tricks don’t really belong together. The whole thing was shot in about 2 hours of just wandering around parks and Jack-in-the-Boxes. In the end, while it wasn’t a groundbreaking video, it was a fun evening of filming.

4-14-01 Spindox Video

The 4-14-01 Spindox Club Meet was one of the few meets that were located in Jack London Square, CA. This plaza by the bay is always windy, but the weather happened to be particularly nice that day. It was a nice change of venue from the usual Roundtable Pizza or UC Berkeley Campus.

There wasn’t a lot of new content to film, so the club footage had to be combined with some footage of myself and Spencer, which was shot on UC Davis campus. This is the video that debuted the original Laceration. This is probably one of my least favorite videos, although at the time I thought it was pretty cool (and so did many others!).
