Since the culmination of the modern yo-yo contest beginning with the World Contest in 1992 and the US National Yo-Yo Contest in 1993 there has been a tremendous change in the styles of yo-yo play. The AYYA has a record of the champions through the present day.

The AYYA is the organization charged with keeping and tracking the Yo-Yo World Records. The records were originally established at the World Yo-Yo Championship in Rapid City, South Dakota in 1996. Since that time, technology has greatly changed in the yo-yo world that has caused many of the records to be eclipsed. But, every record that has ever been set is listed in the database, so check out the past records too.

AYYA Champ Rules:

The AYYA Champion will be decided based on a point system.  Point values shall be assigned to a player based on the level of competition and their placement in a freestyle.  Everyone who enters a contest will be given points.  However, only players who are AYYA members can win the points race, and only contests that are AYYA Sanctioned count towards the point totals. A player may become a member during the tracking season at anytime, and all their points will count in the points race.  Thus points ARE retroactive.  The year's AYYA Champion will be decided upon using contests between U.S. Nationals. (For example: The 2009 AYYA Champ scoring will use points from sanctioned contests starting after U.S. Nationals 2008 including and ending after U.S. Nationals 2009.). At Nationals a single AYYA Champion will be crowned.

The Point System:

National Yo-Yo Contest - Any Final Freestyle Division
1st Place - 10 points
2nd Place - 5 points
3rd Place - 3 points
4th Place - 1 point
5th Place or lower - .5
