 Sponsors and Curators
The Museum of Yo-Yo History is a labor of love, and we would not be able to stay up-to-date with exhibits without the support of our sponsors and curators. Big thanks go to One Drop Design and Duncan for supplying us with their latest models, YoYoExpert for their help and support, and to Cody Orr, TotalArtist and YoYoBrothers™ for allowing us to use their collections!
If you're a manufacturer, or just a big collector and you want to help support the Museum drop me at line at chimera@yoyomuseum.com

About the 2004 Japan National Yo-Yo Contest
Run by the Japan Yo-Yo Contest Committee, the body that later evolved into today's JYYF (Japan Yo-Yo Federation). Champions included Hiroyuki Suzuki (1A), Koji Yokoyama (2A), Daisuke Shimada (3A), Tsubasa Onishi (4A), and Hiroyasu Ishihara (5A).
Japan’s national championship for competitive yo-yo, contested in five freestyle divisions (1A–5A). Results pages show judging by Technical Execution (TE), and Performance/Presentation (PS) with a combined total. The event took place Sunday, March 28, 2004 at Kita City (Tokyo), in the Go Elementary School Gymnasium.
The Japan Nationals crowns Japan’s champions and (as a rule for the event) awards seeding to the World Yo-Yo Contest to its winners (the same year Worlds were held in Orlando, Florida, USA). Several JN2004 champions then figured prominently at Worlds including Hiroyuki Suzuki who won 1A Worlds 2004; Daisuke Shimada was in the middle of a 3A Worlds title streak (2003–2005); Tsubasa Onishi later captured the 4A world title in 2010.
