Rules for Doc Lucky’s Duos Division
Additionally, there will be a special prize awarded to any 1A Division Finalist who successfully completes a routine consisting of a single throw and all regenerations. This challenge would involve throwing the yo-yo once at the start of the routine, and flawlessly performing regens between each trick without catching the yo-yo until the conclusion of the routine. In the event that more than one 1A Finalist completes this feat, the award goes to the highest final score.
