DOC LUCKY’S DUOS

Presented by Doc Lucky’s Yo-Yo Talk

RULES

  • Teams of two perform a routine together in this fun, outside-the-box one-round final.

    Each Duo is comprised of two competitors on the stage—no more, no less.

    Duos' performances are 2-minutes long, set to music of the players' choice.

    • We are using a subjective scoring method, based on the judging criteria in the following section. The main judging criteria competitors should consider is crowd reaction and engagement – these two elements make up the entertainment criteria, which is about 50% of the score.

    • If there is a tie, both tied duos will go on stage and throw a long sleeper while standing on one foot. If the sleeper stops or any player’s lifted foot touches the ground, that team loses to the other team.

  • Awards are given to the top three duos.

JUDGING CRITERIA

  • How entertaining the performance is, including crowd reaction and engagement.

  • Examples include costumes, weird hats, stage props, stage sets, juggling, new tricks, props incorporated into the performance, use of other skill toys, dance, singing, skit performance, custom-created music, magic, athletics, weird yo-yos, comedy lighting effects, body paint, etc.

  • How interactive the two players are with each other and the crowd.

  • Flawless execution of tricks or a lot of misses?
