Benjamin (Ben) Conde is a former member of the YoYoJam contest team, and is currently sponsored by Basecamp. Ben's main styles of play are Offstring and 1A, and his 4A performances are highly regarded for their detailed musical choreography, in addition to the most extreme and difficult bangers in the game.
As a member of Team YoYoJam, Ben had various signature yoyos, including the Ben Jammin, Big Ben, Bigger Ben, and Go Big.
He recently learned 2A and showed his moves in the 2012 Calfornia State and Z Games Yo-Yo Contest. His older brother, Andrew Conde, was a member of Team High Performance back in the day. He grew up in Kansas, but had also attended and graduated from Depaul University, and held a full-time job as a graphic artist in Los Angeles. He also maintains a YouTube Channel that he had started back in 2013 [1].
In Fall 2016, Ben quit his job as a graphic artist to collaborate with YoYoFactory and YoYoExpert in the YoYoFactory Adventure project, where he would travel around Asia for 15 days, starting in Japan and ending in Shanghai.
