Evan Nagao was only three years old when his dad, Alan Nagao taught him how to yo-yo. Evan's father is also the owner of a former yo-yo shop in Hawaii, and was also responsible for forming THP, the legendary yo-yo demonstration team which was partly responsible for the widespread yo-yo boom during the 1990's.
In 2009, Evan became a sponsored player for YoYoFactory.
In June 2016, Evan's first signature series yo-yo, the YoYoFactory Edge, was released.
In October 2017, he became the 2017 U.S. National 1A Champion, wiping out the three-time National 1A Champion, Gentry Stein.
Shortly afterwards, Evan released a new plastic signature model, the Wedge.
In 2018, Evan Nagao took the 1A world championship title using the Edge Beyond yo-yo at the World Yo-Yo Contest.
