2025 World Sign Spinning Champion – Kadeem Johnson Captures his Fifth Title

/

March 14, 2025

Las Vegas was once again the epicenter of the sign spinning world as AArrow Sign Spinners from across the country gathered to compete in the highly anticipated World Sign Spinning Championship (WSSC). These athletes have dedicated themselves to the AArrow culture, putting in countless hours working regular shifts while also training relentlessly for a shot at the prestigious title and the $5,000 grand prize.

The competition was fierce, with previous champions returning to defend their titles and a new wave of talented competitors looking to make their mark. The energy was electric as the best of the best showcased their skills, pushing the limits of what’s possible in sign spinning.

Kadeem Johnson Makes History!

On Saturday, March 8, over fifty of the best AArrow Sign Spinners in the world gathered at the Fremont Street Experience in Las Vegas, but only one emerged as the 2025 World Sign Spinning Champion: Kadeem Johnson.

Kadeem began spinning signs with AArrow in 2008 and quickly rose to the top of the world rankings. His charming demeanor combines well with his classic b-boy moves, as he spins upside down on one hand while flipping the sign in between his legs with the other.

The “Jamaican Me Crazy,” named in honor of Kadeem’s hometown of St. Catherine’s, has become a staple in many great sign spinning routines. This year, Kadeem even incorporated tricks from other competitors to put an end to the question for now—Who’s the greatest sign spinner of all time? Kadeem Johnson. “El Cinco” for now.

He secured his fifth championship title with an unforgettable performance, with his kids and wife cheering him on, adding an emotional and triumphant moment to his legendary career. His dedication, skill, and passion have solidified his place as one of the greatest sign spinners of all time.
