C3 YoYoDesign have announced the retirement of their “Berserker” model and it’s coming re-release as “Berserker RX” with some changes to the weight distribution and design. Below is their marketing copy for the new model, and everyone here at YoYoNews believe this might well be the absolute best modern yoyo description ever, of all time.

Berserker fighted very hard with his last rage for the World in Doomsday. He won the battle but almost lost all his strength and dying….Suddenly, there is a bright light from heaven shine on him. Berserker “REBORN” with “EXTREME” power! Now Berserker RX stand and fight for the New Era!!!!!

In early 2012, we released Berserker, the bi-metal yoyo designed for the ulitmate performance. It brought noise and ideas on competitive yoyo designs to the market.

On Berserker RX, we reduced the 6061 ratio on body and add the weight to the 7075 rings. With the heavier and new shape rings, Berserker RX will have better spin power especially on horizontal tricks due to the new weight distribution. Last but not least, Berserker RX have a more powerful binding. This make you can catch it back on your hand more comfortable after a long combo!!!

Release at Jan 2013 Worldwide.
