Seriously, what the hell is going on with Werrd lately? Nothing but gold coming from those guys. Alex Curfman clocks in with the second video in Werrd’s Minute Minute series, and some great tricks. Also, anyone else notice that everyone seems to be wearing that JohnBot-designed Picture Trick shirt by Save Deth in videos lately?
Werrd Bounty – Win $$$ For Contest Placement
The skinny is – Use any Werrd “Time Series” yo-yo (EIGHTY-SIX400, HOUR or MINUTE) and win any recognized Regional, National or International contest and take home SWAG!
A Werrd Prize bounty valued at thousands of $$$ is up for grabs!
We’re still so confident about how good the Werrd “Time Series” throws are that we’re offering the bounty as a standing offer.
What is the WERRD BOUNTY?
At Werrd, we’re all about ‘technical excellence’. That means we create tricky computer stuffs together with a spinny cutting machine to make jojos play great. With that in mind we designed – the HOUR. Then we tweaked it to make it even better and lo…the 2K13 HOUR was born. After that, we created the EIGHTY-SIX400 and then the MINUTE and all of them were deserving of being featured in the BOUNTY promotion.
How does it work…
If you win:
- A recognized Regional event, you will get a pick of the board… select ANY Werrd yoyo from the current range** (or possibly one of the Special Editions from the vault).
- Your country’s National Event, you will be able to collect Werrd Swag valued up to $600
- An International Event (eg. Worlds, APs, EYYC, 44 Clash etc), you will sweep a WERRD BOUNTY valued at up to $1000 off our hands
That’s right – game changing… if you win, you score. Pretty simple.
Eligibility:
You are eligible to win the Bounty if you have competed and won a recognized Regional or National level yoyo contest or if you take out a World Record using the Hour (see Terms and Conditions below).
No restriction on who can claim the bounty… You can be sponsored, Unsponsored, Werrd Alliance or Wrecking Crew, a Nun, Cheech or Chong… anyone actually.

YoYoDrop – Werrd 2K13 Hour
Werrd dropped pics of the updated Hour yoyo on their way to Japan Nationals, but I was able to catch Stu Brown in transit for some more details!
Werrd 2K13 Hour Specs:
- 60mm diameter
- 41.5mm wide
- 4.7mm gap
- 65.5 grams
- K-pad response
- Center Trac Bearing
- BluePrint String
-
Splash Anodised (multiple colors)
-
Gold Anodized (for the pimp look)
-
Silver Anodized (for stage bling)
According to Stu:
I revised the weight distribution to see if we could speed up the Hour on the string a little. This is tricky for such a large diameter yoyo but I was able to do this by adding percentage weight to the rim and increasing spin time while actually making the 2K13 Hour lighter and more maneuverable. Success.The Werrd Bounty is still up for grabs and the Hour and 2K13 Hour are the current weapons of choice. Before Worlds we will add another yoyo (or maybe 2) to the eligible Bounty yoyo arsenal.Limited pieces of the 2K13 Hour will be pre-released at Japan Nationals this weekend. For Japan Nationals Werrd is attending in force; flying in, fresh off his BAC 3A Win is Eric Tran-ton. Australian National Champion Vu Ho and Yu Tsumura will also be in attendance as well as the heart beat of Werrd – Stu Brown and Andrew Savage.
Sounds like huge things are in store for Werrd…we’ll update with more info as we’re able to get it. In the meantime, check out the team and new throws at Japan Nationals this weekend! Stu hinted to me that there might be some more new releases at Japan Nationals if they make it in time…we’ll find out soon!
