CLYW Presents: Puffin ft. Palli Gudmundsson

December 4, 2017 By Steve Brown

The pride of Iceland, Palli Gudmundsson shows off the tricks that have made him one of the most popular yoyo players in Europe. It’s rare that we get a video from Palli, but always worth the wait.

Yoyo used is the CLYW Puffin.

First Look – CLYW Puffin

November 2, 2017 By Steve Brown

The third iteration of the CLYW Puffin, signature model for Icelandic champ Palli Gudmundsson, will be available at YoYoExpert on November 9th! There was initially a small release at the 2017 World YoYo Contest in Iceland, but this is the first full production release of this new design.

From CLYW:

OFFICIAL RETAIL RELEASE DATE:
NORTH AMERICA – THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 9 / 10 PM EDT / 7 PM PDT
JAPAN – FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 10TH, 11 AM JST
EUROPE – FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 10TH, 4 AM CEST

The Puffin is the newest signature model for Icelandic champ Palli Gudmundsson!

The evolution of the Puffin has matched Palli’s growth as a player. Always a wide return top to help Palli land his most difficult and acrobatic tricks, the newest version of the Puffin is the result of several years of conversations and refinement as Palli honed in on exactly what he needs on stage. The result is one of our most daring monometal designs, with a ton of rim weight pushed to the edge by an undercut that was intensely difficult to pull off.

The result is a truly unique return top that speaks to Palli’s skill, daring, and innovation as a player while still delivering a degree of familiarity that lets you know you’re throwing something from CLYW. We’re very proud of this design, and can’t wait to see what you do with it!

The new Puffin hits YoYoExpert on November 9th at 10pm EDT in all colors. Check out full specs and more photos below!

PUFFIN SPECS:

DIAMETER – 54 MM
WIDTH – 46.9 MM
WEIGHT – 66.25 GRAMS
BEARING – CT BEARING
RESPONSE – SNOW TIRES

Ann Connolly – Am I Allowed To Show This?

March 10, 2017 By Steve Brown

Ann Connolly’s latest video blog finds her apartment loaded with yoyo players gearing up for EYYC! Gentry Stein, Andrew Maider, and Palli Gudmundsson all stopped by for dinner (orange chicken w/white rice) and so that Gentry could help Andrew with his freestyle. And then we got a sneak peek of Ann’s new signature edition of the Shutter, with a sweet looking purple-to-pink fade!

Yoyos used are the CLYW Blizzard and YoYoFactory Shutter.

CLYW in Prague

April 14, 2016 By Steve Brown

I’m so jealous of everyone who got to attend the 2016 European YoYo Championship this year…it was another fantastic event, run by great people, filled with amazing players. But luckily there have been a slew of great EYYC recap videos (like this one from Jeffrey Pang) and now my homies at CLYW have dropped this fantastic bit of video showing off some amazing tricks and good times. I really need to get out to more contests.

The CLYW team is scattered across eight countries and three continents, so when they get together it’s filled with laughter, camaraderie, great tricks, and good times.

A huge chunk of the team converged on Prague for the 2016 European YoYo Championship. They had a great time. Featuring Petr Kavka, Tessa Piccillo, Palli Gudmundsson, Alec Campbell, Riccardo Fraolini, Ayumu Harada and Nuu Gatowsky. Special guest appearances by Eiji Okuyama, Jake Mulvey and David Stejskal.

(And here’s a Vimeo version…a few people reported problems viewing the YouTube version on mobile.)

Palli Gudmundsson on TV

February 24, 2015 By Steve Brown

CLYW team member Palli Gudmundsson scored a pretty awesome gig! He was filmed for a mobile phone commercial, but for the final commercial they lopped off his head with digital effects and added the head of, in his words, “the Ryan Gosling of Iceland”. AMAZING.
