First Look – CLYW Manatee
CLYW has officially released photos and specs for the new Riccardo Fraolini signature yoyo, the Manatee! There will be a small pre-release this weekend at the 2016 Bay Area Classic, and the full release will happen in early June at retailers worldwide. Riccardo was the 2015 Trick Innovator of the Year, and has been the undisputed king of the #trickcircle on Instagram pretty much since the concept started.
Designed collaboratively by Riccardo Fraolini and Chris Mikulin, the Manatee is the first model they’ve released that’s this wide, and also the first full-sized yoyo in a budget price range. With an expected retail price of $80-$90, the Manatee is nearly the price of the short-lived Campfire pocket yoyo they released a few years back.
The CLYW Manatee will be available early June at CLYW retailers worldwide in solid and splash colors.

CLYW in Prague
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.)
