One Drop YoYos – VTWO

August 4, 2018 By Steve Brown

It took Vilmos Zoltan Kiss and One Drop two years and two trips from Hungary to Oregon to finalize the design for the VTWO, and it’s finally here! Check out his new video and full specs and details.

Hi there! Vilmos here. I couldn’t be more happy and proud to introduce the VTWO. It took us two years and two summer trips to Eugene to see it to its completion.

The VTWO, continues the line of the Vilmos Zoltan Kiss signature series. As with the Valor, I was dedicated to be as personally involved in the design process as the first time.

The Valor was designed to excel in competition yo-yoing and it hit the mark based on the feedback we received. For the VTWO, I wanted to raise the bar even higher in terms of performance, quality and making sure that the design was distinct and iconic.

I love straight lines, flat surfaces and minimalistic design so the V-shape was a no brainer. Using the advantages of 7075 aluminum we were able to make the body ultra thin and maximize the rim weight for more power, more performance. The wide open catch zone is great for maximum control and easy maneuverability. The surface is bead blasted to elevate the design and performance.

To keep it simple and elegant I aimed for a flat hub and decided to go with two grooves in the catch zone to complete the design and give a nod to the Valor’s “Triple Grooves” feature.

To further my personal journey in making the VTWO I wanted the art to stand out as much as the yo-yo. To achieve this we collaborated with Portland based comic book artist and writer Leila del Duca.

YoYo Drop – OneDrop Valor

January 18, 2014 By Steve Brown

OneDrop Valor YoYo

 

OneDrop has finally released full production photos and specs of their newest signature model yoyo, the Valor for Hungarian team member Vilmos Zoltan Kiss. The first release will be January 19th, 7:00 pm (GMT+2) at www.yoyoraven.com, with the rest of the world getting their supply shortly after.

The Valor was designed very much as a collaborative effort with Vilmos, with a lot of input and specific design elements (such as the triple grooves in the catch zone and in the hub) being dictated by Vilmos himself…so if you’re a fan of his play and style, you won’t want to pass this up!

OneDrop Valor Specs:

Weight: 66 grams
Width: 43 mm
Diameter: 56.5 mm
Response: Flow Groove
Gap Width: 4.45 mm
Bearing Size: Large (C) stainless steel (One Drop 10 Ball Bearing)
Aluminum: 7075
