YoYoDrop – YoYoRecreation Dazzler
YoYoRecreation is finally releasing the Dazzler, their titanium yoyo based on the shape of the first edition of their popular Stargazer yoyo. 28spin.com posted some great pics and specs, although their claim that this is the “first ever full titanium yoyo made in the world that looks good and performs for competitive play” is bold (and totally unfounded) marketing copy. There have been plenty of titanium yoyos made, and they all seem plenty capable of high-level competition play. I daresay they were all pretty damn good looking, too.
If my currency convertor is correct, this is going to retail for about $650 USD. Full specs and pictures are below, as well as video of the Dazzler in action with YoYoRecreation player Tatsuya Fujisaka.
