Kyle Nations – Cool In The Shade

June 26, 2014 By Steve Brown

Kyle Nations drops another glorious fixie yoyo bomb with his new video, “Cool in the Shade”. If fixed axle yoyoing was a three headed dragon, Kyle would be the head that Ed Haponik always yells at even though it was actually the Drew Tetz head that lit that fart with his dragon breath.

It’s entirely too late at night for me to be making metaphors.

Yoyos used are the BC Atlas, and the Royale w/Cheese & Missing Link by Square Wheels.

CLYW Sasquatch Release

June 26, 2014 By YoYoNews

Sasquatch with Box

 

The Sasquatch is BACK! One of CLYW’s longest-spinning and most stable yoyos to date has been updated with new weight distribution and new colorways. Unseen for a few years, the Sasquatch was originally designed as an upsized version of the Gnarwhal but quickly built itself a reputation as an absolute monster on the string.

This full-sized yoyo is just a hair wider than the original, less than one millimeter, but the response area has been carved out a bit to accept Snow Tires and the weight was pushed outward just a little…enough to make a noticeable difference in increased speed, spin time and stability.

The Sasquatch is an all-new monster…smoother, a little bit faster, more stable, and ready to handle the toughest tricks you can imagine. Available worldwide on June 26th at 10 pm EST / 7 pm PDT (June 27th at 2 am GMT) at the following retailers:

North America:

YoYoExpert 
YoYoBestBuy

Europe:

YoYoZ
La Tienda Del YoYo
YoYoRaven
SLUSNY

Asia:

YoYoStore Rewind
YoYoAddict
SpinGear

CLYW Sasquatch Specs:

Diameter: 55.56 mm / 2.18 inches
Width: 42.92 mm / 1.69 inches
Gap Width: 4.20 mm / .16 inches
Weight: 67.7 gram
Bearing: 10-Ball Size C (.250 x .500 x .187)
Response: CLYW Snow Tires

First Look: YoYoJam Revival

June 26, 2014 By Steve Brown

YoYoJam Revival

Introducing Revival — a breakthrough hybrid from YoYoJam®! The Revival is Grant Johnson’s newest signature 1A model. For the first time ever YoYoJam® is introducing a fusion of durable celcon plastic with precision machined aluminum rings that literally “wrap” around from its exterior to its interior. It’s the most advanced hybrid YoYoJam® has ever produced. Grant visualized every fine detail of the unique shape of Revival to allow for maximum spin time and true control.

From the first time you throw Revival you will discover a truly solid and satisfying experience – especially when you bind it. Its powerful focus on rim weight and emphasis on precision balance results in a truly one-of-a-kind throw. Every bind and return is surprisingly strong and forceful. Set up out of the box with YoYoJam’s® Solid Spin Axle, silicone response, and their premium stainless steel 10-ball Speed Bearing, the Revival plays like a full metal but for a fraction of the cost. And like all YoYoJam® products, it is proudly made in the U.S.A!

Revival’s celcon interior combined with its unique finish on the aluminum rings make grinds easier to learn. Its wide, yet slimmed shape makes a great yo-yo for 3A and 5A as well. Horizontal play in any style is stable and impressive.

The Revival is ready for the most complex of tricks, so be prepared to experiment and have fun with this exceptionally refreshing yo-yo. YoYoJam® has taken the hybrid line and once again reinvented it for modern play!

YoYoJam Revival Specs:

Diameter: 56.36mm
Width: 42.29mm
Weight: 69 grams
Response: Silicone
Bearing: 10-ball Stainless Speed Bearing
Axle System: Solid Spin
