Well, we didn’t see this one coming.
World and National Champion Tyler Severance has announced that he has left YoYoFactory and is starting up his own new company, Recess, with aluminum and bi-metal yoyos that will be available first at Worlds, and a plastic yoyo that will debut soon after! And he’s announced his first three team members….Patrick Borgerding, Ian Johnson, and Ky Zizan! Whoa, right?
Check out his first video with prototypes of his new yoyos. I’ve already bugged Tyler for samples, so we’ll get pics and specs to you as soon as possible. Congratulations Tyler…this is a HUGE step forward, and we wish you the best of luck!
Anyone else thinking about the TV show ‘Recess’ episode with the yoyos? Was hoping to see the “invisible man” trick in the video… =P
Cool! I hope some of those metal/bi-metals make it to an internet release.
I’m sure they will. 🙂
Played one of the Prototypes… Pure Awesome.
What an incredible group of players to start with, that, and what an amazing set of repeaters on Tyler’s video. Plus I love the name of the company, Recess (like the ones you need for a good flowable silicone response system). That’s what I call the proper way to launch a new company.
Pretty sure the company name has nothing to do with response grooves, ha ha
