Acquaintance Presents: Mizuki Takimoto

July 21, 2015 By Steve Brown

We haven’t had much 3A on the site lately, so it’s a treat that Mizuki Takimoto is the one to break our dry spell. Mizuki took 2nd place in 3A at both Japan Nationals and the Asia Pacific YoYo Championship, and he’s a front-runner for the 3A division at Worlds this year. Good luck, Mizuki!

YoYo Spotlight – Rebellion Acro

July 21, 2015 By Steve Brown

Rebellion Acro by YoYorecreation

Rebellion Acro Specs:

Diameter: 55.50 mm
Width: 45.17 mm
Gap: 4.50 mm
Weight: 67 grams
Response: 19mm Slim Pads
Bearing: Konkave Size C (.250 x .500 x .187)

The Acro is part of the first wave of releases from Rebellion, a new budget line of yoyos created by Kengo Kido and Piotrek Smietana of YoYoRecreation.

PLAY

The Acro is a budget-friendly aluminum yoyo, based slightly on the design of the YoYoRecreation Acrophobia. When you think of a budget model, “dead smooth” isn’t the first thing that comes to mind but the Rebellion Acro brings a smoothness that will leave you wondering just how they are able to sell this for such a low price. The full-sized body and wide profile make it easy to hit anything you’re trying on this yoyo, and it throws smooth and binds tight. It has a solid, quality feel and plays like a yoyo twice its price, and the inclusion of a Konkave bearing will make plenty of players happy. Fast on the string and long-spinning, the Acro is sure to become a contest favorite for players looking to get the most for their money. Excellent for 1A or 5A, although it may be too wide for most 3A players tastes.

LOOKS

The fit and finish on the Rebellion Acro light are excellent for a budget yoyo. Available in solid colors only, the Acro is meant to be a solid value with a simple aesthetic. Packed in a stamped cardboard box, the Acro features only a simple engraving with its name and the flag icon of the Rebellion line. Simple and straightforward, this model is meant for players.

VALUE

The Rebellion Acro retails for just $50, making it an amazing value for the serious player on a budget. With high quality manufacturing and great play value, the Acro is unbelievably good and meets or exceeds the value of most other yoyos in this price range. The Acro looks, plays, and holds up like a far more expensive yoyo, and should serve you well.

BUY THE REBELLION ACRO

The Rebellion Acro is available now at YoYoExpert.com.
