First Look – One Drop Cabal
One Drop YoYos have finally released the Cabal, their long-rumored second plastic yoyo. Their first plastic yoyo, the Rally, was well received but discontinued, and was a molded part that was finished with machining. The Cabal is a completely machined, POM (commonly known by the trademarked named “Delrin”) yoyo with a custom machined axle & guts setup. They haven’t hit retailers yet, but expect to see them in stores this month! Check out full specs and more pics below.
