YoYoFactory dropped two new models under the radar, both from metals that we don’t normally see in the average yoyo release.
The YoYoFactory Heist is the newest stainless steel pocket yoyo from YoYoFactory. Previous steel models have been more of a novelty…the Stainless Steel Whistler was purely for noisy fun, while the Mighty Flea was playable but incredibly tiny and limited. The Heist steps up their game quite a bit with a larger than the Flea (but still pocket sized) release. The density of stainless steel allows them to give it the weight distribution of a full-sized yoyo in a decidedly undersized package. All the play at a fraction of the size!
YoYoFactory Heist Specs:
Diameter: 40 mm
Width: 25.64 mm
Weight: 61.5 grams
Bearing: Small Center Trac (5 x 10 x 4 mm)
Response: CBC Small Pad
Material: Stainless Steel
And next up we have the YoYoFactory Space Crown Ultra, the first yoyo from YoYoFactory to utilize 7068 grade aluminum. This ultra-tough alloy has a better weight:strength ratio than Grade 5 Titanium at a fraction of the price, and is pretty new to the yoyo industry. Featuring a nice looking v-shape and a great fingerspin hub, we can’t wait to get our hands on one of these and beat the everloving crap out of it!

Width: 45.75 mm
