YoYo Drop – One Drop YoYos Top Deck

April 21, 2016 By Steve Brown

One Drop YoYos Top Deck JT Nickel

One Drop YoYos has fully unveiled the newest signature model for team member JT Nickel, the Top Deck! Made of 7075 aluminum and engineered exactly to JT’s specs, this latest model from One Drop hits stores on April 29th, 2016.

Here’s how JT describes it:

I wanted the Top Deck to move with ease and grace, similar to the Summit, but with a little more stability, for that extra edge during a session. We came up with a design that incorporated a mid-weight step (like the summit) but distributed the rest of the weight into the rim. Combined with an organic catch zone and the false rim look from the Cascade, the end result gave me my absolute favorite yo-yo to date. Fast, stable, comfortable, and made out of 7075 for some extra kick as well!

One Drop YoYos Top Deck Specs:

Weight: 66 grams
Width: 43 mm
Diameter: 56.5 mm
Stock Response: 19 mm Slim Flow Groove
Gap Width: 4.45 mm
Bearing Size: Large (C) stainless steel (One Drop 10 Ball Bearing)
Aluminum: 7075
Price: $79 and up

One Drop Player Spotlight – JT Nickel

June 25, 2014 By Steve Brown

One Drop released another Player Spotlight video, this one featuring team member JT Nickel. Check it out!

We are beyond ecstatic to have Jt Nickel on the squad. As an Oregon Native, he is of course a perfect fit for our brand. Jt’s yo-yoing has come a long way since he picked up his first yo-yo in the late stages of 2010. Since then, he has blossomed into a spectacular yo-yoer, showcasing his skills up and down the west coast with his very distinct style.

A recent graduate from university, Jt is getting his hands dirty in the art of machining and we’re excited to see what he ends up making!

JT Nickel – Shuppet Donk Tutorial

February 5, 2014 By Steve Brown

Aaron Davis stays behind the camera for this week’s tutorial and let’s JT Nickel have his way with us. This week’s trick, Shuppet Donk, is really cool and pretty difficult. I’m also nearly positive it’s named after a failed Muppet concept.

Yoyo used is the OneDrop Valor.

The BAC Experience (NSFW)

June 5, 2013 By Gabriel Lozano

This video is recommended for audiences 18 years and older.

Youtube version here.

Because it is my regional contest, The Bay Area Classic is dear to my heart. Currently held in San Francisco, CA, the BAC always manages to bring together many of the world’s greatest players.

Since I personally never compete, I am always a spectator on the sidelines. I don’t mind this. In fact, I embrace it. Very rarely do you see me without my trusty camera. Since 1998, I have shot video at pretty much every yoyo event I’ve gone to. Some people have said that my work has documented the growth and change of yoyoing over the past 15 years. While I don’t feel I’m worthy of such high praise, I do feel that my videos have made a large impact in the yoyo community. That is why when the BAC committee asked me if I was willing to help shoot freestyles for the event, I gladly accepted. This acceptance, however, came with a downside.

This year, BAC ran freestyles throughout the day (as opposed to the end of the day). While this made everything run much smoother, it meant that I was unable to film tricks for a clip video since I would be busy with freestyles all day. I was pretty bummed, as I really enjoy making clip videos. So, to get my “documenting fix” in, I decided to shoot photographs and maybe hope that I could grab some good video footage at the Official BAC BBQ on Sunday.

My initial video plan was to make a video that showed people hanging out at the BAC BBQ. I wanted to make a sequel to last year’s BAC video, but this time focus on the players themselves, instead of their tricks. I wanted to show all of us hanging out, laughing, having a good time, making up and sharing tricks, and relaxing after a tough competition. This was the plan until I got home and realized that the photos I had taken all weekend showed a much more interesting story.

Over the course of the weekend, I shot approximately 2000 photos using a combination of my iPhone, Lumix LX7, and Sony NEX-5N using (primarily) a 8mm fisheye. If you were in my vicinity at any point this weekend, odds are I took your picture.

Inspired by Kohta’s EYYC 2012 video, this BAC 2013 video shows a different side of the contest filled with friends, family, spirits, camaraderie, yoyoing, and kendama.
