April 28, 2017 By Steve Brown

Throw Revolution has announced the Zephyr II, a bi-metal version of their mono-metal budget yoyo released last year.

Expect the Zephyr II to throw heavy, play light, and spin for a loooong time!

Expect to see the Zephyr II at YoYoExpert.com soon. Check out specs and more photos below!

Throw Revolution Zephyr II Specs:

Finish: Smooth Beadblast

First Look – Throw Revolution Kaiser

March 9, 2017 By Steve Brown

Throw Revolution Kaiser yoyo

We’ve got a look at the newest release from World YoYo Champion Marcus Koh’s brand, Throw Revolution!

The Kaiser is a monometal yoyo made of 7075 aluminum, and designed to perform to Marcus’ exacting standards. His goal with the Kaiser was bi-metal performance in a monometal yoyo…not the easiest thing to accomplish, but we look forward to trying one and seeing how close he got. Check out Throw Revolution’s info below, along with more pics and full specs. The Kaiser is available March 14th at 8 pm SGT at the Throw Revolution store, and hits retailers soon after.

When the Kaiser was made, It was designed to bring out a Bi-metal performance in a mono-metal yo-yo. This Yo-Yo was made for the aspiring competitor, not just any competitor. But for the one who dares to be a champion.

We wanted a Yo-Yo that is able to comfortably return to your hands. This is an important aspect which is often overlooked, as it ensures that your next throw will always a good one. Specially for freestyles when you have to bind from a strong spin due to a music cue.

The Kaiser was designed with step curved Rims to rest perfectly on your hands.

The Kaiser needed to be a yo-yo that stands out. We experimented by introducing a new twist to the way its being anodized by giving it a raw finished cut around the hub of the Kaiser.

The end result was Stunning. It was a design that stood out immediately, which made the Kaiser uniquely identifiable.

With the Kaiser’s release approaching, we’re staying true to our company’s mission.

“To unleash the greatness in you, and provide the highest standards of excellence at ThrowRevolution.“

And you’ll be the first one to receive the “Revolutionary Experience”, a special 1-on-1 coaching session with Marcus Koh when you purchase a Kaiser today.

Throw Revolution Kaiser Specs:

Finish: Smooth Beadblast
Weight: 65.9g
Diameter: 56.11 mm
Width: 44.59 mm
Bearing: 10 Ball Concave
Price: $89 USD

Marcus Koh – Burst

March 29, 2016 By Steve Brown

2011 World YoYo Champion Marcus Koh has brought his new company, Throw Revolution, out swinging with a couple of nice releases and some great videos. Check out his latest, featuring exactly the kind of awesomeness that gets you a World title.

Yoyo used is the Throw Revolution Vertex.

YoYo Spotlight – Throw Revolution Vertex

March 16, 2016 By YoYoNews

ThrowRevolution Vertex

Throw Revolution Vertex Specs:

Diameter: 56.08mm
Width: 42.47mm
Weight: 65.3 grams
Response: 19mm pad
Bearing: Size C (.250 x .500 x .187)

The Vertex is the first yoyo from Throw Revolution, the new company from 2011 World YoYo Champion (and first champion ever from Singapore), Marcus Koh. The Vertex is very much designed to be a competition yoyo, and is easily one of the fastest playing yoyos we’ve ever laid our hands on.

PLAY

The Throw Revolution Vertex is incredibly fast, and incredibly stable. Those words get thrown around a lot when describing new yoyos, but few models earn it with the kind of ferocity the Vertex does…at times throwing the Vertex almost feels like trying to tame a wild animal. This yoyo is for experienced, serious competitors who are looking to squeeze every possible second out of their stage time. The slightly contoured V profile combined with the extraordinary weight distribution make the Vertex the perfect compliment to Throw Revolution owner Marcus Koh’s fast, technical play style and a must-have for any player looking to hit that level of speed and perfection. The distribution of weight from the stainless steel rims has clearly been well thought-out and agonized over during the design process, and the results are truly stunning.

Throw Revolution Vertex Profile

LOOKS

Available in solid blue or solid red, the Vertex keeps things simple with very basic engraving. But even simple can be wonderful, and the anodizing colors seem normal at first glance, but upon closer inspection are quite tough and incredibly rich. The blue has a high amount of purple mixed in, resulting in a richness and depth that is difficult to photograph and even more difficult to describe. In person the red teeters on the edge of the same color as fresh blood, no doubt drawn from underestimating the speed of the Vertex and cranking yourself in the face. Both colors are more stunning in person.

VALUE

The Throw Revolution Vertex retails for $180, and is not a casual purchase in price or in play value. The Vertex is a serious yoyo for serious competitors, and worth the investment if you’re a contest player who is chasing every possible advantage on stage. The Vertex is a beautifully made piece of equipment and while it’s expensive…it’s worth it.

BUY THE THROW REVOLUTION VERTEX

The Throw Revolution Vertex is available now through YoYoExpert.
