Are You?????
YoyoFactory’s latest yo-yo, the Hectic, has made it to our store!!! This new metal yo-yo, just like the One Drop M1, offers metal high-end performance and budget prices!!!
Initially, when we went through the list of yo-yos we thought would make good in our “Old but stil Fresh” article, we weren’t sure if the Freehand 1 would fit into this category.
After all, the Freehand 1’s design still lives in today’s Freehand Zero, with minor alterations that’s all. But after much consideration, we decided that to NOT put this yo-yo in our hall of fame would be taboo…
Besides, the Freehand 1, in our opinion, was the yo-yo that opened doors to the next wave of new-gen yo-yos.
Our new batch of Yomegas are in, including Brains, Brain XPs and the highly-in-demand Yomega Yo-Yo Bags!
THAT’S RIGHT!!! We’re bringing in limited edition Spingear Dark Magics and because stocks are limited, they will DISAPPEAR before you know it!!!
Thus, if you would like to purchase one of these lovely babies, simply go to the contact page and put under “Subject” the words “SPINGEAR DARKMAGIC“, then key in how many you would like to reserve and we would get back to you with purchasing and shipping details once they have arrived!!!
Spingear Dark Magics:
Webstore: USD$64.90*, SGD$99.00*

It’s probably one of the most basic things you need to learn before you get going with yo-yoing, but a lot of new players are still unsure of how to tie a proper knot for their yo-yo.
This tutorial will hopefully be able to enlighten our future yo-yo masters on how its done. =)
