Yoyo Review: Duncan Freehand 2 - Plastic isn’t dead!

Saturday, June 26th, 2010

We all now know that the high-end metal yo-yo industry is more saturated than ever. Gone are the days where we would see 1 metal bring released for every 3-4 plastic yo-yos made. Nowadays, the industry has changed, with more people having access to aluminum and machining tools becoming more affordable than plastic molds, metal yo-yos are popping up almost every other week, while plastics now take close to 1-2 months to make an appearance!

Obviously there are a lot of good things to say about the recent releases of metal yo-yos in the market, both in terms of quality, affordability, and performance…but that does not mean that plastics are in any way bad at all.

With companies like YoyoFactory pushing the limits of the plastic yo-yo with their “Death To Metal” campaign, and Duncan recently investing their R&D into the new Freehand 2 and other projects, which we hear is extremely promising, we take a step back, and took out a plastic from our stash, gave it to two of the best Single A players in Singapore, and see what they thought about it.

Featured Yo-Yo Review: YoyoFactory SuperStar

Sunday, May 30th, 2010

Back in 2008, when we first heard about a yo-yo that could maintain its horizontal balance without tipping easily, we were pretty skeptical. We had to see it for ourselves to believe that this was possible. Upon the arrival of this yo-yo to our store, we whipped one out and gave it a spin.

We were immediately hooked.

The SuperStar, possibly the second most popular metal to roll of YoyoFactorys product line

This yo-yo we are referring to, of course, is the YoyoFactory SuperStar, one of the most popular yo-yo to roll off YoyoFactory’s product line.

Today, we have taken this mighty beast out for a second test run, to see what makes it the second most popular yo-yo next to YoyoFactory’s 888.
