Yoyo Factory has come up with a system that works; so well in fact, that they have carried their system through both plastics and metals. This is the FAST system that is used in the Speed Dial and Adjust-O-Matic.

Duncan Mayhem: Slick Like Butter

Saturday, October 24th, 2009

Very seldom do we see the words “High Performance Metals” and “Duncan” come together in the same sentence. Normally when one thinks of the brand, we’d conjure thoughts of its huge heritage, the era of the Freehand 1, as well as it’s range of decent plastic yo-yos these days that cater to both beginners and professionals alike.

However, with the release of the Screaming Eagle brand, Duncan aims to bring to the table its own mix of high-performance metals (there you go! All that in one sentence!) in order to step up its game in the metal yo-yo circle.

Today we look at one of Duncan’s first few High Performance Metals, the Mayhem, which has so far been one of the best things to come out of Duncan’s factory since the Freehand 1.

What is Your Yo-Yo Setup???

Saturday, October 17th, 2009

There have been many times where yo-yo players have come up to the store, or asked around other kids how they set up their yo-yos.

As we all know, different people play different types of styles and have different setups for different yo-yos which they own.

Different people set up their yo-yos differently, what is YOUR setup???

So you’ve been playing for awhile now, and your current yo-yos are that of the Super Yo-Yo or Yomega Brain line up.

It’s time to take it to the next level with some hardcore tricks!

BUT…you’re low on budget, metal yo-yos cost a lot of money, and yo-yos like the Dark Magic, Speeder, New Breed etc are not exactly cheap either.

FRET NOT!

Spinworkx takes a look at 3 decent YoyoJam plastics that are not only extremely good performers, they also cost just SGD$25.00!!!

So a lot of you are familiar with the KonKave bearing and how it works, what it does and how it improves performance.

Taking Professional Plastics to Another Level *Video Inside!*

Saturday, September 19th, 2009

So we’ve touched on both the FAST 201 and Velocity already.

As previously mentioned, the FAST 201 is a basic yo-yo from YoyoFactory aimed at beginners seeking to learn basic tricks as well as test their skills in what is referred to as the FAST Challenge.

The Velocity, on the other hand, took the FAST system to a whole new level and offers players the ability to learn the basics right up to professional tricks using the same yo-yo.

The Plastic Grind Machine is YoyoFactory’s flagship professional high-end plastic yo-yo. Aimed at professional play, the PGM for short, is probably one of the best high-end plastics to date, offering professional play with a price that’s undeniably good!
