This is overdue. A year ago, I picked up a new in package MVP in a trade. I have been enjoying it off and on and have wanted to fit it into my review schedule when a gap came up. Well I don’t get gaps often. This week, I was supposed to review the TMBR [...]
sOMEThING is Japan’s latest yo-yo brand presented by the world famous Japanese yo-yo store YoYoAddict owned and operated by world champion player Hiroyuki Suzuki. The Superfly is the first in the line, and features a design with appeal to a broad range of players.
Superfly is a mid sized aluminum yo-yo with an inward curved, open feeling profile which allows for fantastic stability and a good size catch zone. This yo-yo was created to play fast and smooth while maintaining a great balance for a wide variety of tricks, both vertical and horizontal.
Superfly is equipped with a large CBC Center Trac Bearing and YYF silicone response pads for tight binds. It is a well rounded yo-yo for those unwilling to compromise on quality. With Superfly, sOMEThING is off to a great start, and we’re looking forward to seeing the next yo-yo that they have to offer!
Recreational Revolution is a California based company which focuses on creating high quality yo-yos at reasonable prices. A first from this company and in the world of 2A, the Reverb is a delrin manufactured looping yo-yo.
Delrin is a high tech plastic used in mechanical and electrical engineering, and several delrin butterfly yo-yos are already on the market. However, this is the first time its amazing durability and stability has been brought to the world of looping yo-yos. The Reverb is aptly named; we can only hope that the implications of this revolutionary design will reverberate throughout the 2A world.
The RecRev Reverb is a yo-yo built to last: it has a solid body without delicate caps to pop off, and durable steel threads which are also interchangeable. The Reverb features a hollowed out inner wall, to reduce friction during sleep, and starburst inspired pads that protrude from the inner wall, giving the Reverb an excellent response.
2009 World Champion Kentaro Kimura is one of the most talented names in yo-yoing. His company known as Turning Point is responsible for innovating the “K-Pad” response now the industry standard. His first yo-yo the Leviathan quickly became a legend in yo-yo play and is now reborn in machined Delrin!
These yo-yos are built wide and very stable which makes for an incredible playing experience. Machined to absolute perfection in Japan every attention to design detail is here. Every curve, the positioning of weight, the precisely designed axle system has been carefully thought out and implemented impeccably for a truly unique yo-yo.
You are never too old to enjoy yo-yos. If you have never been to a yo-yo contest, you will be really impressed.

I loved the YoYoJam Kickside. It had a classic shape that really complemented a casual players throw style. One of my favorite things about the Kickside was how durable it was. That yo-yo could take a beating. I always thought that the high impact celcon body made the Kickside great for 5a, especially for a [...]
