These must be controlled and caught in the video).
Step 3: Film yourself and post on YouTube with the official YoYoExpert Loop 900 challenge title.
Step 4: Officially submit your video with order number to YoYoExpert

GET SEVERE – YOYOFACTORY NEW RELEASE

Thursday, June 24th, 2010

Professionals now require a yo-yo built to a new level of precision and spin dynamics. Enter YoYoFactory and their signature series collaboration with World Champion Tyler Severance. SEVERE is ready to leave its mark.

The 2009 SEVERE was a big hit and with 2010 they went bigger!

To bring the SEVERE into 2010 some big chances were made! First, high grade 7075 aluminum (the high grade metal used in the Superstar yo-yo) helps prevent the metal from flexing when the yo-yo is dropped. A slight shape and size change have given the new Severe an entirely new feel too! It is truly something unique from the YoYoFactory lineup.

LOOP 900 – OFFICIAL LAUNCH INFO

Wednesday, June 23rd, 2010

The yo-yo of the year is arriving! YoYoFactory presents an innovation that will change Double A (Two Hand Looping Style) forever!

Quoting YoYoFactory:

Our goal is a familiar one: Make the undeniable best. At entry level we feel we have achieved it. In high end single A yo-yos our record speaks to this also. 2A, we had introduced the loop720 as an intermediate level product but it lacked the high end focus required to satisfy the greats.

YoYoFactory went back to the design room. They contacted 2A players everywhere to find out what makes the PERFECT looping yo-yo. Taking everything they learned they created an amazing yo-yo with an innovative new technology:

The result is a sleek patent pending adjustment mechanism that is barely visible on investigation and invisible during play. It allows the user to register their gap settings.

Signature series of 10 time World Champion Shinji Saito this is without a doubt the best looping yo-yo to hit the market. This first run is made in the USA and is extremely limited – a restock will be months away.

OFFICIAL RELEASE TOMORROW
JUNE 24TH 8:00 PM EST / 5:00 PM PST


Check back later tonight for a special YoYoExpert Looping “Challenge” in conjunction with the Loop 900 Release!

One Drop Y-FACTOR

Monday, June 14th, 2010

The One Drop Y-Factor is a huge new release for One Drop Yo-Yos!

In preparing to evolve the One Drop product line and move on to different things the One Drop guys felt they needed a new undersized competition level performer at a decent price that takes all of their experience and knowledge into consideration. They went to eliminate any X factors (unknowns) so they are focusing on what they do know (the Y factors).

The result is their new yo-yo, the Y Factor. It is a synthesis of all of their previous work, current knowledge, and player preferences. In keeping with features they know work, the Y Factor is very agile due to the new profile, features a newly designed thumb grind lip, and comes with their proven bearing and response system.

Also available (and exclusive to YoYoExpert) is the “Green Haze” edition – a very limited purple-green acid wash finish! We only received 20 of these so act fast!
