TimCor StarFire – Very Unique Player!

Sunday, July 24th, 2011

Looking for something one of a kind and completely different?!

Look no further then the new StarFire from TimCor!

Starfire YoYoExpert YoYo

What makes the StarFire immediately stand out is its powerful shape. The size is overall narrow in comparison to today’s modern throws but what this does is enable play of more intricate string tricks and especially 3A (Two Handed Sleeping Tricks) where you need something that can still hit the string you need without hitting the strings you don’t need to hit!

Starfire Profile

Play with this for a week and you will find your overall ability to hit technical tricks on any yo-yo will increase drastically.
