The yo-yo of the year is arriving! YoYoFactory presents an innovation that will change Double A (Two Hand Looping Style) forever!
Friday March 18th 8:00 PM EST here at YoYoExpert the Loop 900 is being release and it has been well worth the wait!!!
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.
All Loop 900 come with a YoYoFactory “key” to precisely adjust the Loop 900 gap setting.
WOW! Just check out this AMAZING Loop 900 video – shows that with enough practice you can really pull off some amazing stuff! Player is Takeshi Maruyama from Team YoYoFactory and Shaqler!
Check out the link above to view all the current entries! Congrats to each one on developing some sick skills and earning $15 to YoYoExpert at the same time!
Hopefully a Loop 900 restock is in our near future – but we will wait for official word from YoYoFactory!
And in case you missed it and are looking to go above and beyond the basic loops get some true National and World Champion advice with the new Two Handed Looping DVD: So You Think You Can Yo-Yo?!
Double A also known as 2A is arguably the style of play that takes more practice then any division! Few ever even earn the “rank” of being able to do Two Handed Loops! Well we want to see that change today and we challenge you!
How it works: Step 1: Purchase a pair of Loop 900s from YoYoExpert.com (Keep your order number since you will need this). Step 2: LEARN. Practice looping – first with one hand then the other. Then put it together until you can do Two Handed Loops! Practice, practice, practice until you can do 20 with each hand AT THE SAME TIME! (That Means 20 Two Handed Loops – each hand doing 20 repetitions either at the same time or alternating. 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
Challenge opens for submissions next week and submissions can continue to be submitted until August 31st. That gives you TWO MONTHS!
COMPLETE THE CHALLENGE AND YOU GET:
-A Free $15 GIFT CERTIFICATE to use at YoYoExpert.com!
-Your picture and video is linked from our “official” Loop 900 Challenge page to show the world you are one of the few elite who can now do “Double A”.

Insert the tool in the side of the yo-yo and turn counter clock-wise increases the gap. Clockwise turns make the gap smaller. Spacer modifications are still possible, but are largely obsolete with the stock YoYofactory designed spacers.
