Re-posted from YoYoFactory Blog – sick video by Team YoYoFactory member Vashek Kroutil! Love his style.
Even though it was -10C, Vashek would rather go out filming than working on his final paper for university. And we are glad he took a break. Another great video from a great player!

We just got back from Toy Fair (pictures coming soon) where YoYoFactory got featured by one of the top sources in electronic news!
Engadget did a great piece on YoYoFactory at the New York Toy Fair this week. Ben McPhee shows off the Hyper Scanner gets close to 7,000 RPM. Looks like another office RPM contest is in order once they get back from Toy Fair.

Check out this fun video from Augie Fash featuring his signature series the Cayalyst!
Quote from Augie:
I toured with the YoyoFactory Catalyst all across Europe for 2 weeks. Some of the best players in the world got a chance to throw it, in some of the most beautiful places I’ve ever seen.
John Chow is a player with some amazing style and elegance when it comes to tricks. His stuff is insanely fast and fluent leaving other contestants with their jaws wide open.
YoYoFactory proudly presents John Chow!
And John Chow’s weapon of choice? The MONSTER!

The Chico Yo-Yo Company is back with two awesome and very different releases! A Yo-Yo AND a Spin Top - both made in the USA!
Their new throw the Kestrel is slightly undersized making for a quick, swift and nimble moving yo-yo. Inspired by the lightweight raptor that can hover in nearly no wind, the Kestrel excels at horizontal play beyond your expectations of an undersized yo-yo.
And Chico’s new spin top is custom machined from delrin designed for competitive spin top play. Body and cap screw apart for easy access to the bearing assembly (and storage of your string and button), and a one-way bearing insert will be available in the near future!
Find them both on the YoYoExpert Chico Yo-Yo Company page:
