Tropic Spins Official Manufacturer's Thread

Tropic Spins presents: The Shipwreck! The Shipwreck is the second yoyo from Tropic Spins Yoyo Co. The Shipwreck is a yoyo that puts the “float” in floaty and the “rec” in recreational. With its unique double rim, it perfectly distributes the weight perfectly between out and in, creating the perfect feel.

Was going to get one but seems way to heavy for me

You can take my word for this one: don’t freak out.

That’s what my scale read, but on the string it feels about as heavy as a rally. The weight distribution gives the yoyo a more floaty feel, it’s also pretty fast too.

Can’t see the pics for some reason.

This should help.  :slight_smile:

Can’t wait :slight_smile:

Thanks for the IG link. That’s a chunky monkey right there! LOVE the aesthetic of it. I do worry that the very edge is going to be a bit sharp on the catch.

Naw, I’ve been throwing it for quite a bit and I haven’t hurt my hand at all! Tight binds are pretty nice, not too snaggy. Also, I have small hands, so bigger hands wouldn’t feel the runs as much haha :slight_smile:

Them rims look real clunky.

Of course it drops in December. My parents don’t let me buy stuff during December. Let’s get them to get me a Capricorn for Christmas  :smiley:
