We constantly strive to make the most premium and competition-ready yo-yos.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhere better to start than our first release, the Hummingbird? The Hummingbird is a bird that has lightning fast speeds; a unique hum when it flaps its wings, not dissimilar to a spinning yo-yo; and the special ability to conserve its energy to travel and migrate across vast distances. We named the yo-yo after the Hummingbird as we were inspired by the bird’s extraordinary characteristics. Since its release, the Hummingbird has been lauded as one of the best bimetals ever made due to its jet-fast play akin to a Hummingbird travelling across the Gulf, easy maneuverability like a hovering Hummingbird and beautiful aesthetic. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWe decided to make a premium titanium bimetal based on the Hummingbird as we wanted to improve on the existing design. We pushed our machines and made the walls of the yo-yo even thinner than the aluminium Hummingbird, at 0.5 mm which is the lowest limit for titanium, allowing for extreme weight distribution. As with most titanium-stainless steel (TiSS) yo-yos, making a smooth yo-yo is a big challenge - but we managed to consistently achieve smoothness with the press-fit stainless steel rims which are machined to precise tolerances. As a result, the yo-yo properties are even closer to the extraordinary characteristics of the Hummingbird species.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTISS hummingbird has the play of hummingbird but with enhanced titanium feel and more power, a yoyo meant to be played on that can handle all your hardest and longest combos.

Titanium is a popular material for yoyo construction, but it comes with a significant cost, making it less accessible for many people.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn order to make a titanium yoyo that is more affordable and enjoyable, the yoyofriends team decided to create a mini undersized yoyo. The first prototype was based on the Alliance and featured a diameter of 44.5mm with Koi's inner cup, as well as a groove on the outer rim design for aesthetics.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTo make the yoyo truly accessible to everyone, yoyofriends reached out to André from Yoyoexpert to collaborate on the design. Wanting to incorporate elements of their most successful model, the Hummingbird, the team worked to create a yoyo that was both fun and unique.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAfter two months of testing from the yoyofriends players and Yoyoexpert, the team realized that the yoyo needed more power, so they increased the overall weight of the yoyo and optimized the design with inspiration from the original design. Through this process, two prototypes emerged: a 37mm design with straight rims, and a 39mm design with more rounded rims. After further testing, the 39mm design proved to be the standout. It was more comfortable to catch, slightly more powerful, and it featured a unique weight distribution with the rounded rims.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe team's goal was to make a titanium yoyo more accessible to everyone and spread the characteristics of titanium and other materials. With the completion of this project, they believe that they have achieved that goal. The artwork for the project, TiNY, depicts the yoyo being worked on in a lab in a petri dish, which serves as a reminder of how long the project took and how many tests it had been through until the final production.   \u003c!-- split --\u003e Small Titanium YoYo!  \u003c!-- split --\u003e \u003cimg alt=\"TiNY by yoyofriends\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0748\/4967\/files\/Banner-TiNY-YoYoFriends_2048x2048.jpg?v=1681826516\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\" data-mce-src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0748\/4967\/files\/Banner-TiNY-YoYoFriends_2048x2048.jpg?v=1681826516\"\u003e \u003c!-- split --\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ctable class=\"stats\" cellspacing=\"0\"\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDiameter:\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e44.50 mm \/ 1.75 inches\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWidth:\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e39.00 mm \/ 1.54 inches\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eGap Width:\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e4.47 mm \/ 0.18 inches\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWeight:\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e60.95 grams\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBearing Size:\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSize C (.250 x .500 x .187)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eResponse:\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\"Slim Pad\" Size 19mm OD\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMaterial:\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eTitanium\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDesigned in:\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eChina\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMade in:\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eChina\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eReleased:\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eApril 2023\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n    \u003c!-- split --\u003e \u003cimg alt=\"TiNY by yoyofriends\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0748\/4967\/files\/Featured-TiNY-YoYoFriends_480x480.jpg?v=1681826756\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\" data-mce-src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0748\/4967\/files\/Featured-TiNY-YoYoFriends_480x480.jpg?v=1681826756\"\u003e\u003chr\u003e\u003cimg alt=\"TiNY by yoyofriends\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0748\/4967\/files\/TiNYbyyoyofriends_480x480.webp?v=1681829264\" data-mce-src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0748\/4967\/files\/TiNYbyyoyofriends_480x480.webp?v=1681829264\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e \u003c!-- split --\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0748\/4967\/files\/TiNYbyyoyofriends-2_480x480.webp?v=1681829352\" alt=\"TiNY by yoyofriends\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\" data-mce-src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0748\/4967\/files\/TiNYbyyoyofriends-2_480x480.webp?v=1681829352\"\u003e","brand":"yoyofriends","offers":[{"title":"Multi Color Fade Splash","offer_id":42652270788798,"sku":"FRIENDS_TINY-4","price":160.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"Green w\/ Splash and Engraving","offer_id":42652270133438,"sku":"FRIENDS_TINY-3","price":150.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0748\/4967\/products\/Icon-TiNY-YoYoFriends.jpg?v=1681826436"},{"product_id":"da-vinci-yoyo-by-yoyofriends","title":"Da Vinci","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe Da Vinci by yoyofriends is a signature yo-yo model designed with specific preferences in mind.

The hollow SS rims—an engineering first for YoYoFriends—shift weight distribution to maximize spin time, improve float, and boost control, especially in horizontal play. Despite its wide 50mm body and a bold 58mm diameter, the Netrunner remains nimble and fast, never sacrificing acceleration or agility.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe dimensions are modeled after the fan-favorite Ultracut, maintaining the ease of landing complex zoning tricks and long combos, while amplifying performance with a more advanced material setup.

Designed for peak stability, excellent control, and extreme consistency, it hits every metric a top-level competitor could ask for.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePrototype testing revealed exceptional results. YoYoFriends players James Heder and Stephen Madden both switched to the Netrunner during its development phase, taking it to the stage at PNWR and beyond—with Stephen qualifying for finals with a nearly flawless prelim and James placing 7th in his first 3-minute freestyle. Since then, James went on to win the Northeast Regional (NER) 1A Finals using the Netrunner, further solidifying its status as a true competition machine.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe sleek, understated aesthetic hides its competition-ready core. The hollow stainless steel rims give it an elegant profile while packing the performance necessary to dominate on stage.

Inspired by team member Yahoo (Hy Dang), who requested a yo-yo even wider than the Ultracut, YoYoFriends set out to push the boundaries of competition design while staying true to their core philosophy—make the yo-yos players need to succeed.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAfter countless discussions and testing, the team landed on the perfect specs: 57mm diameter with a massive 53mm width. This combination gives the Armageddon a commanding presence on the string, making zoning and body tricks more accessible, while still maintaining balance for intricate tech play. Performance was the top priority, and YoYoFriends fine-tuned every detail to make it shine. The simple V-shaped profile delivers blistering speed and acceleration, while the convex parabola hub ensures ideal weight placement above the axle. Thanks to the use of premium 7068 aluminum, the walls could be made thinner, allowing for exceptionally thick rims—maximizing spin power, stability, and control without feeling clunky.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThrough three full prototype stages, the design was sharpened to perfection: edges smoothed for comfort, weight optimized at 66.1g, and rim weight distribution carefully rebalanced.

As competition yoyos trend heavier and wider, the philosophy behind Tachyon remains focused on something different: pure speed, rapid acceleration, and lightweight control.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003eThe original Tachyon earned its reputation through a low center weight design, a V and H hybrid profile for added stability, and an ultra light overall build. Tachyon II preserves that core identity while updating the specifications for today’s play.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003eWeight was carefully targeted at around 62 grams to keep the play fast. The proven low center hub design remains unchanged, maintaining a light and highly responsive feel through the middle. Width has been increased to 48mm, improving competition performance while preserving the quick, agile character that defines the series.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003eTo enhance stability during sustained high speed play, diameter and rim weight were slightly increased. The result is a more controlled, confident experience in both vertical and horizontal speed combinations. The gap has also been widened to 4.52mm to accommodate thicker string and deliver a clean, reliable bind.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003eExtensively tested by the yoyofriends team, Tachyon II proved to be more powerful and stable than its predecessor while retaining its signature quickness. While absolute peak acceleration was tuned slightly for balance, overall stability and high speed confidence improved significantly.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003eTachyon II stands as the ultimate lightweight speed focused model in the yoyofriends lineup.
