Duncan Hornet
The Hornet is a bearing looper designed with a better rim-to-center weight ratio making it a great choice for high-speed looping and wraps. Designed with input from Duncan Crew Worldwide, the Hornet is player-tested and competition-ready.
The Hornet comes with two sets of spacers; aluminum for beginner/intermediate looping and plastic for more advanced competition play. As with most looping yo-yos, we do recommend using a thick lube on the bearing to keep a higher level of response.

Smoothest hornet yet, I didn't know why but it just pops harder and hits loops better than my others - I must know what string they set this up with!!!

When I was a kid in the 80's my favorite yoyo was the Duncan Professional. I had to fill out an order form and mail it off to Duncan with some cash to get it, and I loved that thing. It played like nothing else back then. The Hornet is the closest thing I could find to my old Pro, and I love it almost as much.
The Hornet plays a lot like I remember the Pro, only smoother, faster, and with a much longer spin time. The only difference, for me anyway, is the bearing system. Back in the day I would twist the yoyo to tighten the string for effortless loops. On a bearing, I just need to adapt my throw to get the same effect. It's a little more work, but not so much you notice.
All in all, this is a really nice yoyo, especially for the price.
