HSPIN releases and activity in 2010 – part 1 of 2 – This news is huge, Jesse Drake emailed us to make sure we didn’t miss it, he says “That is news you shouldn’t miss! A Magleeto Signature? “ICON” ? BAYSICK! GORYILLA!”
Gorylla 411 – Let’s start with the brand new stuff, the Gorylla 411… is a piece of precision and collaboration inside the NETWORK. The first prototypes were shown around during Worlds 2008 in three ball bearing configurations. Gaberus was one of the loudest proponents of this yoyo and demanded it to be released with a 4mm gap. We gave it our brand new Axle&Response system 2.0 (plastic-steel hybrid low friction bearing, 4mm gap, slim stickers, siliconable recess) and adjusted weight slightly.
Weight ~66g
Width 40.5mm
Diameter 52mm
Price under 100 USD
Beys!ck – HSPIN has developed and teamed up with another manufacturer outside Switzerland to bring to you very affordable good quality yoyos. We refer to these yoyos as the “Core Series” yoyos. The BeySick is one of the current favorites of the our players since our meeting in London in November 2009.
Brace yourself: This top player will be available for USD 59, and will also be released during EYYC 2010 in Prague.
Weight:~ 65g
Diameter 52mm
Width 41.5m
*3yo3 Collaboration with John Higby! - This is breaking news in a email from 3yo3 owner Landon Balk - Hey Josh & Kirby, & the rest of SBL’s epic crew-
Recently I teamed up w/ John Higby, and we’re going to be releasing a collab of 20 clear proflies-
I’ve bearingized them using Duncan guts, with a clean STAINLESS bearing, added a nice fat & wide flow groove with clear RTV, and O-ring weights, while Higby’s gone and painted them. They’ll have “3yo3 special pogs” that Higby is going to paint as well.
And that’s about it. Hopefully Kirby will show up for the show next week. Please send an email to stringburnlive@gmail.com to scold Kirby for missing the show.
