Strand Specs Material： 6061+PC Weight： 66.2 g ± 0.5g Diameter： 55.70mm  Width:  49.06mm Gap: 4.54mm Bearing:   Concave  Axle: M4*10mm The release date of Strand is Feb 20th 8PM EST.Price: 49USD~54USD Fingerspin has been wildly popular recently. So for the concept of this project, we want to create a yoyo that can both do fingerspin and perform well at the same time. This concept might sound easy on paper but it is very hard to achieve. We have tried this before with yoyos like the paragraph and a monometal prototype. The paragraph is great at performance, but the locking mechanism and the...

Stingray Specs Material: 7068+SS Weight: 64+/-0.5g Diameter: 55.98mm Width: 48mm Gap width: 4.52mm Axle: M4*10mm Pads: 19.2*14.2*1.2mm Bearing: Concave   The release date of Stingray is Feb 6th, 8 PM EST.   The story and design of Stingray starts from the Koi. Koi is our organic monometal that combines the classic organic flowy, floaty feel with power and stability. To achieve the performance of the Koi, we used a unique center hub design that added weight for acceleration, a lot of rim weight for power and stability, high overall weight for even more enhanced power and stability.  In early 2023,...

Hypercut Specs Material: PC+SS Weight: 66.1+/-0.5g Diameter: 55.5mm Width: 46.5mm Gap width: 4.52mm Axle: M4*8mm Pads: 19.2*14.2*1.2mm Bearing: Concave   The release date of Hypercut is Jan 15th 8PM EST. The yoyofriends cut series has always been about high performance yoyos at a lower budget, in their perspective material construction. In the cut series, we have the monometal shortcut and ultracut, titanium crosscut and the bimetal papercut.  As early as 2021, yoyofriends has been thinking about doing a hybrid yoyo. The concept never came into fruition due to lack of experience with design and manufacturing.   In 2024 we are dedicated...

Ultracut Specs Weight: 64.94 grams Material: Aluminum Alloy 6061      Diameter: 58mm Width: 50mm Gap width: 4.54mm Axle: M4*8mm Pads: 19.2*14.2*1.2mm Bearing: Concave Bearing   Price: 35USD~40USD Release Date：Nov 22nd 8PM EST worldwide Every yoyoyofriends' yoyo has its intended objective, and ultracut is no different. For this yoyo we looked at the trend of the current competitive yoyoing scene. The yoyos are getting wider as players requires more catch zone for their zoning tricks. The recent optimal competition widths are around 50mm. We think we can create a high quality and budget friendly 50mm width yoyo. A yoyo that can excel...

The brainstorming of this yoyo started back in mid 2023, along with papercut for the 2024 anniversary yoyo. We first begin looking at different types of bimetal yoyos. Immediately the inner ring yoyo and outer ring yoyo come to mind. We have made a lot of inner ring yoyos already like the Vulture and Overclock. We also made...
