A **un-responsive** C-size bearing and precision-machined POM body give the Tempest a smooth, controlled feel with a character all its own. When Alchemik was founded, our focus was on titanium and other premium metals. Over time, we realized that exceptional design isn’t tied to any one material. The Tempest reflects that philosophy, bringing the Tyrant platform into POM without compromising the performance or attention to detail that defines every Alchemik release. Machined from Delrin (POM-H), one of the finest engineering plastics available, the Tempest combines impressive stiffness, strength, and wear resistance with a naturally low-friction surface. The result is a throw that feels uniquely planted in play, offering a satisfying balance between the warmth of plastic and the precision of metal. The Tempest made its debut at the 2026 National Yo-Yo Contest, where players immediately put it through its paces. The response was overwhelmingly positive, confirming the Tempest earns its place alongside its metal brothers. > **[The Tempest - POM Yoyo — Alchemik Yoyos](https://www.alchemikyoyos.com/shop/p/the-tempest)** > > Discover the Alchemik Tempest, a precision-machined POM yo-yo featuring the proven Tyrant profile, responsive C-bearing, and smooth, durable performance. ---

Thanks Collin! I’m so happy you found this! This is such a fun trick with that CW. We also just got back from family camping, and we got tons of footage of the Tempest. In the process of cutting up clips right now 😁 I’ll try and get some clips of it up too in the meantime while we edit this new footage, which we are soooo excited to share with everyone! Got so much good stuff, and really put this throw to the test. That pom don’t mess around! ---
