[![Bandalore_Feature](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/yoyoexpert1/original/4X/7/f/e/7fee64541b8ac24d6574f2fb8ad6cf12e0323ab0.jpeg)](https://shop.yoyoexpert.com/collections/new-releases/products/bandalo-re-yoyo-by-bandalore?variant=45321279635646) The [BANDALO:RE](https://shop.yoyoexpert.com/collections/new-releases/products/bandalo-re-yoyo-by-bandalore?variant=45321279635646) draws its name from the earliest roots of yo-yo history. Long before the term “yo-yo” was popularized, the word bandalore was used in Europe between the 17th and 19th centuries to describe a simple spinning toy—two wooden discs connected by an axle with a string wound around it. This early design would eventually evolve into the modern yo-yo we know today. Inspired by this history, [BANDALORE](https://shop.yoyoexpert.com/collections/new-releases/products/bandalo-re-yoyo-by-bandalore?variant=45321279635646) set out to create a yo-yo that bridges the past and present. Their vision was to merge the classic feel of old-world design with the performance of modern innovation. Drawing influence from their favorite modern throw—the SF YoYos DK—they crafted a design that captures both tradition and evolution in one.

Really want to try one of these. I had a DK that I loved but I had to be completely in the zone to actually hit any tricks with it. This looks a little more user friendly. ---
