Designed by 2024 Japan National Contest 4A Champion Koyo Hashimoto, the Cirrus is an offstring model built to support players at every stage of progression, from first throws to advanced competition play.
The Cirrus was developed around the core elements essential for strong offstring performance: spin power, stability, and maneuverability. Japan Technology carefully balanced the shape and weight distribution to create a yo-yo that feels stable and easy to control, especially for players still developing their offstring fundamentals. Smooth rotation, reduced wobble, and responsive movement all come together to make learning and improving feel natural.
At the same time, the Cirrus has the performance needed to grow alongside more advanced players. Every detail, from the body profile to the overall balance, was tuned to avoid excess while delivering dependable control through technical tricks and long routines.
Japan Technology also designed the Cirrus with long-term progression in mind. Because offstring setups often evolve as players learn new tricks and preferences, the stock setup was carefully chosen to work well with future adjustments to spacers, pads, and string combinations.
The Fugaku (PC) showcases how dramatically material selection can change the feel of a yo-yo, even while keeping the same overall shape and dimensions.
Developed alongside the POM version under the same core concept, the Fugaku (PC) pairs a machined polycarbonate body with stainless steel rims to create a completely distinct offstring experience. By carefully adjusting the design around the material composition, Japan Technology transformed the same platform into a model with its own unique personality and performance.
Built as a premium high-end offstring model, the Fugaku (PC) delivers a balanced combination of spin power, stability, maneuverability, and controlled rebound during drops. The heavier overall weight gives it a strong, commanding presence during play while still maintaining smooth movement and control through demanding tricks and high-pressure contest routines.
