Introducing Yoyofficer Lava

Imp was one of our most popular designs and great choice for faster and technical competitive play. But we thought it could play even better, so we created Lava!

We kept similar specification, it’s still lighter (65,6 g), midsized (54mm) and not extremely wide (43 mm) yo-yo. Shape is also pretty close, but step next to gap is now more prominent, giving Lava more H-shape look.  
Biggest change comes with weight distribution. With new cup design based on Jaeger, Lava don’t just play better than Imp, it also offers completely different feel than its predecessor.

We changed and improved many things from Imp on Lava, but we kept price, just 39,9 USD.

Lava will be available in 6 acid wash finishes, with blasted surface.

I have two IMP’s - that is how good that little beast is. Its small-size and superb performance makes it a great carry throw. I have one at work for speedy practice time.

If the Lava is better performing; then I can’t wait to get mine.

The Lava looks really nice. Excited to get mine. 😃

Are there pictures of the Musket anywhere? Unless I’m just completely missing them (which is entirely possible), I haven’t seen any anywhere.

uring april Yoyofficer celebrates its second anniversary, so it’s appropriate to release second new model - Musket!

With Musket, we wanted to create similar yo-yo to Hatchet - full-sized, powerful, suitable for range of styles and great for contests. But while Hatchet utilizes modern sharp shape with multiple steps, Musket is complete opposite. It combines rounded rims with V-shape, offering great comfort, yet opens enough to provide large catch zone needed for contests.

Musket is also first Yoyofficer yo-yo with grooved catch zone to provide even better grinding possibilities.

Specification  
Diameter: 55 mm  
Width: 44 mm  
Weight 66,6 g

If you are looking for great competitive throw, but modern sharp shapes are not your cup of tea and you want something more comfortable, Musket is excellent choice. And you can get it just for 44,9 USD!

Available in 6 acid wash finishes, with blasted surface.
