MonkeyfingeR first hit the scene a little over a year ago with their Evil Yo. The Evil Yo was just about as crazy looking as a yo-yo could get while still actually resembling a yo-yo. The shape was completely alien and the colorways were so loud I am pretty sure the International Space Station could spot it from orbit. In short, I loved it. Whenever someone would ask me about it I would tell them it was like a British bulldog, so darn ugly that you just could not help but fall for it. It helped that the Evil Yo played amazingly well. Stepping forward a year and now we have the latest from MonkeyfingeR, the Gelada. The Gelada, named for a large and robust monkey, eschews some of the more out there design practices in exchange for a more traditional look. Whether this will change the perception of the company in the eyes of the community remains to be seen. Lets take a look at the Gelada and see what it has to offer.
