Is my Supernova a 7075 or 6061 version? It feels heavier than my Space Cowboy, maybe spins just as long and might even be more stable. I think I might like my Supernova better than my Space Cowboy but out of curiosity, I’ve always wondered if it was 7075 or 6061, it’s been bugging me just to know. It’s a blue with black splash. ![](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/yoyoexpert1/original/4X/d/8/0/d809154a33e1dc1f9b3864f88254e397eae1ca2e.jpeg) ---

I believe its a 2012+ model which were 6061. Pre-2012 were 7075 from what I can remember. ---

That’s a 2013 version - 6061 2012 were all 6061 except for the couple that were labeled as “made in USA 7075” 2011 were the first models that were all 7075 ---

Thanks guys. The one I have, supposedly 6061, is one of the best yoyos in my arsenal. I wouldn’t trade it for any other whether it’s older or newer with 7075 or not. ---
