# GOPA:

 ![GOPA-Black-1_1024x1024](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/yoyoexpert1/original/4X/1/3/5/13504ebe047b762378a1f747d6f6c5d41ae57f7f.webp) ![GOPA-Black-2_1024x1024](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/yoyoexpert1/original/4X/c/9/d/c9dfe6878395e04b9eedd7369513f84db097dbf0.webp)

The GOPA is built for casual play with a shape inspired by classic yoyo designs. The large diameter paired with a narrow width and light weight is reminiscent of an era when metal yo-yos were just becoming available on the market. It plays fast and agile with just enough stability. Infused with Yoyorecreation’s design know-how, it has the perfect balance of modern performance and classic feel!

Designed in Japan & made in the USA!

FYFO stands for “First YoYo From Oregon” because this is the first YYR model to be machined in the USA! This sleek mono-metal design has a comfortable rounded v-shape profile with a powerful spin and excellent stability. The body is designed to be minimal yet slightly oversized to create a light feel on the string and inspire confidence through any routine.

Designed in Japan & made in the USA!

I guess GOPA sounds like 58 in Japanese, and it is 58mm and 58 grams.

The GOPA Slices, @sakatuca demonstrates the profile with a beautiful POV perspective.

Can’t believe people are sleeping on the GOPA, this one truly shreds at 58 grams. Another @sakatuca repeater for proof. Is it a price tag thing? its inline with any A-RT and it has a DS bearing as well, mine are crazy smooth and more than capable.

I agree 100% defiantly remind me of an Art design. Considering buying a second one.

The Gopacabana. Been there for a while now. It’s one of the hottest spots north of Havana. Where music and passion are always the fashion. At the Gopacabana.

A welcome addition to the Panorama/Diorama family. Lots of extra levels of fun unlocked.

I would positively jump on something close to a similar design/form factor with side effects. I know I’d love a GOPA with discs after spending so much time with a disced MMBC.

Still though, GOPA finds a permanent home in my collection. I’d probably grab another if they released a YYE or Nearly Nagel splash.
