Bernardo Peixoto is one of the smoothest players out there, and Onda, his signature model with MK1 YoYos, was built to match that reputation. The name means “wave” in Portuguese, a fitting nod to the Brazilian player it was made for, and it shows up in the yo-yo’s sweeping shape, a profile that flows from one curve to the next rather than settling into hard angles. Machined from 7075 aluminum and paired with One Drop’s Side Effects axle system, Onda was designed around one central question: how do you make something feel comfortable in the hand while still hitting hard on the throw?
That balance between comfort, durability, and performance drove every decision. Bernardo chose 7075 aluminum combined with Side Effects specifically to build something durable enough for genuine everyday carry, able to handle constant use without losing that solid, reliable feel in play. The colorways lean into fluid, dynamic themes pulled from nature and beyond, the ocean, lava, space, and air, each one exploring movement, depth, and the way different elements flow and interact, echoing the wave theme baked into the name and shape.
The result is minimal and comfortable to hold, yet purposeful and powerful the moment it hits the string. This is Bernardo’s own vision of what an everyday throw should feel like, built to go wherever you go. Pick your element and ride the wave.
