PopCast Yo-Yo Vlog: What's inside a Doblé yo-yo?

[DocPop]

In honor of #FixedAxleFebruary, here’s an episode about one of my favorite fixed-axle yo-yos in my collection

PopCast: The Doble Yo-Yo and #fixedaxlefriday

OMG throwback! I have a burl Calypso that John also jeweled in the brass sides. Thanks for sharing and keeping the Doble story out there.

[DocPop]

I’d love to see a photo of that if possible. It sounds interesting.

So, I pulled it out and it’s actually an Ariel. Guts look the same however.

Delightful video!

Thanks for clearing that up…

All these years I just thought Doble’ was French for Double stuffing.

[Shwa]

Thanks for that little bit history, Doc!

[DocPop]

Wow, this is great. Thanks for the photo. It even has their patented leather finger sleeve.

[jblack]

Oh snap - I’ll have to pull out my RevG with their “finger guard” - can’t recall if that was patented. Were there any other weird finger saver devices?

[DocPop]

I’ve seen others, but I think Doblé were the only ones with a patent.
