Their first release borrows its name from the Central and North American hobgoblin called the Chupacabra, whose name literally translates into “goat sucker”. I am glad they used the actual name instead of the translation… I would have a hard time telling non-yoyo players that I am throwing a Goat Sucker. When talking about the yo-yo to company owner Ryan Jacobs, he told me he wanted an angular yo-yo similar to the Japanese designs that had a distinct focus on speed. In his own words he said, “it is meant to fly through the air”. Let’s see if he nailed it on this freshman effort. **Link to High Speed YoYo reviews has been removed. URL has been hijacked** ---

Nice review. Your reviews always want to make me pick up what ever you’re reviewing. That yoyo is absolutely STUNNING. The shape is just so… perfect. I wish I could get my hands on one. ---

I wish I could get my hands on one. I agree. I got one in my secret santa, a limited edition one from Ryan Jacobs himself, and it is phenomonal. ---

I’ve heard good things about this yoyo. I would love to try it for myself! Seems like a winner from what I’ve heard.
