Roppo marks Shuriken’s inaugural venture into a performance-driven monometal design, following the Juji (known for its oversized, robust build) and the Senban (renowned for its slimline profile). Featuring a distinctive V-shaped, it carries a modest weight of 65.3g and spans a width of 46.8mm. The Roppo showcases versatility, offering adept stability and nimbleness for a wide array of tricks.
The name “Roppo” pays homage to the Roppo Shuriken, a six-pointed Hira-shuriken. Its understated logo is meticulously etched near the hub area. Diego Berini has also lent his signature touch with a custom colorway, complete with his logo elegantly engraved in close proximity to the hub.
I got a Roppo B-Grade and it’s really nice. The “flaw” was the green fade went a little higher on one half than the other. It’s very smooth and very stable. $38 is an absolute steal.
