Introducing the Dedweight Pro — a competition-grade counterweight with bearing
We’re incredibly excited to finally introduce the Dedweight Pro. This has been about six months in the making, and it’s a real honor to start sharing it with you.
The Dedweight Pro began as a response to a simple request from our community: a counterweight with a bearing. That’s what drove us to create our first competition-focused counterweight precisely designed for peak performance. Every detail exists for a reason. The smooth and contoured string holes allow the counterweight to slide cleanly up and down the string. This design is optimal for bead work and bead-based tricks.
At its core, the Dedweight Pro features an A bearing, giving your string a break and opening the door to more fluid slack movements without twisting yourself up. With the bearing installed, the total weight lands precisely at 10g—right on the spot for control, balance, and consistency. Each Dedweight Pro is made from our signature tough resin, built to last for years, and finished with an all-natural beeswax that’s hand-polished into every piece. A lot of care goes into each one, and you’ll feel it the moment you start playing.
The response to the early models has already been overwhelming, and we’re beyond excited to see what the wider community thinks. Snag the very first batch of the Dedweight Pro and step into a new era of Dedhed Designs counterweights—dropping this Friday.
