The UNPRLD ReCognition returns in some classic and new colors! :fire::fire::fire:
**From UNPRLD:** Colin Beckford has been a player at the center of pushing competitive yo-yoing through SCALES. He understands better than anyone the importance of the perfectly designed competition yo-yo. His first signature yo-yo the Cognition was primarily based on the UNPRLD Ignition with a more stretched out profile that increases trick execution capabilities and stability. Weighing in on the heavier side at 67 grams, the Cognition was bi-metal and powerful but intimidating to some given its weight. Taking what they learned UNPRLD is proud to introduce the update with the [ReCognition](https://shop.yoyoexpert.com/collections/new-releases/products/recognition-yoyo-by-unprld?variant=37773086523582) - a monometal variant of the Cognition.
  
With [ReCognition](https://shop.yoyoexpert.com/collections/new-releases/products/recognition-yoyo-by-unprld?variant=37773086523582) Colin and UNPRLD initially focused on reducing the weight of the Cognition design. Through various prototypes they found the perfect balance of agility, speed, and more importantly stability. Colin has always found stability to be the most important factor in executing and learning tricks. The final prototype has more rim weight than the first, and and a flat hub for fingerspin capabilities plus a clean and modern look.

Simply put [ReCognition](https://shop.yoyoexpert.com/collections/new-releases/products/recognition-yoyo-by-unprld?variant=37773086523582) plays incredible. Features 7075 aluminum body for durability and tolerance. The new found balance with materials makes this yoyo feel lighter, while maintaining the same power that people desired from bi-metal design.
With the [ReCognition](https://shop.yoyoexpert.com/collections/new-releases/products/recognition-yoyo-by-unprld?variant=37773086523582), Colin feels confident in doing his tricks with ease. It is extremely capable of helping newer players master difficult tricks as well as help high level players have complete control of the yo-yo’s movement.

its such a good value throw. The nicer aluminum can take a beating and the profile is very stable for a mono. I have one and almost got a 2nd because the raw is a nice aesthetic
