The Upshift is the signature bi-metal model of Nam Dong Hun, a Korean player recognized worldwide for his ultra-speed, high-intensity play style.
Weighing in at 66.4g, Upshift sits on the heavier end of modern bi-metals, delivering the power and stability to fully support aggressive speed play. That added mass translates into strong spin and a confident presence on the string, while the refined weight distribution keeps the yo-yo feeling responsive and controlled. Direction changes feel immediate and intentional, even when pushing the pace, allowing the yo-yo to track cleanly through fast, demanding sequences.
Upshift is designed to absorb the player’s input and amplify it, pairing raw spin power with precise handling. The result is a yo-yo that stays composed under pressure and encourages players to push into faster, more powerful combinations with confidence.
