I’m pretty sure this is a Chinese yoyo. The others are diabolos. There’s an extra “o” in it. Diablo is Spanish for devil.

This is awesome!

              There are some nice no jives on eBay right now. That’s about the only place to find them. If I hadn’t already ordered a new throw the other day, I’d be bidding.
             
            
               
               
               
            
            
           
          
          
            
            
              I’d be interested in seeing more exotic woods worked with.  I’m not complaining about the ones we have now, but there are some really amazing woods out there that could surely be good unresponsive yoyos.  Wood such as Ipe is pretty dense, weather resistant, and quite hard.

Something with C sized bearings, sili response and H or V shaped? 
I’d easily drop $50-80 for it
             
            
               
               
               
            
            
           
          
            
            
              Bearings? We don’t need no stinking bearings.
