The new Wooly Marmot 2 is the perfect follow up to the legendary signature model of World Champion Jensen Kimmitt! The original Wooly Marmot is a fan favorite for CLYW players and collectors, and they’ve managed to keep the charm of the original while updating it for modern contest play.
CLYW added 1mm to the diameter and 5mm to the width, and moved the weight in the inner hub, giving this new Marmot the speed of the original with a lot more stability. The high wall gap of the original has been pushed with a step for the response, giving the new Wooly Marmot a great catch zone for horizontal play and lower friction for regular play.
The new Wooly Marmot 2 is everything you loved about the original, upgraded to handle the highest level of modern competitive play. From Jensen’s tricks to yours, the Wooly Marmot 2 can handle any trick you can throw.
I kicked a rhyme one time in the other Marmot thread. I’ll post here too.
Off the top…in a zone:
Marmot 2 Freestyle:
No more colorway secrets,
Soon, the Marmot releases.
My eye is on the bip bop,
The very moment, that it drops.
Design was debated,
Shall be mine, and long awaited,
Caribou Lodge, they just made it,
And, I heard a few have played it.
They will definitely go fast,
And they certainly won’t last,
They’ll be showing out of stock,
Within an hour of the drop.
That teasing was so evil,
While we sat on pins and needles,
Finally, releasing to the people,
Marmot2…the Marmot Sequel.
I hate to complain but I’m getting really bored of seeing the same exact colorways on every single release, save for the Hulk Smash-ish one here that has little to no appeal to me. That alone is enough to not make me get this one on the first run, though I’m likely to get one eventually. Everything about the yoyo and its specs looks great, though. If I get bored and happen to be online when they drop I guess I might impulse buy a Jack Rabbit since I haven’t been able to find a JR Bonfire yet.
