            [b]Introduction[/b]

```

The VK, a small bearing California. Vashek Kroutils Signature yo-yo. At first I was looking at a G5 or a

Skyline. But then I saw this video about the VK. So I decided to try a VK. Here is the video I saw:

               [b]First Thoughts[/b]

```

This yo-yo is a little bit bigger than I expected but looks pretty cool. I thought it would be a little heavier

for its size but it was kind of light. I noticed that it had a very rounded shape almost like a Pyro Light.

I dont really like rounded shapes but I did not mind it on this yo-yo.

```
                  [b]First Throw[/b]

```

Wow! This yo-yo is very smooth! It was also unresponsive right out of the box. The small gap allowed

me to do a very tight bind. This is a very forgiving yo-yo.

```
                      [b]Comfort[/b]

```

The VK fits just right in your hand. The anodizing feels really smooth in your hand.

```
                   [b]On A Throw[/b]

```

Like I said before it is a very smooth and light. It is very good for fast moving tricks.

* * *

```
                       [b]Grinding[/b]

```

This thing grinds like butter! It runs up your arm very smoothly! Most of the time it just sits on your

arm there and spins!

* * *

```
                        [b]Overall[/b]

```

The VK is a very great yo-yo. It is the only yo-yo I use right now.

I highly recommend this yo-yo to anyone that likes large and light yo-yos.
