YoYoRecreation Appreciation Thread

Yeah but it’s also engraved. As far as i know engraving raw yoyos isn’t common practice is it? Certainly YYR don’t do it. So it’s a question of whether it’s raw and engraved, or whether they’re using a different technique as their usual clear ano dulls the shine quite a bit.

did you not read about the sorcery the wizard preformed

To me, that’s more of a hint towards it being titanium. Though a Ti yoyo with steel rings seems like it’d cost more than $200. Especially from a Japanese manufacturer.

already asked not titanium

What if i told you YYR has an all titanium model coming out named the Dazzler and that’s what Fujisaka used to win JN place 2nd? Akitoshi used the Draupnir btw.

Then I’m guessing I’d better find someone I can sell some organs to. Also, didn’t Akitoshi win JN?

Oops, sorry, yeah reverse those lol, so bad with Japanese names. So curious what the price will be though assuming it ever gets sold. They could either go super high-end and charge 30,000-40,000, or be smart about it and go for the Anglam in the 22,500-25,000 range. So much want. Also apparently they were selling B-grades for 3,300Y at JN, i think i would have bought every single one for that price.

I was first looking the dropner,or however you spell it, and I was thinking that it had a 6061 hub and 7075 rims. I’m suprised to see what’s actually going on it’s really interesting.

somebody tell me all you know about the draupnir

I’d be willing to sell mine I think, if anyone is still interested. PM me off thread.

Sell only, not trade, please. I wanna fund some ano work…

Similar specs to the Sleipnir, plays lighter, spins longer, stainless steel rims. That’s about it. :confused:

All full. Have a Jason Wong cigar case that i’m hoping to use for the crown jewels - Draupnir and Dazzler.

the dazzler is a real thing?

Yep. Dat Google translate:

I also saw it mentioned by name on another Twitter account 1-2 days ago, but without the titanium mention at the time so i didn’t think much of it other than it was another model they had coming out. Sadly i forgot whose account it was, and can’t search for it since it’s in Japanese…

Edit: Some more i found:



Dat pink Acro. And dat Back Acro

Actually, dat everything

Still waiting for YYR to re-open their online store and put the shiny new stuff up. Come on, Kengo!
