I’m wondering about what yoyo’s are made here in the good ol USA. I’m not knocking other yoyo’s made elsewhere, I just want to buy my high end yoyo from an american company when time comes around. ??? ---

I think it’s great to support American businesses. The only ones I can think of right now are General-Yo (I think in California), One Drop (in Oregon), and YoYoJam (in Georgia). I’ve enjoyed my One Drops, and I’m anxious to try some General-Yos, supposedly they make really nice throws. I did like my Axiom from YoYoJam, but not as much as a lot of my other brand yoyos… I’ve heard their newer models (Hitman Pro, SR-71, etc.) are a step up from what they used to do, though. ---

Check out String Theory Yoyos, they are out of Texas I believe and are excellent throws! Wanting a yoyo from the USA has nothing to do with RACISM. I can’t believe I read that. ---

I have no problems with yoyo’s made in other countries. I own an hspin icon and some hub stacked chinese one. I’m going to be getting a YYF model soon, but when time comes for me to spend some $$, i would like to look hard at some of the US made ones. I might as well try and support someone trying to make a living here, then over there. Not drinking no hateraide here. Just looking for help and maybe a bit of advice. ;D ;D ---

DG’s right. the only YYF throws that are made in china are very clearly labeled (and quite largely) “MADE IN CHINA” Which I think as of now is it DV888, 888x and the JK as far as metals go. But there could be more 😛 I know some (most? maybe all?) of their plastics are but idk which ones 😕 ---

Majority of YYF throws are machined in US. > > then feel free to make the list for us. all mine say CHINA brah NOT MADE IN CHINA PopStar Protege Yuuksta (someone said it was made in china, but I can’t find a single one that says so. I’m gonna need pics or BS) Hectic 2010 California Mighty Flea Big Deal Tactic Lunatic Chaotic Adjust-O-Matic Boss 44 Genesis Primo Severe & Supernova & Lite MVP Monster Rockstar Skyline Superstar Buddha King So that makes 24/30 of their metals. Doesn’t really seem like a majority here. MADE IN CHINA G5 888x Speed Dial DV888 JK Superwide However that’s only for metals. I haven’t the slightest idea about those, but I know most of their main ones are. I think maybe the FAST 201, Spinstar, Pocket Change, and the Velocity are made here in America, but that’s just based off the pictures here and me not seeing the made in china label. ---
