Duncan Magnetude FINALLY coming to market
More than three long years in the making. The Duncan Magnetude, designed by robotics engineer Zachary Lytle, features magnetic spinning sides (think hub stack ish) and in the prototypes I have seen, a magnetic counterweight. Check out the video below to see the prototype in action.
Considering BAC is this weekend, I would guess that the Magnetude will make its retail appearance.

Jason Lee is many many things. Many many things that would normally be associated with Chuck Norris or Mt. T. Here he is being awesome all over China. You may have heard that China got a bit more awesome? That’s because Jason Lee was there.

The Kengarden Store?!?!?
FINALLY NEWS THAT IS NOT A VIDEO!!!!!
I mean, don’t get me wrong, videos are great, just the “news” side of YoYoSkills has been kind of light lately. So check this out. Jake Wiens, founder of the Kengarden, international man of kendama mastery (not a typo) has worked out a deal with premium Bay Area clothing maker and “don’t call me a consignment store” consignment store San Franpsycho . The Kengarden Store will adorn an entire wall and will be filled with kendama, yoyo, art, and other goodness. It opens THIS FRIDAY!
Facebook page for more info.
Consider this THE PLACE to be the day before BAC. A Yo-Yo and Kendama pre-contest party. I wish I could be there, but I have this pesky thing called a job so consider me there in spirit.

Just saw this video from Northern Spin Company which is essentially a love letter to its fans from the Canadian company. If you ever wonder what kind of love and passion goes into a yo-yo, this is a video to watch.

I thought this video was genius. Killer tricks to keep you interested, use of darkness to keep up suspense, and well edited to the song Good Times by Vanilla.
