Throw-Yo is proud to introduce a product line based on the artwork and stylings of Team Throw-Yo member Nic Conrick! From the abomination that is the Cowclops to the signature logo of the Hydr0A style of yo-yo play, Nic’s official merchandise is now in the shop. There’s tees, stickers, and even a terry bucket hat!

Team Throw-Yo has a new member! I’d like to welcome Andy! (@AudreySickburn)

Andy is a full time software development engineer and part time mad yoyo scientist. One of Andy’s favorite things is creating yoyos that look like they shouldn’t work at all yet somehow play well. A fan of fixed axle 0a and classic small bearing throws, Andy strives to live the life of a Frankensteinesque monster concocted from the best parts of Tom Kuhn, Audrey Hepburn, and various other pop culture fixations. When not 3d printing yoyos, spending time with their wife and two kids, or working, you can find Andy staring at household objects wondering if they can be turned into yoyos.

You can find the above info, as well as Andy’s link, on the Team Throw-Yo page.

If you haven’t had a chance to try Throw-Yo strings, now is the perfect time to hop in! Two String Sample sets are now available in the shop: a Performance String Sampler and a Comfort String Sampler.

Each Sampler contains 3 strings for $6. The pack breakdowns are as follows:

Performance String Sampler:

• Phosphor Bronze Elixir
• Mad Hatter Detergent
• Dawn Ink

Comfort String Sampler:

• PRL Serum
• Heartstring Tea
• Pink Bismuth Vapor

If you’re looking for the fastest, longest-lasting string, the Performance String Sampler will give you a good grasp of Throw-Yo’s highest-end offerings. If you’re looking for a soft string with a more laid-back style of play, the Comfort String Sampler is for you.

New colors are in the shop!

Today I’ve added two new Nectar colors, Dahlia and Silver Ghost.

I’ve also added Tangerine Dream, a new color for the Tea line of Throw-Yo strings.

Enjoy!

Catalyst Strings are being Discontinued immediately, as they’re just not selling. They’ve been replaced by much better nylon alternatives, such as Teas, Vapors, and Serums.

New color strings are in stock! Today I’ve added a single new color to Teas and Vapors, and two new color Serums!

Heartstring Tea

Heartstring Teas are a tri-color string with red, pink, and purple. They are perfect for the season of love, or any other time of the year! Just don’t tug on the ‘ol heartstrings TOO hard.

Pink Bismuth Returns as a Vapor

Pink Bismuth was an early color in Throw-Yo’s history, originally offered as a Potion. Now it returns as a Vapor, ready to envelop your finger in comforting warmth.

* Will not help your nausea, heartburn, indigestion, upset stomach, diarrhea

PRL and Midnight Make Their Serum Debut

One of my most popular colors, PRL, and an Ink from the Cycle Series, Midnight, are now available as Serums! Despite their short time on the market, Serums are proving to be the most popular blend Throw-Yo has to offer. Now you can get these classic colors as either an Ink or Serum!

“Berv, it’s only January!”

I know, I know. The thing is, Fixed Axle February takes a LOT of planning (though the heads of the Yoyo Boomers Club do most of that work.) I wanted to make sure FAF items were available AHEAD of time so that people could get them in time for the event!

So here’s what Throw-Yo and the YYBC have put together this year!

The final thread order I was awaiting finally showed up, and now Serum Strings are in the shop! These ultra-plush strings are 100% nylon and are the answer to all those who don’t like the feel of other Throw-Yo strings. While super soft, these strings are still Throw-Yo tight!
