:captured: – Eternal Throw VICTORY


(happy birthday Victoria)
This is the awesome new yo-yo from Eternal Throw. The Victory drops today and a bunch of online stores! It is scheduled for review later this year, but I will go ahead and say that if you can get a hold of one, you should jump at it.
Duncan Midwest Tour
So Drew Tetz and Blake Freemen a little while back, went on the Midwest Tour. This is a video that I made from the tour stops I was able to go to. Enjoy.
Calypso :captured:
Quoting YoYoWiki
The Calypso is a wooden yo-yo with a fixed metal axle made by Doble. It was designed for long sleep times. It previously held a world record for fixed axle sleep time at 63 seconds
I got this from the one and only Doc Pop. I consider to to my one of the jewels of my collection. My personal sleeper record on it is 48 seconds.

:captured: – Jax
These jacks were in the box of wonder that DocPop gave me when I visited him in last week. I learned tonight that it is very hard to capture that bright orange without blasting out the color.


:captured: San Francisco
If you like pictures, and happen to like my pictures, then I think you will like the enclosed 122 images taken during the week I was in San Francisco.
If not, then pretend you never saw this post.
And now back to our regularly scheduled programing
PRODUCT REVIEW | The Omnicron X by 3yo3

Landon Balk is a wizard. I can imagine his surprise when his invitation from Yogwarts, School of Yo-Yo Wizardry arrived that fateful day. The joy he must have felt when assigned to Modffindor must have been a delight to witness. The story of his victory over Jugglemort (the evil lord of magical juggling) is the stuff of legends….. Alright, I think I stretched that out long enough. Bottom line is that Landon Balk does amazing work and his recent first place win in the Modding contest at Worlds is a testament to that. His latest release is the Omnicron X, a metal anodized variation of the acrylic Omnicron. The Omnicron X is a co-design between Landon Balk and 3yo3 team member CJ Atkinson. It is CJ’s signature yo-yo.

A very special :captured: for Josh Yee and all you Bronies
Disclamer: This edition of :captured: is purely for fun, with zero artistic merit, and zero value except for people to roll their eyes at. Specifically it is a joke for my friend Josh Yee. If you want SRSNEWSONLYABOUTMYYOYOS then go ahead and skip to the next post.

More photos and the story after the jump...

Update: Thanks to the Equestria Daily (brony blog) for the shoutout.

:captured: One Drop – CODE 1
Yes, I am still reviewing this monster this weekend, but I got a sudden string of inspiration with the very un-June like weather we are having here in Nor Cal.

:Captured: – The Aoda Immortal / Eternal Star
I have heard this yo-yo called both the Immortal Star and the Eternal Star. Whatever it is, it is now :captured:
I also learned that it is not a spintop. It just… transforms.
Extremely early feedback. It plays better without the metal stacks. The Stacks are held on with screws, which means you need a tool to attach and detach them. As a ball it is essentially a giant keychain.
- Scheduled for a review in March
:Captured: Big in 99
This was a gift from Mo. I sold tons of these in 1998-99, but never owned one myself. Thanks Mo. Vintage style video to come in the future.
