JOIN THE REVOLUTION

Monday, June 28th, 2010

Get ready for a REVOLUTION in yo-yo play with Grant Johnson’s new signature series yo-yo from YoYoJam.

Grant is not only famous for his many national TV appearances but also for his incredibly innovative yo-yo tricks in competition and for his viral YouTube videos seen world wide. Grant shows that age is no boundary in becoming a yo-yo champion! His new yo-yo the Revolution is built for any player who wants to go from beginner to expert with ease.

The Revolution features YoYoJams all new “Solid Spin”" high grade aluminum axle system. Machined specifically for YoYoJam this axle is completely unique in construction. It brings the metal rimmed yo-yo together as if it was a completely solid metal body resulting in a very stable yo-yo. This new construction also allows for two bearing sizes to be used as you progress from your first throw to the most complex string tricks. The Revolution ships with a standard bearing installed which allows the yo-yo to be more responsive for beginner to intermediate play. When you are ready to move on to more complex tricks, simply change to the Speed bearing included in the package to move up to an unresponsive yo-yo capable of the most complex string tricks.

The Revolution features a tough polycarbonate body with machined aluminum weight rings. It has a comfortable fit in the hand and a smooth, stable spin at all times. Grant Johnson designed this yo-yo with YoYoJam to bring players a yo-yo that moves effortlessly through the air and on the string. His tricks are always “big” and the Revolution is the one yo-yo built to handle them.

From your first throw with Grant Johnson’s signature series you can feel the power and know that you are holding the latest in yo-yo technology. Learn new age yo-yoing tricks faster and perform them with style. Join the Revolution today!

Bryan Figueroa for taking 1st in the 4A Division!  Bryan was using his new SIGNATURE SERIES yo-yo the FIESTA.  More info coming soon but think CELCON AQUARIUS with some other tweaks and you got it.  Bryan proves this yo-yo will be the yo-yo to have for offstring play!

Also big congratulations to Grant for taking 5th place in a competitive 1A division!  Grant was using his new prototype the INFINITY which is going to be an AMAZING new metal ring yo-yo with killer looks and play.  Big updates on this model coming soon – you won’t want to miss it!
