7075 aluminium yoyos, designed in Smythesdale, Australia.
No. 1 · Wide organicComing DecemberSpeccy

No. 2 · Undersized organicComing soonStubby
The Stubby is a Speccy drawn down to 50.5 mm: small enough for a jacket pocket, and still 62 grams, so it sleeps like a full-size yoyo.

No. 3 · Small and lightComing soonServo
Narrow, light and quick: 52.5 mm across, 39 wide and 58 grams, for fast tricks where a heavier yoyo gets in the way.

No. 4 · Stepped VComing soonArvo
A full-size V-shape: 56.6 mm across, 44.4 wide and 66 grams. A little ledge runs round where the catch zone meets the rim, and the cup steps down three times to a domed nub.

No. 5 · Oversized organicComing soonBoomer
An oversized organic: 62 mm across, 46.5 wide and 68 grams. It's the Speccy's shape drawn out, and the extra size all goes into the rims, for the most spin in the range.

The brief was a full-size organic that felt like the yoyos we kept going back to: 56 mm across, 43 wide, about 66 grams, with nearly all of its spin out in the rims. Speccy is short for spectacular, and it's the one we'd hand you first.

Undersized yoyos live in pockets and come out on walks and in queues. The trick is keeping enough weight in a smaller rim that it still spins long. It's named for the stubby, the short beer bottle that fits in one hand. This one fits in a pocket.
Servo
Narrow, light and quick: 52.5 mm across, 39 wide and 58 grams, for fast tricks where a heavier yoyo gets in the way.

A servo is where you stop for petrol: in and out, no hanging about. This one is for tricks that change direction a lot, where a light yoyo keeps up and a heavy one argues.
Arvo
A full-size V-shape: 56.6 mm across, 44.4 wide and 66 grams. A little ledge runs round where the catch zone meets the rim, and the cup steps down three times to a domed nub.

An arvo is the afternoon, when the work's done and there's still light to throw in. The wide V catches the string wherever it lands, and the steps in the cup take metal out of the middle so it can go to the rims.

A boomer is a big male kangaroo, and anything else that's big. Oversized yoyos are steady and slow to wind down, which suits long combos and learning new tricks. The rims are long, so the walls are thin to keep it at 68 grams.
