XL
Posted on May 27, 2011 by CYYC in YoYosNot just large, this one is Xtra-Large! For 2011 we present the XL.
The XL started as an amusing variation of the Manimal and then took on a life of its own. The XL is ‘square’, meaning it is exactly the same width and diameter. Wide, flat rims and a gently sloping U-shaped center region make this super comfortable in-hand. The 73g weight matches the wide profile of the XL nicely. A slight undercut on the lip assists with inner-ring grinds while the matte finish and incredible stability allow for amazingly long finger and arm grinds.
Ridiculously stable, and dead smooth, the XL is a blast to play. And for the over 21 crowd, it works quite nicely as a shot glass too!

I’ve had one of these since Cal State, and can’t believe it’s 73 grams. I would’ve guessed 67 or 68. Fantastic playing yoyo.

This looks great! When will these be available? And will there be any other colors?
YYE has them already, probably need to call since they are not showing on the website. A small second run just finished machining, anodizing next week, then assembly. Probably about 2 two 3 weeks out at this point.
