Samurai

Sengoku - Samurai

Brought to you by the maker named for the era of the Samurai warrior, the Samurai is a bimetal string trick yo-yo with a rare M-profile.

This is a bimetal throw unlike the others that came before. Sengoku has mixed the themes and concepts of its other yo-yos to come together in this new M-profile. The stainless steel ring looks like both an outer and inner rim at the same time. Strangely the benefits of both seem to be present in the Samurai.

The secret is in the inertia moving toward the axis of revolution, and not just the "spin" itself. This shift in focus means that the Samurai keeps its posture upright and true, maintaining incredible stability to the very end of its sleep. This benefit is immediately apparent at the first throw, and makes for unbelievably steady horizontal play.

Sengoku is very enthusiastic about their latest design, stating that this development may uproot the contest scene when they see what it can do. Not just a bimetal design, the Samurai represents a new era and understanding of the physics of yo-yo. After throwing it ourselves, we think they may be right.
