Description
Bist - Tondo
Bist has made an interesting idea into a reality, the first square full metal yo-yo from our Italian friends.
Bist has shown their playfulness by overturning the common misconception that yo-yos can only be round. The edges have been tapered to better fit the hand and avoid injury. The thought and care put into this model rivals Bist's more conventional designs. The body has been carefully constructed so that it's not a neat idea but an actual usable yo-yo. Actually, when thrown it produces a sound like it's cutting through the air, and the feeling is unlike any other yo-yo; truly an interesting experience! It uses an hspin sized bearing. Although this yo-yo can easily handle most tricks, it's not geared towards use at competitions, but it is a great addition to any collection. Even if you aren't a collector, it's the kind of thing anyone would want to put on display, trully a unique yo-yo.
By the way, Tondo means "circle" in Italian.
