| It's almost time for the 2013 World YoYo Contest! Make sure that you're all set with the latest gear, plenty of string and pads, and practice those freestyles.
We've got the brand new 2013 Superstar from YoYoFactory as well as a re-release of their micro yoyo, the Mighty Flea. Plus a restock from CLYW, and the brand new Forte by Monkeyfinger. Check out a review of the Forte on YoYoNews for the full scoop on this great new throw. |

| In 2008 YoYoFactory wanted to see how far they could push the rules of yo-yo design. They wanted to make something wide and easy to control, because that's what their team was asking for. They wanted something that could spin longer so their team could have the best chance at success. What they came up with was the Superstar.
After careful engineering and working closely with their factories they finally had the ultimate competitive design. The Superstar has gone on to win tons of titles, and become a staple yo-yo in any players arsenal. Now, 5 years later, they have taken the core philosophy of the Superstar and given it new attributes that todays players are asking for. They pushed the body wider, brought the inner wall closer to the bearing to reduce friction when doing horizontal tricks, and designed it without hubstacks to minimize center weight for even longer spin times.

The Mighty Flea from YoYoFactory is the worlds smallest yo-yo with only a one inch diameter! This fully playable micro yoyo packs a big punch in a small package.
This is the new 2013 edition of the Mighty Flea featuring slick new engravings. The shape comes takes the 'original Flea' form but with a major tweak to change it into more of an overall butterfly shape. This sets the stage for a new level of play with a yo-yo the size of a coin!

Monkeyfinger is a relatively new name to the yo-yo scene, but they've made a huge impact throughout the industry with quality craftmanship and cutting edge designs.
The Forte is Monkeyfinger's latest creation, and it's the signature throw of Idaho State Yo-Yo Champion Mike Montgomery. With a narrower profile and weight pushed out to the rims, this yo-yo is dead smooth and stable enough to handle anything you can throw at it.
