[caption id="" align="aligncenter" width="432" caption="Spinworkx BBQ 2010, were you there???"]Spinworkx BBQ 2010, were you there???[/caption]

Normally when we announce a Spinworkx event, most players gather their gear, music, and make their way down early to the event site to practice and get ready for a whole day of gut wrenching competition among peers on a stage in front of a live audience.

This time, however, players took time off from competition to come hang out, minger, and chill at our only non-competitive event we hold once a year, a gathering of our local spinner community where players can lay back and have fun, the Spinworkx BBQ 2010 saw the close of 2010's Spinworkx activities, and boy what a BBQ it was!

Spinworkx Yo-yo Review: Duncan Freebird



It's been awhile since we covered a yo-yo review, and since we've been having quite a lot of new stuff being brought into our stores for the past week, we figured it'd make sense to at least review one of them...but which one?!?!?!

[caption id="" align="aligncenter" width="432" caption="The Freebird by Duncan"]The Freebird by Duncan[/caption]

After much debating, we decided to take a look at the Freebird, Duncan's latest screaming eagle, and give it a test run to see what makes this yo-yo so hype that it took almost 2 years before it was finally released to the masses, and boy were we impressed!

The Markmont Next is Mark Montgomery's new signature yo-yo, following the same profile as the original Markmont. Unlike the original, the Markmont Next is done on a lathe while the first Markmont was created on a mill.

With more rim weight added to the Next, the yo-yo has a more stable spin, allowing better spin times as well.

[caption id="" align="aligncenter" width="432" caption="The Markmont Next uses it's usual flow grove response"]The Markmont Next uses its usual flow grove response[/caption]

Equipped with a large bearing and flow grove response, the Markmont Next comes with a groved surface similar to the original, staying as close as possible to the original Markmont we have come to know and love.

Spinworkx Yo-yo Review: The PHENOMenon

It's probably the most talked about yo-yo of 2010, the Phenom by YoyoJam, a Hiroyuki Suzuki signature yo-yo that is not only meant to look good, but play good as well.

Spinworkx Video Contest 2010 RESULTS!!

So after almost a month of deliberating, we have the results of the first ever Spinworkx Video Contest.

Now, before all is said and done, we would like to give a shout out to everyone who put in their time and effort in producing these videos. Anyone who has done video editing will know that it is not a simple process, and to make a good video, one has to film, watch, cut, sequence, track, etc the video, not an easy task by any means.

So, with that,

GOOD JOB GUYS!

Coming Soon

Spinworkx Yoyo Review: Duncan 2010 Freehand *Exclusive!*

When we first got word that Duncan was going to take an old favorite, and make it even better, we can't help but be a little skeptical.

After all, Duncan has always been very successful at making yo-yos catered to beginners and advance players alike, offering good performance plastics with little maintenance to the yo-yo.

But a yo-yo better than that? We had to see it for ourselves to believe it...and boy were we impressed!
