SOMEWHERE DESIGNED YOYOS "BB" Back to Basic
The third yoyo from my favorite yoyo player "44nollie"'s original brand, "SOMEWHERE DESIGNED YOYOS," called "BB," has arrived!
As the name "Back to Basic" suggests, this yoyo is a slim yoyo that harks back to the origins. Recently, wide yoyos have been trendy, so some people might feel a disadvantage with a narrow width. However, there was a time when a width of around 40mm was the mainstream, so some veteran players might feel nostalgic.
My personal impression after using it is that I didn't mind the narrow width as much as I expected. More than that, it felt light and nimble yet had good spin power, making it a "yoyo you just want to throw" due to its pleasing feel. Even beginners can naturally develop an awareness of throwing carefully with a slim yoyo, so I think it's good to get used to it early on. As an aside, the wind noise when throwing it also boosts my motivation. Three types of yoyos have been released so far, but personally, this "BB" is my favorite. Highly recommended!!
Below is a quote from the manufacturer:
Somewhere Designed Yoyos' first
slimline yoyo.
This BB is not just a narrow yoyo; it has low edges and makes it easy to land the string, so it doesn't feel too narrow. You can play without worrying about difficulty in landing the string, and you can immediately feel its performance once you throw it.
It's a yoyo like a strong new game that stands at the origin of old-school slimline yoyos while eliminating the anxieties of the original. It also makes it easier for those who have only used wide yoyos to try narrow yoyos, and it's a yoyo that seeks to bridge old-school and new-school.
