ILOVEYOYO presents to you: The Trvth

As a tribute to Tom Kuhn’s SB2, Frank and Dominik from ILYY decided to make a little brother for it called “The Trvth”. So far there are 2 types of prototypes as you can see in the pictures. ILYY aims to release this beauty during the second half of 2011. This should be good!!



Pictures from the ILYY site

As the guys from ILYY like the tease us with a video, of course they did it again this time!

New ILYY Video!

Check out the new video of Frank and Dominic, owners of the German yoyo company ILOVEYOYO. Some great stuff in here featuring the ILYY Enigma2011 and ILYY Lynx. Sweet!

ILYY Pearl 2.0

After 2 years of fine-tuning their Pearl coating (we all remember the E1NS Pearl and Pearl Noctu as the first Pearl models), ILOVEYOYO is proud to announce Pearl 2.0 or just Pearl since it replaces the previous coating. On their website they explain this improved coating like this: “it’s a special kind of hard anodizing which has some certain qualities to it. Maximum resistance to abrasion, greatest possible sleekness, maximum hardness/toughness and much increased chemical resistance. According to the anodizing shop this particular coating surpasses similar coatings by competitors up to 30% regarding the quality of the coating features.”


ILYY says that in the future, more yoyos will feature this new Pearl coating but in limited quantities since it’s not really a fancy looking coating, but rather something technical where it’s about the extra features as stated above.
Can’t wait to hold one of those special coated yoyos in my hand and test if they are as durable as promised. From my own experience ILYY never fails at meeting their high standards, so expect the new Pearl 2.0 coating to be VERY resistant and capable of taking some beating !

New Video from Will Simmons (Simmy)

As a huge personal fan of Simmy it’s always a great pleasure for me to announce a new video from him. This is quite possibly his best effort to date. He’s told me he’s going to be dedicating more time to videos in the future so look for him to make a big splash sometime soon :)

YoYoNation Inventory Day Restock Goodness.

Okay so after a few days of allowing eagle eyed shoppers to hunt for hidden treasures, i think it’s high time we provided you with a (fairly) comprehensive list of the items we uncovered on inventory day. Bear in mind, although some of these items are in the discontinued section, you can still buy them without problem.

If anyone knows of other products i’ve missed, or if anyone knows of anything i’ve missed, do let me know in the comments :)

List after the jump :) (more…)
