Peak 2 will be Released at THURSDAY, JUNE 8th / 10 PM EDT / 7 PM PDT

The Peak gets an update for its tenth birthday!

It’s already been ten years since CLYW released their first yo-yo, the Peak. Made specifically for the contest scene, Peak was the first of many game-changing yo-yos. It wouldn’t be too much to saw that CLYW made itself a major name in the yo-yo world, and helped shaped the evolution of spin-tops. Now, to celebrate its birthday, CLYW is releasing an update to the Peak.

The size hasn’t changed much, but the body is 2 grams lighter than the original. The biggest change to the design is the new low edge on the response area, which look like they take after the Wooly Marmot 1 and 2, but the edge has a slight bump to it, giving a feeling of a higher edge, but still reducing sleep loss. This preserves some of the playfeel of the original Peak.

With its great feeling and high potential for the contest stage, the Peak 2 lives up to its namesake.

Official Description
The Peak, the iconic first return top ever released by CLYW, set the bar for metal return tops upon its release. Crashing web stores and driving collectors insane with each quickly sold out release, the Peak was the flagship model of CLYW, and the design that launched the company.

Ten years later, we’ve cleaned it up, brought it up to modern play standards, and we’re bringing it back for a whole new generation of players to enjoy.

The Peak 2 features that same shape you all know and love, with design changes to the bearing seat and response area, and a shift in weight distribution to make it play even smoother and floatier. The ultimate carry-around return top, the Peak 2 is everything you were hoping for and more.

Made in China
