Anglam2 7075

This Anglam 2 is milled from 7075 aircraft aluminum.

Just like the original Anglam, this Anglam 2 is machined from 7075 aircraft aluminum, which is denser, stronger, and more durable than the standard 6061 alloy. While the general specs don’t differ from the standard version, experienced players will feel the difference when they pick up the 7075 version. Another added benefit is that 7075 aluminum is more resilient against bumps and mistakes.

This is another delicious top-end Anglam flavor, brought to you by sOMEThING.

Slasher

A new first for sOMEThING, a bimetal yo-yo with an outer rim.

The Slasher is new counterpoint to sOMEThING’s other flagship model, the ANGLAM. The first bimetal yo-yo in sOMEThING’s lineup to feature an outer rim, Slasher’s rim is made from stainless steel. The diameter is 1mm smaller than the ANGLAM, and 2 grams have been shaved off the weight, but thanks to its steel rim, boasts a tough sleep that surpasses even full-sized yo-yos. You can really feel the benefits of the bimetal design when you play with the Slasher.

The Slasher isn’t designed just for power, and that’s one of its appealing qualities. Thanks to the bimetal design, Slasher gives you both power and impressive control. Yo-Yos have seen an amazing leap in performance over the years, but the Slasher shows that development continues to improve, even when you think we’ve reached the pinnacle!

Medusa

Medusa glows intensely with the color of your choice, it’s the perfect performance yo-yo!

Bring your string tricks to the next level, with the brightly-lit Medusa. With the flip of a switch, the clear matte body hums to life, glowing brightly even when the yo-yo is not spinning, so unlike the spin-activated models, you can continue your play even if the yo-yo slows down. Not that you’ll have that problem much, the wide, aggressive body has great potential, as it was made for professionals.

Press the button and the light cycles through blue, white and red modes, so you can change the mood of your performance through the lighting in your yo-yo.

Medusa charges with a custom USB cable (included).

Ghost Orbit

The Ghost Orbit is outfitted with the V5 Catch Parts, for super long combos and horizontal play.

The V5 Catch Parts allow the response area to spin freely separately from the rest of the yo-yo body, nearly eliminating sleep loss when the string touches the spinning body. This also creates the ability to perform tricks that involve holding the spinning yo-yo in your hands, which many players have used to create a whole new genre of string tricks. Check out the video below for a closer look at how they work.

The sleep times we get out of the Ghost Orbit are impressive, and could make a player stand out in the competition scene. Longer spin means less time catching and throwing, meaning your practice will be more dense, letting you perform more tricks in less time. The Catch Parts creates a feeling that may be challenging to master at first, but as you relax, your yo-yoing will improve and the benefits of this new gimmick will pay off in your performance.

Made for off string play, Ghost Orbit is a very wide yo-yo, so the Catch Parts have also been made wide, to make it easy to catch in your hand and keep the yo-yo spinning.
