Acrophobia

yoyorecreation - Acrophobia
The wide body is suitable for many tricks. This is the first signature model of Kentaro Mannen, the 2007-2010 NJ1A champion.

The Acrophobia is the first signature model of Kentaro Mannen, the 2007-2010 NJ (Hokkaido Regional Tournament) 1A Division Champion. He prefers wide yo-yos, but is also good at tricks that involve detailed string entanglements, so this yo-yo was designed in a special size to suit his style and preferences.
Its diameter is 54mm and its width is 45mm. These numbers are the size of a typical yo-yo for string tricks, but its width is comparable to the Dreadnought, which is known as the representative of the company's large yo-yos. This makes it easier for the yo-yo to respond to delicate movements such as weaving between the fingers, while its wide-open wings allow it to land on the string as if sucked in, no matter how big the trick. The greatest appeal of the Acrophobia is that you can fully enjoy the benefits of this yo-yo, which is by no means a major size.

Yo-yos that are wider than their length tend to be unstable, so many manufacturers have shied away from making them. However, Yoyorecreation, which boasts the top market share in Japan, has the development skills to overcome this challenge and have brought the Acrophobia to this level of perfection. "We will not compromise for the player"... This yo-yo seems to convey a strong message from the manufacturer.

Don't be intimidated by the unfamiliar sizing. It's just designed to accommodate a wide range of trick styles. Pick it up and enjoy the charm of this Acrophobia to your heart's content.

*Some bodies may have small scratches or faded anodizing, but this is a product specification. The material used to bring out the best performance is super duralumin, which is difficult to anodize, so please understand this before purchasing. There is no problem with use.
