Description

Japan Technology - Shift Change
This signature model by Futoshi Maruyama revolutionizes off-string golf.

This is a groundbreaking off-string yo-yo that deviates from the "average" to overturn conventional wisdom about off-string yo-yos and take players to a higher level.
The "body size and ease of mounting" required for typical off-string yo-yos has been significantly reduced, achieving the "ability to handle any trick, which is possible because of its small size" desired by signature player Maruyama Futoshi.
Please also see the manufacturer's detailed explanation of their commitment.

<Quote from the manufacturer below>
This is a small model that is the complete opposite of mainstream off-string yo-yos.
This product was created with the aim of further developing off-string tricks.
This is a high-end model that combines the control performance achieved through 13 prototypes with recovery performance that meets JT standards.
The downside is its narrow width, which is fatal for an off-string yo-yo.
However, the downside can also be an advantage.
Tricks that are difficult or impossible to do with a larger yo-yo can be made easier or even possible with a narrower width.
Also, when it comes to performing tricks with a single off-string yo-yo, in theory there are no tricks that can only be done with a larger yo-yo.
Although there is a risk of dropping it, small models like the Shift Change are the most versatile for off-string style.
The body has an ingenious shape and weight distribution to generate rotational force.
Since this is a signature model, it is designed with the gap width preferred by the designer.
We cut with the utmost precision, but unlike metal, plastic materials expand due to the heat generated during production, so it is nearly impossible to mass-produce pieces that are 100% identical.
The numerical values ​​recorded by the machine at the time of completion will be the same, but an error of around 0.01 to 0.05 mm will occur over time.
Since JAPAN TECHNOLOGY adjusts and designs the gap width in increments of 0.02 mm during the design process, this error is significant.
Shift Change is a product targeted at top players who are sensitive to the return of the body. We strive to manufacture with the highest precision, but if there is an error in the playing feel, we will fine-tune it by grinding down the spacer like a looping yo-yo (nylon spacer).
*The JT standard recovery performance required for Shift Change is... when the product is dropped in a spun state from a height of 2.6m, which corresponds to the average height of Japanese people aged 10, 15, 20, and 30, the yo-yo should rebound to a height that is comfortable for people of all ages, and allow the person to pick up the yo-yo again by the string with the least amount of strain and effort.
*When removing spacers, do so at your own risk.

*The packaging may differ from the photo.
