New Website for a New Decade

New Website for a New Decade

Just finished the brand new website. I made the original website in 2015 - back when things were a bit more primitive and my design/photography was a bit lack luster. I like to believe I've improved over the years although I question it sometimes haha. Last year I updated the packaging for the entire line, so it was only a matter of time before I also redid the website.

Here is the old website for reference, and perhaps to laugh at in a few years time. 

I took a lot of inspiration from a few websites I designed over the years mostly focused on photography. Shopify still handles mostly everything which has been great. Makes the original website feel so dated, Id say this was a success. Anyway gotta get cracking on the 2020 Fulvia release. Thanks for checking this out!

Plastic 000 & Fulvia - 2024 Update
Plastic 000 & Fulvia - 2024 Update

by Jeffrey Pang October 28, 2024

Crazy to think it has been 2 years since the original release of the Plastic Fulvia and Plastic 000. Both models as of now are pretty much sold out everywhere, and I knew it was about time to update both with a small batch of new colors as well as fix a few small issues with the first designs. I appreciate everyone who has reached out anticipating a restock of these - as the manufacturing process is very timely for sure so restocks can't happen as quick as I'd like.

AKURA TI-7068 - A Hollow Ring Yoyo

In January, I released the AKURA MG, a yoyo made from Magnesium. This material has a very low density and I talked about how it performs more like a plastic than anything else. But what made that yoyo really special is the aesthetic. I loved the lines on that yoyo. The proportions with the chunky rims were just perfect. One of the biggest aesthetic challenges though were that after the ceramic coating the lines were quite subtle which hid the design.

Monometal 000 & Fulvia - Designs Rooted In History

Its wild to think that the Fulvia design is now 8 years old - originally released in 2016. This design was developed in titanium with the pursuit of rim weight and stability. So much has changed since then. 2024 was an interesting year with the challenges of moving to a new country while maintaining releases. Not many people realize but I often prototype yoyos for myself and they just never get released. Often they join the rotation of throws I have on the shelf, which never make it to production. The monometal 000 and Fulvia was exactly that - prototypes that I submited earlier this year that just never ended up making it to production.
