Sponsors and Curators
The Museum of Yo-Yo History is a labor of love, and we would not be able to stay up-to-date with exhibits without the support of our sponsors and curators. Big thanks go to One Drop Design and Duncan for supplying us with their latest models, YoYoExpert for their help and support, and to Cody Orr, TotalArtist and YoYoBrothers™ for allowing us to use their collections!
If you're a manufacturer, or just a big collector and you want to help support the Museum drop me at line at chimera@yoyomuseum.com

The Executive is a beautiful, high quality ball bearing yo-yo in a mini-size. This particular model, with blue and yellow swirl anodizing, was initially made available during the first 24 hours of a Kickstarter.com project that launched July 5, 2016. The project was started by professional yo-yoer Doctor Popular of San Francisco. In total, 119 people purchased this colorway in the first 24 hours. The other color that was made available was a solid light green. The Kickstarter project ended July 26, 2016 with a pledged total of $21,258 from 230 backers from around the globe, the majority from the United States.
The Executive was made by One Drop yo-yos of Eugene, Oregon. It came in a nice presentation box. Body is made from 6061 aluminum with One Drop's Pyramatte finish added.
