The YoYoFactory Loop 720 - John Ando × Shu Takada version 1 edition was designed to be the absolute best starter looping yo-yo, helping you progress from beginner to novice/advanced tricks with ease and consistency. The all-new body is built around precision components delivering consistent performance with relatively low maintenance (the use of YoYoFactory type 2 looping lube is recommended). The Loop 720 is the model used by world champion Shu Takada of Japan.

YoYoFactory has released a wide variety of Loop 720 colors and side caps designs over the years. Essentially, each release is the same yo-yo, but with different "lipstick". The version in this exhibit sports white (more like light grey) body halves, clear side caps, with a clear sticker with white text imprint. The yo-yo used dark blue (they almost look purple) spacers that gave the yo-yo a slightly wider sting gap that let you do string tricks easier. Red spacers were also available if you wanted a yo-yo with a narrow string gap for doing looping exclusively. You could also use green spacers if you wanted "middle ground" performance for doing both looping and string tricks.

These Loop 720 yo-yos always came with the YoYoFactory Tricks and Secrets mini poster for looping. However, this edition did not, for some reason. Instead, it came with one extra set of side cap stickers (identical to the stickers that were already applied to the side caps, out-of-the-box), and one string.

Released November 25, 2021.
