Museum of Yo-Yo History


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!

The Roadster was a one piece wooden yo-yo, designed as a looper. Traditional design and construction. The sides were slightly concave for better weight distribution. The company machining these for Playmaxx accidentally made them slightly oversized, and Playmaxx stayed with the larger diameter because it added to the functionality of the Roadster. Pictured here is the most common logo used on the roadster, of several released versions.
