This is a special release of the Yoyojam SpinFaktor, and one of their first signature series models. Linda Sengpiel, now deceased, was one of the most famous female yo-yo demonstrators in the old days. In construction, it is a standard SpinFaktor, but with Golden weight rings and special logo, in a special color.

There are two versions of this model. Pictured here is the second release. The first release also featured engraved weight rings. While the second did not, the second release was more limited and fewer were made like this one.

YoYoJam's SpinFaktor, sometimes called the original SpinFaktor, was their first model with composite body construction, and their first high performance model. The first releases had no side caps, and had the logo information engraved on the rims. Pictured here is the second version without engraved rims, with a logo side cap on the sides.

The outside of the yo-yo is a rubber O-Ring, to protect the yo-yo when it touched the ground. While this technically had no response system, even this early model had the round molding holes around the bearing, which acted as a weak starburst response.
