The Toonie

A couple years back we first introduced The Loonie. A brass micro-yo-yo the size of a Canadian $1 coin. One of the first responses we got was "You need to make a bi-metal version called The Toonie." (Because Canada's $2 coin is copper in the middle with a steel outer ring).

So we went back to the drawing board with the goal of making the best performing micro yo-yo we could.

The Toonie has an aluminum body with a stainless steel ring that lets us push weight to the right place for stability. You probably won't use it to win the world yo-yo championship. But it's the perfect yo-yo to throw in your pocked with your spare change to practice your precision on those long combos!

This micro yo-yo is designed with a size A ball bearing axle and a gap that supports most bulk 'normal' sized strings. It plays best with a thinner string though.
