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! 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

Turning Point's "Tarasqus" is a mini yo-yo based on their full-size "Leviathan" model. The same high-quality, balance, and design that made the Leviathan popular is also found in the Tarasqus. Designed and manufactured in Japan.

Body is aluminum. Uses a size A Center-Trac ball bearing and K-Pads for response.

Unfortunately, there is no name or other unique identifying marks engraved anywhere on the yo-yo. Not a good way for a quality yo-yo maker to leave a lasting legacy or to help someone unfamiliar with the brand identify it years later.

Original retail price: $115 US.
