 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

From the doctorpopular.com website:
"An ultralight modern responsive yo-yo manufactured in Eugene, OR. A brand new style of yo-yo inspired by old school play. This version of the Weekender has been updated with a fingerspin area on the sides, which is great for doing pull-starts. These fingerspin cups also add a little more weight than the original Weekenders, which most folks seem to prefer."
On Thursday, April 14, 2022, the Weekender yo-yo, version 2, was released in solid colors of red, orange, and blue . The energy dome hub nubs that were found on the Weekender, version 1, were replaced with finger spin cups that let you do “pull-starts” to get the yo-yo spinning. The finger spin cups were not new to Doctor Popular's yo-yos. The feature was first introduced on his Icarus yo-yo in 2018.
On Monday, August 29, 2022, the Weekender, version 2 was released again in solid colors, this time in yellow (seen in this exhibit) and purple.
