The Duncan Freehand Zero - Mid-East Regional features side caps in blue with a white imprint. These alternate side cap sets were specifically produced for sale at the 2004 Mid-East Regional Yo-Yo Contest. They were designed to fit the corresponding Duncan Freehand Zero - 2004 Mid-East Regional yo-yo.
In 2004, Steve Brown, who was working for Duncan at the time, introduced the updated Freehand Zero (FHZ) to the yo-yo community. This model was an improved version of the original Duncan FreeHand.
The contest served as a regional championship for players from six states: Indiana, Kentucky, Michigan, Ohio, Tennessee, and West Virginia. It was part of a larger system of regional competitions that culminated in the U.S. National Yo-Yo Contest in Chico, California
On the aftermarket, you may occasionally come across white-bodied Mid-East Regional FreeHand Zeros with alternate side cap colors, such as sky blue with a white imprint, like the ones featured in this exhibit. These are typically found loose rather than sealed in a polybag. Additionally, these special side caps may sometimes be sold as standalone sets, without the white yo-yo body.
