Cajun Spinner's 11th release Al E. Gaituh yeaux-yeaux in a rusty flat brown color with rust orange/brown highlights.
From Cajun Spinner's:
"Featuring Al E. Gaituh and his favorite saying, "If it doesn't say Cajun Spinner's, It's Not A Yeaux-Yeaux". Al is Cajun Spinner's official yo-yoing, skateboarding, cool swamp creature and our official mascot whose shadowy figure was featured on our Tournament Yeaux-Yeaux packaging that asked, "WHO AM I?"
This all wood 3-piece Yeaux-Yeaux is made in a wide gap (classic butterfly) style, with rubber o-rings to protect the rims (plus they look cool). A lot of attention was given to the finely polished and concaved axle for great performance."

• Rusty flat brown with with rust orange/brown highlights and brown rubber O-rings (seen in this exhibit)

The Acadiana flag on the face of this yo-yo has a blue and red background, three white fleur-de-lis, a gold castle, and a gold star in a white triangle. The flag represents the Acadian ethnic region of Louisiana.
Here's what the symbols mean on the flag:
• The three white fleur-de-lis on a blue background represent the French heritage of the Acadians.
• The gold castle on a red field represents the Spanish colonial rule in the region when the Acadians arrived.
• And finally, the gold star on a white field represents "Our Lady of the Assumption", the patroness of the Acadians. The star also symbolizes the Acadians' participation in the American Revolution. |  |
