From boutique yoyo companies.
A foray into experimental yoyo design, MK 1 yoyos was founded by Mark Diehr in 2018. MK1 Yoyos has a few designs under their belt, and were the first to join our lineup of Craft Yoyo companies with the launch of the Exia Yoyo.

Thesis invested into minimalist designs, premium packaging, and accessories to optimize the experience of receiving a yoyo. First impressions matter a lot to Shivum and Thesis is here to impress.

Shop Dressel Designs"ilinx" is the Greek word for whirlpool. Recently adopted by game theorists and sociologists, ilinx describes a form of play that is based in physical self disorientation. When studied and practiced, this form of play can induce a state of mind known as "flow". You may know flow as the feeling you get when you breeze through a test that you studied for all week, when you play a song just right for the first time, or when you score that seemingly impossible goal. Flow occurs when your skill level and the difficulty level of your task are equal; flow is the moment that your abilities break new ground on your limits. Skill-toys are flow generators as there is always something new to practice and master.
Shop ilinxWhen Few and Far Between yoyos made their first yoyo, we knew we wanted to carry them as part of the Craft Yoyo lineup, but it didn't work it out.
