YoYoFactory - 44 (Fourty-four)
In Japanese, 44 can be read as "yo-yo." The 44 is a standard full metal yo-yo from YoYoFactory.
The number 44 is often seen in the yo-yo world, but it isn't often clear as to why. In Japanese, numbers can often be used to create words. While 44 would be read as "yon yon" normally, it has been adopted by the yo-yo community to read "yo-yo" instead. To the Japanese players, it doesn't get any more straightforward than this. But this yo-yo doesn't rely on its name as a gimmick; the width and diameter and weight are all standard for an undersized yo-yo. Its size is close to the Chaotic or Messiah, making it ideal for intricate string tricks. Its weight is neither too high or too low, at a healthy 66 grams. It has a round wing shape, popular since the days of the Freehand, giving a great feeling and sense of control. Instead of the hubstacks of the 888, 44 has a slight bulge around the axle similar to the Primo. It also has a slightly lower edge than the 888.
Without any peculiarities, the 44 is easy to recommend to anyone. Newcomers to the world of binding, fans of undersized yo-yos, and top players alike, the 44 is good for everyone.
*Other than the blue/black version, the 44 comes in the Fundametal series' white packaging.
