Bumble Bee

Duncan - Bumble Bee

Duncan's looping yo-yo, making use of its cork braking pads.

The cork braking pads on the Bumble Bee are its defining characteristic, rare these days. The maintenance for this response system is basically the same as any other, but the real difference is the feel that cork gives. This feeling has deep roots in yo-yo culture, so a lot of old-school players still prefer this response system. The cork is pretty durable, minimizing the need for maintenance. For this reason it's easy to recommend this model for beginners as well.
