*One postcard autographed by Shingo "Terry" Terada will be included per delivery.
This is the sixth signature model of Shingo Terada, manager of Rewind's Shibuya store, by Turning Point.
Gachiska is a bimetal version of "Mgska," combining an ultra-light magnesium body with a stainless steel rim. Not only is this a very rare combination, but the power produced by the weight difference of the two metals delivers truly "serious" performance.
The magnesium body weighs only about 9g on each side, accounting for only 18 grams of the yo-yo's total weight! With the stainless steel rim accounting for the remaining 40g, or over 85% of the total weight, Gachiska retains the mysterious lightness that is a hallmark of magnesium yo-yos without sacrificing any performance. The longer the combo, the more the power created by the extreme weight balance reveals itself. In the history of Shingo Terada's signature models, this is the most competition-conscious, "gachi" top-of-the-line model.
The ceramic tone coating has been made smoother than before, making it not only comfortable to the touch but also smoother for string hits. The material, size, and texture are all unique, and this yo-yo has the potential to take the forefront of the competition scene.
*The Ceramic Tone coating inevitably produces black spots during processing. Some black patterns may appear, but this is a product specification and not a defect.
Although coated, please wipe dry after use as magnesium itself is an easily corroded material.
