Mosquito

Duncan - Mosquito

The small and light Mosquito is easy to handle, a great yo-yo for beginners.

The Mosquito is built for beginners, in the same series as the Freehand. The Mosquito has a body and gap friendly to newcomers, good for beginner's practice, but also for more advanced techniques like brain twister combos. For a ball bearing model it's pretty lightweight, but it's designed for maneauverability, not power. But why is it so light?

Because a lightweight yo-yo is easy to throw, and won't hurt your finger. A good model for children and women, the Mosquito's ball bearing gives it plenty of power for the basics.

The standard setting has friction stickers on both sides, but for more complicated tricks you could remove one of the stickers for a longer sleep. For an adjustable weight, you can check out the Flying Squirrel, linked on the right. The Mosquito is a great model for fundamental practice, and for graduation beyond the basics.
