The DoubleJoker is a yo-yo released in 2010 by YoYoJoker as their first ever product. It is the latest signature series yo-yo of none other than four-time concurrent World Champion Daisuke Shimada.
Description[]
The DoubleJoker is made of aluminum with an H-shaped Inverse Round profile that minimizes sleep loss, along with the insides being excavated to protect stability and to push the rim weight to the outer edges for longer spinning. This makes the yo-yo fit well in most hands, along with being naturally stable at any angle, also making it great for horizontal play. Another distinguishing feature is the small plastic side caps affixed to the sides of the yo-yo printed in gold leaf, a nod to Shimada's origins in Team YoYoJam. It also comes with silicone Joker Pad response, and a string-centering KonKave C-bearing from Dif-e-Yo.
