K3 Thunderbolt yo-yo
Irresponsive yo-yo, sold individually, with 1 string and delivered with molded hubstacks. It is complete and ready to use.
K3 Thunderbolt metallic yo-yo for 1A, 3A and 5A:
This yo-yo is designed to practice the 1A playstyle (the playstyle most commonly practiced by serious yo-yoists).
The K3 Magic YoYo is slightly undersized and completely made of metal. It is equipped with hubstacks (mounted on ball bearings on either side of the yo-yo). This is a very fast and fun yo-yo to use!
NetJuggler's opinion on the K3 Thunderbolt:
The ball bearing has a concave shape which improves sensations: the string stays well in the center of the bearing, which limits friction and allows to gain both speed and stability.
Excellent yo-yo, beautiful design. We particularly appreciate the quality of the hubstacks which have an ergonomic shape and which allow the yo-yo to be well maintained between the fingers.

Level of the user:
This yo-yo requires knowing how to "Bind". The bind is the return mode of the yo-yo to the hand. This is a trick that must be mastered in order to be able to bring the yo-yo up in the hand. This practice is necessary for all irresponsive yo-yos.
This yo-yo is intended for a style of play where tricks are performed on the string, namely 1A, 3A and 5A. This model is recommended from 8 years by the manufacturer. NetJuggler notes that the most appropriate age would be from 14 years old (except for children who are already used to handling items requiring a certain dexterity).

Good morning,
I would like to buy a yo-yo for my 22-year-old son who plays the toy yo-yo but wants to improve and learn tricks.
I put the Henry's Snake in my basket for 19 euros.
What do you think about it???

Hello, do you know when you will have the K3 in red?
By the way, I come from a flex gap, do you think K1 is a good continuation?

Unlike the FlexGap yoyo, the K3 yoyo is equipped with a large ball bearing that makes it irresponsive all the time. This is a yoyo that will offer better performance in 1A. On the other hand, you should not venture into Offstring with the K3 yoyo (Offstring = 4A = discipline where the yoyo is not attached to the string). The K3 is made of aluminum, so it is more fragile than the Flex Gap. We are starting to have a serious yoyo in our hands with possibilities to evolve much further than with the Flex Gap, which still remains, it must be said, in the toy field.
Hello, I've been playing yoyos for five months now with my first yoyo, the Magicyoyo K1 Spin. I'd now like to change yoyos and buy a metal one. Which one would you recommend?
Which metal yo-yo should you choose to start?
If you're still a beginner, I think all metal yoyos will be good to start with. As a beginner, I find that you don't really feel the nuances of mass and size/shape of yoyos. I would tend to guide you towards a yoyo that you like visually.
What is the difference between yoyos?
Once you start to get good at it, the shape, weight distribution, and size of the yo-yo will all have an impact on your playing. Some yoyos are more dynamic than others. Some have better inertia because they are larger and heavier. Others, smaller ones, will pass more easily between the strings if you decide to do tricks with a lot of "knots."
