HANDQUAKE 2 - Working Breakfast - Limited
The "Handquake 1.4" was HSPIN's first EVER yoyo, launched in 1998. It was inspired by Tom Kuhn's Silver Bullet 2, with a miniature bearing, custom axle and a gap width adjustable by adding shims. It was perfection in its infancy, and the foundation for us to become a Swiss boutique yoyo designer.
For HSPIN's 25th anniversary, we wanted to give the Handquake a time warp of development, so we added to it pretty much everything we have learned in 25 years of designing an array of convention-defying yoyos.
The HANDQUAKE 2 therefore sports HSPIN's iconic 5x11x5 bearing and the axle nut first introduced with the GOOD&EVIL, the invincible M3 axle and the shmoove of the PYRO, and recessed friction pads which the GOOD&EVIL 2 world-premiered. The HANDQUAKE 2 comes with two interchangeable bearings to allow for a 3mm gap for old school play and a 5mm gap for unresponsive modern play.
The HANDQUAKE 2 is an outstanding every-day yoyo to carry with you at work or school. It even fits into your suit pocket without bulging.
HSPIN would like to thank Hadrien B. for year-long support and realizing the technical drawings for this release.
