Nice!

DidleySquat? Yikes? Those would be funny names for tops, but I guess are not the final ones.

I guess the bodies are anodized aluminum; but perhaps the caps are plastic?
The center of gravity must be pretty high. I wonder how they play.

Those tips look big! Nice clearance for big scoop  :)

I am very glad to see another company getting in the action. Even more glad that it is from a "new" country to top tricking. Actually, there have being other Australian manufacturers of throw tops but I don't recall any players. Hopefully we will have some posting here soon (Kahli?)

That is completely awesome.  I love Werrd's products already and knowing Stu, these will be amazing.

WOW pretty good looking tops. Seems like they will have that sharp crown tip, like the Spintastics. For the fixed tip it will be nice to have it more lava-lamp style... and the groves should be string friendly or just non-existing...hmmm thinking in a mod or two already...

Where do they sell there stuff on?

Werrd Up!

Some cool looking tops there.  I could be wrong but I think that YYJ had their dual-tip design patented here in the US.  If I'm correct, I hope that won't be a hindrance to Werrd selling their double-ender over here.

BTW, what's all the bruhaha about grooves?  I'm no expert, but the Spintastics tops all have grooves and they don't seem detrimental to performance.  The 1st-gen Mexi-Turbo is grooved also and I just don't see the problem.

I think grooves are pretty much just a decorative element and I for one like the way they look on certain tops.  Are there some grooved tops that have a string-catching problem or something?
