THE STORY OF OWEN
“It’s time! I am ready!” Owen (not his real name) has finally mastered a grand total of 25 tricks on the yo-yo trick ladder and is all psyched up for his first yo-yo competition ever.
“What is lacking is a good haircut,” his mum tells him. They scurried to the nearest barber to get a last-minute haircut for his competition the next day.
“What would you like today?” the barber asks. Owen thought for a second and had a “eureka” moment, “something classic and timeless, like an organic shaped yo-yo!”
The barber replied, “Say no more.”
The rest is history.
THE YO-YO
The Bowl 7068 is an ultimate player’s tool in the arsenal for the most iconic haircut ever! The Bowl 7068 is based on the same design as its titanium cousin and has the same diameter and width of 56 mm and 45 mm, respectively. It just feels right in the hand and even better on your budget.
Weighing 64.0g, this organic delight is just that… light. Light enough, you won’t even know the barber has it on your head! It’s also better for your neck. The 4.4mm gap allows you to sweep out any hair that might be trapped during the haircut of your lifetime.
The Bowl 7068, as the name suggests, is made of the 7068 version of the aluminium alloy, the strongest of the aerospace aluminium alloy available to machine a yo-yo. DISCLAIMER: No barbers were harmed by dissatisfied customers.
What’s that you say… you don’t like your haircut? Well, we never said you SHOULD use this to cut your hair… we just mentioned you COULD use it. You know what they say… fashion is subjective. But what isn’t is the playability of one of the most enduring yo-yo designs out there. And if you weren’t one of the few that got their hands on the Titanium edition, here’s your chance to buy into the hair-club for mankind.
WHAT’S IN THE BOX
Foldable metal scissors with logo engraving
Wooden comb with logo engraving
Barber chair woven patch
Pink fishcake pads and yellow ramen string
Bowl 7068 logo sticker
Japanese wave print cloth
A custom engraved scissors and comb, together with the Bowl 7068, are all you need to achieve the ultimate Bowl cut for your next yo-yo competition.
We know you will love your haircut so much that you would want to bring the barber chair home. But let’s face it, we can’t ship you one of those. So instead, we’ve included a barber chair woven patch so you can feel like you’re not far from the barbershop at every glance. We also included a sticker of the barber’s table for those who want it all.
As a tribute to its titanium cousin, every Bowl 7068 will come wrapped and protected in a Kimono-grade Japanese Furoshiki fabric in a wave square pattern. So wipe the hair off your brow and get playing!
We’re throwing in a long yellow strand of Owen’s hair, which is excellent for whips and rejections. Custom pink Ramen Fishcake yo-yo pads, which came with the titanium Bowl, are included. Don’t worry about getting hair in this food! You’ll see… it just works!
