1. Yomega- Yomega was founded in 1983, and in 1984 released the Yomega Brain. Its yoyos have led to many yoyoing booms, such as the yoyo craze of 1998. Yomega continues to make high quality responsive yoyos. They are based in Fall River, Massachusetts.
2. Yoyofactory- Yoyofactory was founded in 2001 by Benjamin McPhee and Hans Van Dan Elzen. They make high quality unresponsive* yoyos. One of their most famous innovations was F.A.S.T. or Fully Adjustable Starburst Technology. It makes use of teeth that allow you to change how responsive the yoyo is.
3. Yoyojam- Yoyojam was founded in 2000, and has made many different yoyos. They are known for making signature yoyos for members of their yoyo team and then selling them to the public. (I have one- the Eric Koloski signature New Breed). They are based in Palm Beach, Florida.
4. Duncan- Duncan is the world's most well known yoyo company and makes many yoyos. They have some high quality unresponsive yoyos, and sell the famed duncan freehand MG, which retails for $400!
*unresponsive means the yoyo does not come back up when you pull it. This is good for grinds, and tricks such as plastic whip and suicide.
