from C3yoyodesign

The Classic Reborn After 15 Years! The POM & PC Hybrid “Halo 2026” Arrives, Blending Retro Aesthetics with a Modern Soul.

Back in 2011, the first-generation Halo debuted as C3‘s very first machined Delrin (POM) yo-yo, becoming a global favorite for its smooth precision and accessible value.

The spark for this 2026 revival came at a Japanese yo-yo meet, where a player’s simple request, ”Could C3 release a High-Wall yo-yo?“ stuck with C3 co-founder Simpson. Seeking to bring pure joy back to daily play amidst today‘s high-pressure competition, Simpson searched C3’s design archives and locked onto the classic silhouette: ”It‘s you! HALO!!“

Timeless Silhouette Meets Contemporary Engineering
99% Original Profile with Subtle Tweaks: Specs feature 57.66mm diameter / 43.18mm width / 67.4g weight. It preserves 99% of the original 2011 round shape, with only a subtle 1mm extension added to the caps to enhance modern catch confidence. The High-Wall transition has been finely tweaked for smoother string releases and cleaner binds.

The Harmony of POM & PC: This new chapter features a machined POM body paired with premium polycarbonate (PC) caps, utilizing today’s high-precision manufacturing to realize a hybrid combination impossible in the past. It perfectly blends the solid, soapy touch of premium POM with the lightweight, breezy feel of PC.

Re-imagined Weight Distribution: The inner distribution has been completely overhauled, utilizing a precision metal spacer system that centralizes core weight. This ensures a balanced, exceptionally stable, and smooth spin that feels incredibly comforting in play.

Graceful Modern Play: The updated PC caps feature an elegantly engineered fingerspin spot and dedicated rim lips, allowing players to seamlessly execute Thumb Grinds, Corkscrews, and high-visibility DNA tricks on a retro canvas.
