Ready to learn a new style of play?! Counterweight, also known as Freehand, also known as 5A, uses a dice or ball attached to the end of your yo-yo string instead of attaching the string to your finger. This cool style allows you to "let go" completely and perform tricks a completely new way.

The new Duncan Rapid Ball is a fun new counterweight design from Duncan. It is a textured round plastic ball with a string groove around the outside and a hole through the middle. Attach the string by securing it around the string groove or looping it through the hole like a traditional counterweight.
