Playmaxx (Duncraft)
Playmaxx was founded by Donald Duncan Jr. in 1976. At playmaxx Duncan introduced a take apart yo-yo, the "pro-yo", This plastic sided yo-yo had a metal axle which was replaced with a removeable wooden axle a few years later. In 1996 Tom Van Dan Elzen purchased Playmaxx and is still the current owner.
Today, Playmaxx manufactuers a great line of yo-yos including the "pro-yo 2." Of most importance to the woodenyoyo.com is the Roadster that they introduced in late 1999. This all wood fixed axle yo-yo, "The Roadster", is a one of a kind yo. It sleeps well and lands tricks smoothly.
