Shutter Wide Angle featured in Popular Science

Fun is the theme of the Summer edition of Popular Science magazine. Inside the summer edition you will find science related articles about: skateboards, pinewood derby, backyard sports, programming video games, robots, dune buggies, dolls, laughter, surfing, bowling balls, and most importantly yo-yos!
What’s really great is that the article is about modern competitive yo-yos, not and while the article itself is kind of short, the two-page spread features some pretty snazzy YoyoFactory Wide Angle Shutters!
It’s nice to see modern yo-yoing get some coverage from such a long-running (almost 150 years!) and prestigious magazine.
And Popular Science is giving their summer issue away for free! You can get a digital copy here: https://www.popsci.com/

Of course we all know that the Wide-Angle Shutter (or the Wangle) is the signature model of world yoyo champ Gentry Stein.
And hey! What a coincidence! You can get a Shutter Wide Angle at the Motmot Shop!
