Original Aqua Eight8eight
Both BLACK and WHITE hubstacks were used
used by Yuuki Spencer to win 2008 World Yo-Yo Contest
Custom art and colors (Gold representing wealth and Red representing prosperity and happiness) adorn the Asia 888. 888 is also considered a desirable number in Chinese due the sounding of 8 being similar to prosperous and the added meaning of three repititions of this.
