The Aqua is the newest generation of Astrojax! Aqua balls are liquid-filled and are larger and heavier than standard Astrojax balls. The outer shell is a soft, flexible casing for the liquid, providing an easy, comfortable grip. The string length is adjustable and is also typically set to a larger scale, taking the Aqua into the realm of larger, more physical play.
Rather than a central metal weight like standard Astrojax, the dynamics of the Aqua's fluid flows lowers the rotational inertia of the balls to provide smooth orbits and prevent tangling of the string around the center ball. The fluid dynamics gives the orbits, particularly vertical orbits, a slightly different feel than that of standard Astrojax.
Stringbuds at each end of the string allows for quick and easy tuning. You can alter the length of the string to your particular style of play, or swap strings, buds or balls with other Aquas. The Aquas strings have a smooth circular weave and, to suit the heavier balls and more physical play of the Aquas, are thicker and heftier than standard Astrojax string. The Aqua “Shiva” Edition is packaged with an extra long, neon-green string and baby-blue stringbud. Collect all three editions and tune your own unique Aqua! This cool new version of Astrojax is also UV-sensitive... Wait ‘til you see your Shiva under a blacklight!
