Pro Series Stacking Cups Are Coming



Signed and endorsed by former world champion and record holder Emily Fox, the Pro Series Stacking Cups are newly-designed cups that will enable stackers to stack faster and with fewer fumbles. What's really cool is that the bag holding your cups are gone, and instead the cups are held together by a single quick release stem. No more struggling to put the cups in or take them out of the bag.

During a recent road trip, my kids and I visited the Speed Stacks office in Colorado and were given the grand tour by Mark Lingle, WSSA Director. We also got to test the new Pro Series stacking cups. They looked really cool and sharp, but unfortunately, we were asked not to blog about it until the official release. Well, I just heard from Rachael Nedrow (Oregon's fastest stacker and new member of Team USA) that the Pro Series are now officially on sale in Hong Kong.

Here's hoping that the cups will be available for sale here soon. I'm hoping to be among the first to get a set of the stacks. So far, I've seen the Pro Series in two colors, black and white (it's listed as "clear" on the HK Speed Stacks website).

You can also see a video of the Pro Series cups in action on YouTube.

I'm also very anxiously awaiting the availablility of the Pro Series cups here in the US!!!! They look really neat and I think the surface on the top edge of the cup will make it easier to upstack.

I checked with Speed Stacks and their customer representative says U.S. release of Pro Series cups is third week of September. That's a long wait!
