ooooh, I know you did it justice Bob! level with us, did you throw it any before you prettied it up?
Excited to see that! Which member?
Yes I threw it.
What you think of it? I’m assuming it’s a 7075 gambit?
Plays like a better Summit.
Who would buy solid colors on these Gambits? Trying to see if there would be interest in having some solids. In general a lot of people ask for solids yet they are always the last ones to sell.
I’m a mixed-halves kind of guy for solids. But I’m not all that picky. I’m loving my solid-coloured Prestige. I think it would depend on the particular colours.
But ultimately, tasty Acid Wash is my favourite. Splashes are fine, too, though. I’m easy to please as long as the combinations are nice. 
I was asked to make some keychains for the Gambit by yomagic. They get mailed to yomagic tomorrow morning. I am not sure all the details about his latest batch of Gamits, but if you are lucky you might get one of these awesome handmade leather keychains. I really love making things for this community.

Damn those look good. A nice complement to a serious throw.
Personally I’m more of a Splash/Acid wash fan than a solid myself.
Really impressed with the amount of work going into this. Also, credit again to Jupdyke for being a stand-up bloke. =D
There’s nothing wrong with solid but for me and I believe most of the community, cool looking unique splashes is the way to go, or at least “baped” halves (two colors? I’m not sure if bape applies in this case since I just mean each half a different color. I know there was an argument on the forums when the shutter came out about the use of the word ???)
Oh my. Baped Acid wash would be gorgeous.
Black acid/purple acid halves
Pink w/black acid blue with black acid halves
Blue acid green acid halves etc.
Possibly doing a solid black on the 6061 and the 7075 will probably be in solids as well. A colorway I really liked from the solid ano protos was the clear and blue two tone. Looks so good on it so I may do them blue and clear and sell some switched and some just solid.
What do you guy think?
I like the sound of the blue and clear switched. I would probably want one of those ones ;D
Blue and clear is a great mixed-halves colourway. I’d want to see the splashes before committing to that, though. If the splashes sold out or I wasn’t fond of them, clear + blue is an easy sell if I’m the buyer!
Powder coated Gambit. I didn’t answer the question as to how it plays. There are some throws you should have and some you can pick up just for the heck of it. You should have this one. One of the best all around throws to date.

Awesome so it’s a 7075 Gambit. A true powerhouse.
