A passion project: Blumi 🌼

Hey there!

I’ve always wanted to make a yoyo that encapsulates the classic organic profile, but somehow never got around doing it (with ILYY). So, I decided it’s time to go for it on my own: This is the Blumi

Crafted from 7075 aluminum it combines all the classic traits from the good stuff (FH, YWET, etc.) with a modern 4.5mm gap and state of the art machining.

The profile is old schoolish without any modern cuts or curves. It uses well-rounded off edges for comfort and defined but optically slim rims to keep the looks light and open.

The cup is unmistakably ILYY-esque with the rounded hub but adds an understated engraving of a daisy right in the center, inspired by the Anti-Yo heart.

I went for a soft blast for these prototypes and masked guts for smoother feels.

57mm
40mm
64g

It plays wonderfully, good spin, smooth old schoolish vibes, and sublime hand feels.

Now the big question: is there any interest for these? I haven’t decided yet if I should do a full run.
Let me know. :slight_smile:

I’d be very interested in one of these. Sounds like it has a lot of my favourite characteristics I look for in a yoyo.
