I already did that. I wish I could capture the actual Texas Dust Bowl that’s going on right now. The wind has been blowing gusts up to 72 miles an hour since yesterday afternoon, and the sky is orange.

Thank you @YoYoExpertGarrett and @gregoryfromearth! There’s a lot of fun stuff you can do with these balls, and it seemed fitting with the name of the yoyo lol.  
Thanks @MarkD! I’ve played it pretty much every day - maybe I’m still honeymooning with it, but it’s great. It’s everything I’ve come to like in a yoyo, but all in the same yoyo finally.
