Hello! I hope you’re doing great! A couple of months ago, I posted a survey here, regarding yo-yos. I wanted to see if players would still support the idea of a new project. The massive community participation gave me the strength and the zest to take on a new project for the yo-yoing community. **Thank you so much!!** Please, let me share it with you. Barco Yo-Yos is not a company (yet!). It’s a brand for giving my ideas a name, since everybody asks which brand makes a yo-yo/strings/etc. I have told you the story of the Energy in 2008/09. Eleven years have passed, and the Energy stands among players as one of the best yo-yos made by a brazilian brand. It is now outdated, so it wouldn’t be a good idea to do another run of it. **That’s why I proudly present the Energy 2.0!** It may look the same for the unsuspecting, but don’t be fooled! The Energy 2.0 keeps the same organic feel we all know and love, with a modern twist. First thing you’ll notice in your hand is that it’s much lighter at **62g**. That’s because of the rounded lowered inner walls and thinned/lowered spike, which makes it more stable, lighter, and automatically takes the weight concentration to the rims. The new model also sports a **4mm gap** with a 10-ball stainless steel concave bearing, and standard response pads. The larger gap makes this throw 1mm larger, at **40mm wide**. ![D7B3ABD1-68EB-484A-9269-C37330196E37](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/yoyoexpert1/original/4X/5/d/4/5d476592228c54786cb971d5d98fb31e8ce016e9.jpeg) This yo-yo plays **SO GOOD** I can’t even describe. The photo doesn’t make it justice! Only 100 units are available, and most of them have very small ano flaws on the inside (sorry!). I hope the Energy is something to give the community support and joy! **We also are very proud to announce we’re official sponsors of the Brazilian National Yo-Yo Contest** , to be held on **November, 7th in São Paulo** ( **HOORAY!!** ). If you’d like to keep updated, please follow us on Instagram **@barcoyoyos** (or just PM me… that’s cool, too!). Keep rocking! Felipe Barco - Barco Yo-yos #throwitlikeyoumeanit ---

I thought it would be a surprise to receive an e-mail, since we haven’t talked since the survey. But I really wanted to give something back, and tell you that your support was essential to this project! Here are some more pictures! I’m sorry not to have added them before. ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/yoyoexpert1/original/4X/6/7/6/67604b2870173d83ad2cf4f667a7ee9403a67bf2.jpeg) ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/yoyoexpert1/original/4X/e/8/c/e8c2d76ebfa111a39c8d097d666e80ce0b2157af.jpeg) ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/yoyoexpert1/original/4X/3/2/2/322181d62a1a8143889ae0d7102f127ad28343da.jpeg) The pads were also made by me. They grab a little more on binds without making the yo-yo responsive! I’m selling these. They will be sold for US$ 25 + shipping (PP G&S included). I’m just trying to figure the best way to ship. I don’t even know if I can use this topic for this. Maybe I should open a FS thread? Anyway… let me help with whatever I can! ---
