Hey guys, One Drop really needs to bring back the Format:C. It’s sad that they created the greatest monometal yoyo of all time which exceeds the performance of some bimetals, then just stopped producing it. With a superior shape and weight distribution for super long spin times, perfect for long, flashy combos, lightning-fast speed and tech combos, intricate mounts, and superior 7075 aluminum, for extra power in horizontal tricks. Join the community at Reddit at: r/FormatCProject. You can also show your support by asking One Drop for a rerun by emailing them at: [onedropdesign@gmail.com](mailto:onedropdesign@gmail.com). Thank you for your support!

Forreal tho, I can get behind this. Format C was one of the first One Drops I can remember trying, and at the time I thought it was one of the best yoyos I’d thrown. Haven’t thrown one since though and yoyo design has come a long way in that time. So it would be interesting to get a re-release to see if it still holds up.

I have one and haven’t thrown it in years. Probably the 2nd or 3rd high end yoyo I bought. I’ll have to dig it out and play it now. Unfortunately it’s pretty dinged up.

I’ve been throwing my Format - C the last few days actually. It’s really quite great. Powerful but not too dense feeling, fairly fast playing for 65+g, decent at horizontal and reliable binds without snags. :+1:

> The problem with the free solo being a better comp based yoyo is the small gap. 4.3mm is too small for comp based tricks imo. The Vtwo would be my choice. And a Ti vtwo i would love

interesting take! i always thought the format:c was a sweet yoyo in its heyday, just not mindblowing what with people raving more about the kuntosh, top deck, valor/vtwo and mmc. 20/20 format:c would be dope though, it’s gonna look way better without the axle holes.

20/20 format:c would go hard. better, updated, cheaper with current OD pricing. good idea.
