I’ve been really enjoying 5A May, but it has been a bit rougher on my throws than the rest of the year. Just yesterday, I dropped my Legend Wing and cracked the axle.

I’m planning to drill the axle out and glue in a new one, so hopefully it’ll get a second life.

What damage have you caused this 5A May?

Got two marks on my Ti Sunbird after smashing it against concrete! Deep enough to feel but would have been a much worse flat spot/gash on my other throws.

Then I realized they cause a nice ringing sound when you put a fingernail to them while spinning. Now my tibird also has a silver ring around the rim where the anno is gone because I used a bearing tool to make some sweet tunes!
