Yeah maybe, that might be more of an H shape. That’s kinda an H, W hybrid shape. ---

I mean like a playoff bracket. I’m just thinking for the shape vote for example, that while organic has the highest percentage of votes, it’s still less than 50%, so it’s possible that if we factored secondary choices a different shape would end up being chosen. ---

Good idea. I might do this again and try that. We will see if organic can pass 50% ---

W is a hybrid of V and H. That could be considered a W, though it leans more heavily toward the V side. The One Drop Benchmark series might be a good reference (though their H is maybe not quite H enough). An artist I am not, but maybe this helps as well: ![20240526_200905](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/yoyoexpert1/original/4X/a/3/b/a3b7f174cd2aa13cdaf446cb9e62e5334eb7ead2.jpeg) The lines do seem to get a bit blurred: what technically might be a W-shaped yoyo (according to my understanding) with thin rims at an angle only slightly flared/offset from the response bump and/or catch zone could easily be called a V. This is especially true with bimetals (e.g. no one would call the ZGRT Durendal a W); likewise, technical Ws with wider rims are frequently called H-shapes (e.g. Edge Beyond is truly a W, imo). The angle from the response bump to rim is a better indicator than the rim angle, from my understanding. > [@AtomicChessGuy](#): > > Like that? I would consider this a rounded W that leans more to the H end of the spectrum. It of course gets more grey with yoyos that are aren’t “hard” \_\_ shapes. Rounded Hs seem to be very popular (e.g. Shutter). Anyways, sorry for the lecture. I just really like my Ws, as they seem to perform the best to my liking. They have the power and stability of Hs, with the speed and maneuverability of Vs (without the discomfort). Hope that helps. ---

I voted H. But I’m ok with an Organic as long as it’s not full on organic…Like more Yoyofactory Kapital give it a bit of a response Bump please. ---

We’ll see how it turns out. If it’s cool, and enough people are interested, we could possibly do a preorder to get proto production rolling. ---

If it is a tossup. Take the 2 most popular shapes and create a hybrid of them. An organic H hybrid is also very good!! 😃 ---

Just to be designed in CAD this won’t be machined but I would for it to be machined. I have been trying to get my designs made for a while but I just don’t have the money for it. ---

Don’t mean to be the wet blanket but I would just point out that the amount of work, knowledge and responsibility needed to do some kind of limited, potentially crowd funded, run of yoyos is a lot more than just doing a fun mock-up CAD design and it can get quite messy if it goes wrong. I think it’d probably keep things more fun for the community and put less pressure on AtomicChessGuy to just keep this as a community CAD for now rather than pushing for it to be something more at the moment. ---

I think I agree. Maybe later I can get one of these designs made through the community or somewhere else but for now I think this is just a fun little project. ---
