I randomly had an idea. Could you have a yoyo thats just one piece of metal and an axle through the center, then put a bearing on each side with smaller steel sides on it? Would use two strings that go on same hand or maybe one on each hand idk this is just a random concept i thought of lol ---

In theory u could do anything u wanted but Im pretty sure ud want the heaviest parts on the outside. Also string. tricks would be extremely difficult. ---

No idea not really a yo-yo so make one try it snd start your own vertical. Then be the Duncan of whatever you call it. ---

This kind of makes me think of double dragon. The main issue is that with each their the strings get twisted. I suggest checking out double dragon play to see what I mean. Mike ---

Two strings (on seperate bearings) would probably make it tilt a lot. Maybe build one for fun and see? ---

I mean i did say thered be steel rims on outside of the bearing…theyd just have to be big enough to wrap the string. And you could technically do a bind on one of the strings and catch the yoyo and have the other string just hanging free Idk man just throwing it out there in the world lol just a concept ---

I am by no means a technical wizard when it comes to all things yo-yo but this actually seems like it might be an interesting “off string” design.
