Totally agree, just look at the Stradivari…

also, S-Kon make some crazy yoyo too.

Doesn’t look crazy but the new luftwerk yoyo is pretty insane regarding rim weight and wall thickness. Seems Jeffery is really going for all out performance.

I would love to prototype this one day just to see how crazy it is, but it doesn’t really have any practicality :P. It has a concave cup so you could put a pen through that hole to “pen spin” but that’s about it.

it would not the tolerances would be throw on and if you look its actually lopsided because it was distorted when he lofted it. these designs are only ideas and most likely will never be made. If you want one of his designs buy a hydra.

Anyway, what’s the definition on this 'Craziest yoyo design?

Many cuts with little to no impact on performance?  
Machining time?  
Number of parts involved?  
Design that are highly unlikely to have a smooth spin? or at least work as a regular yoyo?  
Unusual material?  
Weird gimmicks?  
Unbelievable performance?  
Etc?

I think there are many yoyo that are ‘unique’, but ‘crazy’?, I don’t really know.

Example; Bist Stradivari, S-Kon Nostalgia, Bist Tondo, Active People Delta.  
I know there’s more, but these just some that I got on the top of my head.

The OP says just on a “shape” alone basis. Maybe Stigma, Noctu, or Stalker come to mind. :-\
