It looks kind of generic but good nonetheless. Kind of a mix between a project and G5. That combination should be an awesome one. Most yo-yos (I believe, correct me if I’m wrong) are made with CNC lathes because doing it by hand would be very hard and in-accurate. It could be done, i think, with a CNC machine. I’m not 100% sure so don’t quote me on this.
