As the years go by, the trends change with yoyo styles, and size.  
If you had a custom yoyo made for you, what size and weight would you choose?  
Feel free to throw in any other requirements 🙂

</div>

54 diameter, 63-64 weight, blast (whatever was used on the blasted Prestige is fine!), something comfortable on the catch, so not a severe “V” shape, but it can be mostly V transitioning to semi-organic near the rims.

Spike would be nice, but if it’s there it’s gotta be acute enough to be used for matador! None of these dull spikes that can’t be used. Otherwise, the dimply thing in the Prestige actually works pretty good for matador, so one of those. :wink:

4.2-4.5mm gap. None of this 3.9 or 5.0mm madness

Stock with profiled but not grooved bearing (ie. CT, KK, Whipple/Delta)

Around 64 grams and a 51-52 diameter with a model 10 shape, I guess a smaller M10 🙂

52mm, 59g. Similar shape to the Uragment/Fragment, maybe with a spike or something in the cup. So tired of V-shaped 65-68g, 54-57mm yoyos.

After seeing Nathan’s message, it occurred to me that I could go even lighter than the 63-64 I mentioned. My favourite yoyo lately is the 49g Pacquiao. :wink:

Ernie

Why not just produce a Titanium version of the KLR. I absolutley love that shape, and using Titanium would allow you to tweak the weight distribution with a lot of granularity.

That’s my suggestion.

Diameter: 53mm  
Width: 45mm  
Weight: 66g  
It would have a very open catch zone with bigger rounded rims, and a more even distribution so it gives of a good amount of float.

Of course, diameter, weight, and width don’t define how a yoyo will feel and play, but this is generally what I like my yoyos at.
