Just saw this post on IG. It will have aluminum caps.
October 1st
Wonder how much its gonna be
Over priced to make up for National Yo-Yo mess up.
ā¦ nope
Man just went back and read the thread on the YYD issues. If thereās anything Iām glad I missed in the last 14 months, itās that. Hopefully the TiFHO can be purchased here on good olā YYE, and for a reasonable price considering it will likely have QC issues >.>
They did tag yoyoexpert in the post
My order from the Duncan fiasco vaporized. AND, still no correction email AND their website is still vaporware.
i started yoyoinā 'bout 7 or so years after the fh1 came out. the fhz was the successor.
when the aluminum fh1s came out, i got (2) iām goinā to try and cop this one - more for nostalgia than anythinā else.

sunnyā¦
I should have one also.
$350 is a little steep. Was hoping a larger company could have met a better MOQ and got that down a bit. Oh well guess Iāll be living vicariously through others on this one.
I appreciate the insight! Still out of my price range, but it makes a little more sense when lumping Ti in with other precious metals. I was ignorantly running under the assumptions that itās just a material. An expensive material, but still just raw material. Crazy to think of it as a PM like gold, though it makes sense.
Titanium is not a precious metal.
Gold, silver, and platinum are precious metals.
Wouldnāt miss an opportunity!
Iām honestly content with my gravity. After all the negative press Duncan has received on this forum seems like support should I get a dud would be lack luster.
Looks like I won one. Iāll let yāall know. Merry Christmas!!!
Congrats @Grendel!!!
Thanks buddy!
Ok, itās really sweet. Feels just like my favorite Takeshi FhZ. Itās light, you could almost think itās plastic. Taking it through its paces Itās a fine Duncan. I want to take off the aluminum caps and try it naked however Iām not sure how so Iāve just left it as I got it. Canāt say if the price point is valid because Iāve spent more on less. I like it. First Ti Duncan. I think Iām going to keep it around. Glad to see Duncan finally getting the wooden boxes right. I sent Hoodlum and Deth Mgs and only Dethās box made it home unaltered. If youāve Got the cash and the wantyness then definitely pick one up, if you can, I got this as a prize from another company for Christmas so lucky me however if you purchase one I believe you will be pleased like I am. Anyway thatās all got to say concerning the Ti Freehand. Much thanks from everyone involved from design to manufacturing. Happy New Year yāall!!
The finish is raw and itās nice.
It plays really good with the plastic caps also. The compressed air method works easy.
@yoyodoc also has a video demonstration on the compressed air technique
