# Introducing our first monometal: **Forma** Forma came to be due to a conversation with @fradiger and our shared love for mid-school throws. We were reminiscing about mid-school and modern designs and got talking about blending a few designs into something different: - CLYW Chief - Ikimono Tomo - OneDrop Cascade - YYR x OneDrop SYFO A few messages later, Frad dropped this photo with the following quote: > “Theres a good yoyo in there, _somewhere_, because i like all these yoyos.” ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/yoyoexpert1/original/4X/3/e/8/3e87e5216dd3c2129031419d7377f7e3e716dd19.jpeg) The first concept would feature a polycarbonate inner ring forming a double rim, paired with a TP x CLYW-inspired profile. However as the vision evolved—leaning more into the Cascade and SYFO influences—we scrapped it for a cleaner monometal approach that better fit the SYFO/Cascade direction: **MMP-01** ![initial idea with PC inner ring](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/yoyoexpert1/original/4X/e/6/7/e67138347b248ed7df4aa058eb75e72d2d7a1741.jpeg) ![MMP-01 v1](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/yoyoexpert1/original/4X/4/f/2/4f2ea4710394fcbc19844c0f1b2e4683951bdc95.jpeg) ![MMP-01 v1 Cup](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/yoyoexpert1/original/4X/2/7/e/27e2225d265dcdbe54a624a6431bfbe7b05cb44c.jpeg) MMP-01 final renders prior to prototyping: ![MMP-01 Final](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/yoyoexpert1/original/4X/0/3/4/03472c76b6e556a2031aa7539f55f8033cfc389c.jpeg) ![MMP-01 Final CAD](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/yoyoexpert1/original/4X/2/e/a/2ea2f44b4dd79e6bc903ea8e635ad6f6a5e90349.jpeg) ![MMP-01 prototype](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/yoyoexpert1/original/4X/d/c/e/dcebb0c01d3a7116850e59d041e3afa572461733.jpeg) Sadly MMP-01 wasn’t it though. It couldn’t handle impacts and vibed slightly from factory, so we went back to the drawing board. Enter **MMP-02** , later named _Forma_. ![Screenshot 2024-10-13 003543](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/yoyoexpert1/original/4X/e/5/7/e57c0d2f5fd601575d6c92204f09d640f2ff92c1.jpeg) ![Lotaxi Machined 6061 Prototype](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/yoyoexpert1/original/4X/a/2/9/a29cfc7995abc6f0ecddd48223b4d2dac348677e.jpeg) Forma went through three rounds of prototyping across three different shops: one in the U.S. (@Lotaxi), one at FPM, and one at TopYo. Around that time, there was a lot of behind-the-scenes chatter about inconsistent lead times, machining quality, and communication issues with OEMs. It felt like the right moment to test the waters and get a firsthand look at how each shop handled the process. Although we would go on to prototype in both 7068 and 6061, the 6061 version just felt right—durable, comfortable, and locked into that midschool-inspired vibe that put _feel_ first. Let’s be real—this wouldn’t be an Edition yo-yo if it didn’t still pack performance as a mainstay trait. The result? Forma is about execution—pacing your tricks, constructing with intention, and feeling the flow in your play. It packs power so that it doesn’t demand perfection, but it shines when your execution is clean and your transitions are thoughtful. ![DSCF8693_1](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/yoyoexpert1/original/4X/8/e/d/8ede63674f2773b265fcc0223baab8dd8acfdeae.jpeg) **Available now on the Edition Yoyo storefront with the following colors:** ![DSCF8710](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/yoyoexpert1/original/4X/6/a/9/6a97dde54c8f33d0c3499287e74e45fb051c079f.jpeg) ![DSCF8716](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/yoyoexpert1/original/4X/f/f/7/ff7f9d3b7db16a091ffa1d6555d186860f7e80d8.jpeg) ![DSCF8707_1](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/yoyoexpert1/original/4X/1/a/8/1a8b9a8648e1ef2a244da2a9ed5b1712889e6b13.jpeg) ![DSCF8715](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/yoyoexpert1/original/4X/2/9/f/29f82ac4bbe1c3a62a6e04fbad99f93c191926e6.jpeg) We hope you enjoy as much as we did putting this together! **Specs:** Dia: 56 mm Width: 46 mm Weight: 65.9 g Material: 6061 ALU --- _[View the full topic](https://forums.yoyoexpert.com/t/edition-news-miro-drops-aug-7th-9am-pst/362022)._
