In Evans most recent post he has revealed that he will no longer compete after wyyc 2019. The new edge I’m hyped for is called the Edge Ultimate (I was really hoping for infinite or infinity ). But yeah: Evan From Heaven on Instagram: "I’m currently practicing for the World Yo-yo Contest 2019! I’d like to announce that after this contest, I’ll be retiring from competitive yoyoing to pursue a career in music. With that said, I decided that for my final routine, I must go all out, so I composed my own music for my freestyle titled “The Last Stand”. My goal with this freestyle is to go out with a bang. It’s gonna be super fun, and I hope you all enjoy it! #wyyc2019 #seeyouincleveland #trickcircle #yyfedge #edgeULTIMATE"
How much more ultimate can the edge get than the Beyond?
Sort of related as YYF used this announcement to hype up the Edgeless: How is the Edgeless different from a standard organic shape? Seems pretty straight forward to me.
It’s meant to be the antithesis of Evan’s sigs, as it’s not hard angled shape nor wide. (Paraphrasing @yyfben2.deactivated)

Sure but the way they describe it in the recent IG post makes it sound like it took more effort than just “here’s an organic yo-yo.” But all I see is an organic yo-yo.
I dont blame him. He’s already accomplished everything you can do in yoyoing. He’ll still probably throw and stuff, just not competitively.
Yeah I don’t think anyone blames him. A lot of people drop off after winning 1A worlds. It’s the greatest and most difficult accomplishment in yoyo and maintaining that level over the coarse of multiple years is not realistic and at that point there’s really nothing else worth proving
Bruh I don’t even know what this is
I am very happy for him. Pumped to see his performance and excited to hear more music he puts out. I really enjoy Waves, even though it’s not exactly my preferred music genre.
He makes every trick look easy and effortless to pull off perfectly.
Now if Evan manages to win this year, that’ll be a story.
Announcing retirement and winning his last contest at the biggest stage. I always thought it was legendary that Sampras’ final match was a US Open victory.
I guess we need to demonstrate the difference better. if it were in your hand it would be clear but apparently the photos have not demonstrated the differences.
Photos where?

Looks like an organic with a slight Edge-style flare out. I’d buy it.
The SS in the edgeless engraving looks emphasized. Is that for a reason? Is it a bi-metal?
And do I understand correctly that there are two new Nagao signature yoyos in the works?
Probably bimetal styling. I’m not falling for that again.
Yeah. I think there are two. One is the Edgeless, and I think it is monometal(no visible rims at all). The other one appeared at a yoyofactory stream but I think it has not been oficially announced
Did you really fall for it the first time.
When I first saw pics, yea
