Machination! 7075 body plus Ti rim. Such an under appreciated yoyo. I don’t know what magic they used, but I have dinged the snot out of it, but it is still dead smooth on finger grinds. Such a good edc. Edit: if Tiss Humming bird counts, then I would argue Machination should count too. especially since the machination can spark, while TiSS can’t. ---

I feel like to be a titanium throw it needs to have a titanium body, as it is the main part of the yoyo. Having titanium rims is pretty gimmicky in my book, and should not allow a yoyo to be classified as a titanium. ---

Fair enough, and it also doesn’t have the titanum ring/ting sound. But i will defend to the end that there is nothing gimmicky about the Machination. On paper it makes no sense to me why they don’t just make the whole thing out of titanium (but then you probably lose that sweet mystery fade anno), but once you feel it in hand or on string, there is nothing gimmicky about it. ---

How is this thread not alive all the time? Got myself a mustang es. This thing is toooooo awesome! Why no love on the ti shutter? Id really love to try it against an aluminum one. Just scored a ti cadence. I never hear anyone talk about them. They must suck, eh? Not sure what I want to chase down next. Citizen seems all the rage.
