OK this has a much different feel than when I did this to my original Deep State. Very snappy, but don’t expect long spins out of it.
This was made from a plastic standoff spacer from home depot.

I need to film some stuff this week. I’ve actually gotten my Kickflips semi-consistent. Maybe 1-in-3.

Hey, what’s this up here? 
Week 3: SPONSOR LOVE (aka The Prize Episode)
Alright friends, this is what you’ve been waiting for…it’s time to talk about the loot!
None of this fun with the YoYo Boomers Club would be possible without our absolutely stellar sponsors. These legends are the reason you can land just one trick and still have a shot at walking away with something awesome.
Let’s show them some love.
Layer Infinity @wayne927
The ever-ingenious, long-time friend of the YYBC, and FAF supporter.
Layer Infinity is bringing the heat this year with the Klassm, part Kasm, part Classic, all fun. This wild creation features a machined plastic / 3D print hybrid body. It’s modern science wrapped in nostalgic joy.
If you like your fixies clean, and just a little futuristic… this one’s calling your name.
Boise Wood Works @Rich
Rich’s designs have been popping up everywhere recently as you may have seen, and for good reason. Wood is good. And so are these throws.
Up for grabs: A Buffalo & Badger
Two absolute beauties from Boise Wood Works that bring handcrafted excellence to your fixed axle arsenal. Smooth as butter, but please don’t cook with them!
Sickburn Yo-Yo Workshop / Return Bottoms @AudreySickburn
Our very own YYBC Mad Scientist, AudreySickburn.
If you’ve ever wondered what would happen if magic and engineering had a baby, it’s probably something from Sickburn Yo-Yo Workshop. Wild, unique designs that still play like top-tier precision machines.
This year we’ve got:
A Sick(burn) set of bearing blanks: So you can roll like a champ without even needing a bearing.
And an Every Day Caramel (EDC): Currently under redesign, but you’ll be among the FIRST to snag one once it’s ready. Early adopter status unlocked!
Throw-Yo @rkalajian & @Number44
Strings? Merch? Lifestyle enhancement? Throw-Yo has you covered. Literally.
And this year… he’s bringing something special, whether he meant to or not!
1 of only 3 ever made
The legendary, elusive YYBC Eco-Friendly Reusable Juicebox
Yes. It’s real. Yes. It’s iconic. Yes. It will absolutely elevate your “hydration” game and confuse strangers.
This is what community looks like.
Innovation. Craftsmanship. Mad science.
Huge thank you to all of our sponsors for making FAF 2026 possible. Be sure to check them out, support them, and show some love.
Now get back to climbing that trick ladder, because even one trick gets you a chance at this goodness!

After a long long absence and returning recently thing have really changed. That to ask a silly question. What is that and where can I get one?

That’s actually something that one of our fabulous sponsors makes.
Boise Woodworks, he has an etsy page if you google it. Should be pretty easy to find!
Not technically supposed to put other sales links on here. Craft works is kind of a grey area, but just to be on the safe-side.

Thanks! That’s very cool!
Checked out the models. I can see some coming my way.

The Oak Alpha is up for pre-order on the etsy page now.
These are cherry, walnut, and white oak from Boise Woodworks. My phone camera is terrible, and the picture does not do them justice. They are absolutely beautiful.

How does the oak Natural feel weight wise?
1 Like
It’s heavy! It’s not the Alpha, so it doesn’t have holes. I don’t know how much the holes would reduce the weight. I haven’t had a chance to play with it yet, but here are the weights:
Cherry Alpha - 39.5 grams
Walnut Alpha - 46.1 grams
Oak Natural - 63.5 grams!

Only 3 exist… and somehow I feel personally judged by each one.

Not a ton of action in the thread this year, doesn’t mean we aren’t throwing and obviously life gets in the way, but if you got time, how’s the journey been so far? Anyone doing fixed axle February for the first time?
I started last year, it’s been a game changer
@TryCatchThrow King of the Hill thread has been the highlight for me. Would be dope to consider incorporating something similar in the main thread next year if possible

The Boomer Club does it again. Those prizes look fantastic.
As for the Layer Infinity - Klassm… It’s absolutely fantastic I can say since I got mine I haven’t put it down, I enjoy it in both fixed or bearing mode. Wayne is so talented.
