The Hey Bud artwork, created during Augie Fash’s time at Duncan, emerged from raw Echo 2 yo-yos. Initially inspired by space themes and Duncan’s heritage, the concept evolved through a conversation with Paul Escolar to depict an astronaut and an alien as friends, resulting in the playful Hey Buds artwork. This limited edition artwork was featured on a few Echo 2 yo-yos and has now been re-released in full color on t-shirts and a limited run Freehand 1 yoyo, offering a chance to support a meaningful project and Duncan’s legacy.
