Well, I guess weāve heard about it now, lolš
The Fluke is the signature yo-yo of our very own Wes Shuck. It is his ideal design for laid back everyday use, while still retaining a spirit of creativity and flow. The design is entirely the vision of Wes, with the original prototype even being hand produced with Wesās assistance back in 2018 in his home state of Michigan. The Fluke comes in 2 versions, a blasted and a brushed finish. The blasted version features a split beadblast along our signature āsight linesā in the gap to minimize string wear and provide a nice visual contrast both inside and outside of the sight line. See full specs below.
56.7mm diameter
44.3mm width
66.0g weight
6061 AL
C bearing
The special edition of the Fluke is inspired by a very unique individual named Johnny Scrabble

Yea thing looks awesome! I couldnāt wait to see for myself so I had to post here to read any praises. I had no idea this was such a new release. Hopefully mine delivers sooner than later haaha. Thanks for the posts guys, keep em coming!
I have a yo that is organic-esque in shape but it isnāt really spherical or fancy materials like the high end Bowl, Grail, or 000. Iāve never played with one of them fancy ones either so I have no basis for comparison. The most organic like shape yoyo I have is the Dopamine. I hope to get a plastic 000 soon.

Arthur and wes are both amazing just buy it and love it. Honestly probably the tamest FD YoYo in awhile and thatās not an insult just last few models have been very unique so this one feels more back to roots sort of which was kind of the theme for FD going into the end of the year.
Super fun YoYo often in my rotation. Iām very happy he rounded it more after feedback. I personally didnāt jive with the protos of this one I played at club but the end production version was a must buy.
If I had to compare it and this is unfair cause only a handful of folks have played it but itās like. YYBC operator but lighter more open and a bit faster in play.
Iām super aware that comparison is pointless for almost everyone here but when I pulled out the proto operator and Arthur plopped out the prod fluke we both said did you copy me. It was funny. Just similar ideas of going more old school with a modern twist.

I enjoyed your post and youāre right I have no idea what youāre comparing it to, but Iām interpreting it to say the Fluke is really great. I donāt have anything to compare this to, but all the replies are saying that I chose wisely haaha. I ordered one up last week, a brushed, and its supposed to deliver on Tuesday. Iām so excited!
Update: itās delivering today but I wonāt be here! Iāll be at DXL!!
Nate Wade has been shredding the Fluke on IG if you need some POV

This is the G2 YYBC Operator Prototype that @Captrogers was speaking of and comparing to.
Oh daaaang, that dude is amazing! Iām nowhere near that level of play, just glad that no one is reporting that its a brick! Hopefully it delivers early so I can break it in at DXL!

Woah thats a real cool shape! Neat how the rims recurve instead of flare out or stop at the apex.
The next question: Do I need to get anything else to fulfill the organic shape category or am I set?

I mean, if youāre talking about getting a Fluke then that definitely fits the bill. But some people just canāt stop at 1ā¦ or even 100.

What are the specs on the G2/ Boomer Operator? @Slestak75 @Captrogers
Diameter on Organics makes a big difference in play IMO

I agree, think FD missed the opportunity on that one. @arthurfoley @Saltman360
Maybe next run?
