Question, what do you use to prop yoyos on the rim during photo shoots?

(Don’t pull my leg, I know it’s not magic 😆)

I use a whiskey stone since it’s in my backdrop props bucket.

I’ve used a toothpick and sticky tac in the past

You can tell I don’t drink because I had to look that up :joy:

Not to derail the thread, but do you use a whiskey stone instead of ice so the liquor isn’t diluted at all?

That’s the exact idea. I don’t drink anymore but I always drank my scotch neat or with a drop or two (literally) of water in it (helps bring out the undertones), but a buddy of mine swears by whiskey stones.

That’s the point of them. Never used them. I bought them in a set with some glasses just for photo props.

I was never a big fan of the stones because I like it colder and they just provided a light chill, plus, all that clanking. I found a sweet spot with those large ice sphere molds though. Because it’s basically just one giant ball of concentrated ice, you still get a really good chill, but some of that slight dilution as well without it becoming overly watery like with regular cubes, and it melts so slowly that I can even finish, rinse it off, and pop it back in the freezer for at least one or two more glasses before I need to worry about making another one. Absolutely love it.

You can only enter the giveaway on IG or FB sorry!

This is what the post says -

Ladies and gentlemen. Boys and girls. Gather around, it is time to introduce the Cruiser with a little giveaway.

Should we start with the specs? Yeah, ok.  
Diameter 57.15mm  
Width 45.6mm  
65.35 grams  
G20 pads, V2 Ripper bearing, and 10mm axle.

The story behind the design is pretty simple. Take everything I loved about the Life, remove the things I didn’t like, and transfer it into titanium. You will notice it’s a bit softer on the catch, a bit less rim weight for some more float, and a more forgiving gap.

We keep the giveaways simple around here. Like this post, and comment the color you like better. That’s it. You’re then entered to win one.

Make sure you turn the sound on for video.

Winner drawn Friday at noon eastern. One entry per person.

Happy Throwing.
