No, the blood style has issues since it’s a very tough ano technique. We don’t make that many. It’s a very limited release that we can’t supply to stores currently.

It’s just solid black and they have it on YYE. It just looks a little different because the picture you posted has a filter (I think) and some light reflecting off the yoyo.

I was wondering the same thing, but I appreciate you speaking up though.

Aftershock looks great! Any plans for an AL7?

For future colorways, I would recommend doing a Black acid wash with yellow and orange splash.

That is an awesome colorway Jake. I just want to know what does a guy have to do to grab one like that.  
I’ve been trying to land one of those awesome colorways since you’ve been in business, and have always been to late.  
What’s the secret ??

I received my green AL7 today and I’m amazed how nice that extra 2 grams of weight compliments the design and overall feel of the YoYo. It’s a clear winner, and I really have not noticed any real reduction in speed.  
The Aftershock is currently my overall favorite throw, I just wished I can find one in a colorway like the one above. Are you planning to make more than just a few of them ?

Either way, just keep up the great work. :wink:

Stickman -

Glad you are enjoying the sour apple 🙂

AL7 Aftershock is all I’ve been throwing lately.

The picture above is actually a Quake 🙂

So it’s finally time for me to procure my first G2 throw.

Quake  
AL7 Quake  
Aftershock  
AL7 aftershock

Man that’s a tough choice. I remember playing someones Quake at UK Nats and I loved it. Smaller than I thought it would be but really unique. That being said I normally tend to be a fan of larger, stable throws… but then I always like something a little different… and I adore the feel of 7075…

I’m going to be here a while. 😛

Wasn’t a huge fan of the quake but I for some reason really enjoy the AL7 Quake. If you’re into larger throws and stability I’d say go with an Aftershock. The Aftershock is really nice and plays top notch. The AL7 Aftershock I haven’t tried yet but I imagine it being more solid and if you’re into that type of fell I’d say go with that, plus those solid colors look amazing on the AL7 Aftershock.

Sounds like an AL7 Aftershock will be your favorite. But reading your post you’re going to be happy with them all. Have you narrowed it down?
