I got an orange boo for $120. Unless there’s BA editions, I’d guess $120 is the highest they’ll go.

All I can say is “wow”. :o The Prestige is my new favorite. Plays very fast and smooth, definitely more performance orientated than the last two releases. When I saw the extreme V-shape, I was sold. Definitely my favorite shape preference. If I were to compare it to another yoyo, I would say it reminds me of a slightly larger, wider Phenom. Trust me, you want some of this!

The Orange Boo with pyramatte is so so so smooth. It’s wonderful. The Prestige is great. Such a smooth, flowy throw.

I thought I’d miss the traditional blast but it doesn’t matter. This thing is elegant and gorgeous. Meeting Ernie was great, yesterday made some dreams come true, that’s for sure.

Just stopping by to say hello. And Ernie your new throw looks awesome. I have not thrown in 6 months or so, but now I am feeling the itch to get this new one and throw again.

Also I apologize to anyone that messaged me in the past few months. I was totally inactive.

General Yo has made tons of yoyos that don’t have the traditional blast on it. I posted some pictures below. Also there are blasted Prestiges available.
