As someone who hasn’t always been the biggest General Yo fan i gotta say the specs of the Amplitude are amazing. So happy to see more yoyos that aren’t in the 65-68g range. Glad to say i’ll be picking one up ASAP. Also if there’s any protos that are even lighter i’d love to buy one. 🙂

NathanC posted first 🙂  
But here it is anyway.

63.4 gr  
53.85 diameter  
42.27 wide  
4.3 gap.  
Very light weight with the rim to make it twist your wrist back when you bind!  
Evenly balanced for horizontal craziness, with comfort in the hand for a relaxed Sunday morning.

I agree with Nathan and Greg, in new yoyo purchases nowadays I like something a little bit different than the stock sizes and shapes we see so much. That weight is definately a selling point for me. ;D
