It’s probably also worth mentioning in this thread that I “competed” (such as it is for me…) with my General-Yo Prestige this weekend. 🙂 I botched my super-slick fingerspin at the end of my freestyle, but I pulled it off in front of numerous people when not crushed under the pressure of the stage. :wink:

Bought one to show my appreciation for a manufacturer making a lighter weight throw. Hoping in the future we see a lot more yoyos in the 55g-63g range. Light yoyos are so much more fun and enjoyable to play than the bricks on strings that we see a lot of.

If anyone wants a Mint Cliff and Chief, you can have them both if you get an Amplitude to my doorstep!

You got it! I have room for a few heavier throws in my life, but it’s always a delight to throw light. And right from the first throw of the Amplitude, this one was no exception.

So I’ve just returned home from UK Nationals, and thought it worth letting you know that Armani flew the General-Yo flag with honour, taking second place!

It turned out he accidentally forgot his Amplitude (which he planned on competing with), but fortunately I had just bought a violet comp-grade, so I lent it to him for his performance and he busted out (in my opinion) the best freestyle of the entire day. Turns out he was only 0.45 of a point behind the winner… next year… 😃

Simon (one of the organisers) made it a point to give you (The General) a massive shoutout, and informed us that you were one of the most loyal and consistent sponsors of UK yoyoing. So I’d like to thank you personally for sponsoring the UK contests again this year, it was a huge amount of fun for all attending. 🙂

@Gambit  
Thank you so much for letting me know this!  
Made me so proud I teared up!  
And thank you for lending him his weapon of choice my friend.
