> Thanks so much for being here @da5id! As you have mentioned in another thread - Side Effects were such an impressive discovery in modern yo-yo. I’m very curious about the development of them… How did it happen? Whose original idea? Was there an ‘Aha’ moment or more of a development over time? And are there earlier iterations of the design or did you knock it out of the park on the first try? I heart Side Effects.
