Fewer snags, and if you want, you can get 5x11x4 bearings. Yea, I want this yoyo to be me though. And I love A-Sized bearing yoyos. I want this to be 60% me, 40% competition style. I do mostly use C and D sized bearings in my other designs. (in total of about 7 for HC) ---

There aren’t really many legal things to worry about. Why would you spend thousands of dollars putting a patent on a design which will simply cause every other company in the yoyo industry hate you? ---
