I kinda doubt it, but you never know. I emailed ZGRT a ways back trying to score an El Moji and they said they were considering another run, so you never can tell. Maybe RSO will do a run in polycarb or 7003 or something. :face_with_raised_eyebrow:

but thats not an SS rerun :sweat_smile: thats new plastic and cheapest AL7
serious question though 5 years i dont think they did a rerun

… i just answered my question actually they did rerun the first bowl as 5th anni version :roll_eyes:

Oh I see, I thought you meant have they ever done any kind of rerun. Incidentally, ZGRT told me they “…don’t really do re-releases…but are considering doing a run in a different material.” Maybe RSO are the same(ish).

Would love to tack onto this thread and further it a bit. I am curious of the ti versions of these throws as well. I have tried al koi, al bowl xl and mini. Just curious how ti koi, ti bowl, ss koi, and ss bowl all compare to one another. I know some ss are just so nice feeling people prefer it over ti. Wanted to see if anyone has tried all or most of those and can offer insight into how they compare . Thanks.

I own steel, ti (sakura edition) and 7068 al versions of Bowl. I can tell you that 303 and ti Sakura is two different yoyos. 303 is the floatiest of them, most center weighted and feels lighter than ti and 7068, while ti is the lightest of them, but feels powerful, stable, yet nimble, and also floaty, but not as much as 303. 7068 plays heavier than ti and steel, very close to ti version just feels not as premium as ti does. All of them are so smooth and overall great yoyos imo. Would rate them like that: 1 - ti, 2 - steel, 3 - 7068 al. Anyway love all three :slight_smile:

I can’t speak to the rest, but fully agree on the Ti Bowl at #1. I have the Sakura as well and it is my favorite throw, no question. It’s an incredible yoyo. Powerful, stable, crazy smooth.

The only Bowl I own to compare it to is the XL, which is just a totally different kind of thing. It’s definitely more of a novelty type thing, but it’s still one of the smoothest throws I own. I’ll say it again, I’d recommend a Bowl of any variety to anyone.
