Hmm I haven’t weighed my stem nor cabal to see what that whole system comes to. I should do that. I assume OD and I know Arthur have that data for their products. It would add additional cost to whatever the end price is though so I get avoiding that route if possible ---

i did say it’s too heavy, but wdym by prototype to hype? i’m pretty much only 2 months in into this community, are they a very new thing that dropped to the market? if so then from advertisement stand point it does make sense, but please light me more on this ---

> [@yocolas](#): > > $700 is kinda too expensive, how much yoyo did he make? i think there’s a fine balance between price and quantity to make profit, hence the price question, because i doubt there would be more than 10 people who can afford a $1000 yoyo Resident s.kon fanboi. He made everything, and anodized them. There’s no part that is “salvaged” from something. I wouldn’t even consider this a mod, it’s just it’s own yoyo design, and he made it in his little workshop. This is the first Vektor-Swan (2009) ![20090630223428d9c](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/yoyoexpert1/original/4X/a/f/5/af5bd6c94855af9aebfe57a9f3d9062fc94e41c4.jpeg) ![200906302236209d0](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/yoyoexpert1/original/4X/c/1/1/c11d9b398ce7da21623fc49398a334be8220e0bd.jpeg) ![VEKTOR-SW1](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/yoyoexpert1/original/4X/e/6/4/e643888a652d85046308abc62a382eb2e48c9786.jpeg) the Original SWAN is from 2008 or earlier. A lot of them were given away for contests over the years. So how many exist of each model or version is probably unknown unless you asked s.kon directly. ![VEKTOR01](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/yoyoexpert1/original/4X/1/b/7/1b7a9b80bbdbaacf6139e592e89412d14059601d.jpeg) ![VEKTOR02 (1)](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/yoyoexpert1/original/4X/2/0/e/20e49ce201d83a25b0cfef4f82ac01d203d857eb.jpeg) ![VEKTOR04](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/yoyoexpert1/original/4X/8/b/0/8b020525313fe20d7cc144679ff068ba1c5412f0.jpeg) ![20090307182530](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/yoyoexpert1/original/4X/f/2/9/f29e2489dd2d31dcb84face967a0467cce7e6ae9.jpeg) ![20090314154939](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/yoyoexpert1/original/4X/2/3/b/23b877cfc944224693839581c512f393cda4c9ec.jpeg) ![200905302200210ae](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/yoyoexpert1/original/4X/3/c/1/3c1f8db0f60e894e3268b10ff71299b208592d9a.jpeg) After the SWAN, he made VEKTOR SWAN, and VEKTOR SWAN 2 that yoyojoe pictured. I think replacing the entire body of a DM2 or something like that with CF would be really neat. ---
