Stuck on what throw this may be? It currently has a bead blasted powder coat on it just so you know.

Hmm. Maybe a Storm Panzer throw? I think they had that exposed axle on some yoyos.

I gotta tell ya I don’t think this guy is as “high end” as the Sturm items are.

I simply can’t find this thing on any of my old stuff for some reason.

looks like someone refinished a Genesis?

The gap is different from a genesis for sure.

Did the hub come with the visible axle? Or was that a mod/done after receiving

I believe this is a stock feature.

In fact I know it is.

The factory anodizing is a light blue on one half and a yellow on the other. I rarely blasted or polished the response/bearing area when I worked on them.

Yoyojoker Double Joker

The older versions had the open axle hole, closed in the newer ones.

Impressive! :smiley:
Curious as to how you knew? Do you own one?

I had a feeling it was a Yoyojoker based on the shape and design, a quick google search showed it was the Double Joker haha.

You do great work…

And we have pretty much all known that for years.

But that being said; the finish texture on that yo-yo looks like an industrial diamond finish on a tunnel boring drill bit.

Is that finish murder in strings?

Or is that texture just an optical illusion?

So…good yo yo to learn to grind with?
Or no?

:stuck_out_tongue:

The particular powder coat that is on this yoyo is very good to grind with. While it does not look like an typical bead blast it is very smooth. I did several yoyos with this powder coat and they were very pleased.

It’s a very deceitful finish. You would think it feels like stone, but it’s much more like an egg shell. It’s a very slick finish, doesn’t cut string at all.

Actually I didn’t answer my own question.

My question was just a question without your answer.

What I asked wasn’t a riddle. It was simply a question.

Your response that my question was my answer ‘was’ the answer to my question.

Now… if you question my answer to your response, than I would question your answer to my response.

This dialogue may have an air of redundancy to it.

But that remains questionable?

I know the answer to your response. It’s unresponsive!
