Hey guys,
I would like to finally announce that I have made my first yoyo! I have been trying to form a yoyo company and as of right now the name is Inertia in Motion. The yoyo I have made is in its finishing stages and its name is being called “Inverse”. But enough of me blabbing on… here are the specs ;D
Yoyo is made of 7075 T6 aluminum
Diameter: 2.195 inches/55.75 mm
Width: 1.765 inches/ 44.83 mm
Weight: 69.6 grams
This yoyo I designed was inspired by an unknown Japanese prototype. I really liked the profile shape of the Japanese prototype but had to completely redesign pretty much everything else (including diameter) because the proto felt too heavy, I didn’t like the way it played and there was a ton of unnecessary weight. After cutting off a ton of center weight and make it more suited for 1a play, this is the final result; a yoyo that had a similar profile shape with everything else changed and revised.
*Just a side note, I pretty much stink at using CAD and rely on my cousin who’s in a machining business but I still draw out the designs
**Another side note The prototypes are for sale at around $85-90 each. I would like to sell these so I can raise money for a real anodized production run. PM me for details and any questions ;D
I can’t really say how it plays that well since I’ve only been yoyoing for 7 months. I personally feels like it plays solid but feels lighter than 69 grams and it can play as fast/controlled as you want. As for the price there’s nothing set in stone but a rough guess would be around 80-100$. (I hope my adequate description of how it plays is good enough :P)
from what I can see in the pictures, this baby should be an awesome thumb grinder! the weight is a little heavy for my taste, but since it has deep rims it probably collects some air and seem a little lighter while playing… I can say I’m looking forward to trying one!
PS: As a physicist, I LOVE THE NAME of our company! ;D so if you’re looking to design a logo I might have what’s right 8)
Wow, why didn’t I see this thread until now? You really have something here. I’m serious, this thing looks stunning, and it looks like it plays even better. I absolutely am loving the specs on this thing and the shape looks incredible. It reminds me of a YYR crossed with the 3yo3 Ti yoyo mixed with a little Deadly Spins Pride. I would love to try this bad boy out and mess around with it for while, it looks so great! I cannot stress enough how good this yoyo looks, I love simplistic looking yoyos, not ones with all these steps and crazy weird designs. I love it, love it, love it!
You play your cards right, and you could be the next big small company! haha
I know people already offered to test it out but I’ll just throw my name up there as well. I’d definitely be interested in trying this thing out. I’ve been a member of the community for 4 years, I’ve tried hundreds of yoyos, and reviewed many as well. I could do a video with it, a full photoshoot, pretty much anything. I’d love to try it out! Like I said, I know a few people already asked, but if you want somebody else, just shoot me a PM or email me at spencerreynen@gmail.com .
Good luck with your prototype, we gotta see some sick anno on that thing, and you will have a winner on your hands.
