Hey, my name is Joe, and I haven’t been active here before, but wanted to introduce myself as I begin to make some yoyos.  
I am starting a little company, have some prototypes out for feedback, and intend to bring them into production soon.

The yoyo looks sweet, but I’m not sure about the name. I understand it’s meant to be tongue-in-cheek. I just hope everyone gets that.

I love the way it looks like rings around the spike! Is that just where the angle changes?

Yes it is the angles, instead of making it a smooth curve I left some angular changes for visual appeal.

I have the privalage of trying one of the protos! It plays really well! Im surprised at how well it maintains spin and the agility it has while still being somewhat layed back.

It is coming soon, still figuring out which colors to release and waiting a few more days as these guys test run the proto. Follow my Facebook and Instagram if you want a lot of updates.

Welcome to YYE, the throw and color looks totally awesome! I too understand the tongue in cheek nature of the name, but it might lead to some confusion in the future when your throws are out in the wild. When the community refers to b-grade yoyos, we’ll have to differentiate between actual factory seconds in general vs a company. It’s kinda like if someone named their company Organic YoYos or 7075 YoYos. It’s just not… optimal… tbh. May I suggest Bangin Throws/Return Tops/YoYos? Still has the “B”… and conveys how great your throws are. 🤷‍♂️ Looking forward to trying them!

If dead set in the name.

Production throws can be B+

B grades can be B-

For example: Let’s say you name this thing the Kitty Smasher.

Hey man, that’s a nice Kitty Smasher you got, how much?

Well, it’s a B-, so I’ll do $45 on it.

Or

This thang is a grade B+ Kitty Smasher, I won’t take a penny less than $75.

People trying to figure out that their B Grade B+ is an A Grade and their B Grade B- is a b grade

Imagine if this project is wildly successful and anyone will have the ability to use the brand name 🤷‍♂️

Look, to be serious, I love YYF, so don’t make this a hard breakup man. I have no question it will be some kind of success, and no question you’ll keep selling bgrade yoyos to the masses with little notice of me.
