Hey there!

I recently discovered the Duncan Magnetude, and I really want to try one!

I’m not even sure what to offer for it, but I know it was made 12 years ago so I don’t expect it to be cheap.

I have cash, or I can offer for trade value:

44emporium- Feather OG (raw)

44emporium- Titanium Feather (clear)

One Drop - Deep State (blue) (slightly modified to work with any type of bearing, spacers included)

Even if you don’t have one, but know anything about it, please share with me!

Thanks everyone! 😄

I think it’s designed by the battle bots Scorpio builder.

I might have one. I can’t remember if I traded it or not. I I did, I know where it went, at least :joy: I’ll report back 🫡

It was designed by Zach Lytle (better known these days for his battle bots builds) around 2009.

I helped work out the cad and manufacturing for it and they were done in a i think single short run at the time. It’s a fun yoyo, especially paired with magnetic 5a dice.

That’s my Magnetude! I was on a kick where I wanted as many different “hub stack” yo-yos as I could find. I think I still have it too, no packaging as I bought/traded for it used.

Throwing small boxes isn’t really my thing anyways 🙃

Which is your Magnetude? Care to trade it on by chance?

The Magnetude in the Museum link above is mine. I’m not sure I want to trade it, but I’ll think about it.

“run” isn’t how I’d put it - I still host the site, and if something breaks I try to fix it but that’s the limit of my involvement. I haven’t bought a new yo-yo in years, I think the last was a dragon slayer Deep State so that would’ve been around 2018 I think.

If you ever get to the point you no longer wish to own the site please let us all know. I’m sure someone in the community will gladly keep it going. I know @rkalajian Has taken over running and updating the yoyo archive @theyoyoarchive but the museum of yoyo history is so valuable I couldn’t imagine it disappearing and I know one of us would willing step up to pay for update and or host the site

The magnitude is so cool. Duncan still holds that patent so I doubt we will see anything like it for some time.

I think this is the coolest fact that I didn’t know

“In addition, the 2 different colors of Magnetude (red and black) are also opposing polarities so that during 3A play the yo-yos can be joined for amazing original tricks.”

In an absolutely random coincidence I found these prototype dice laying on my floor while moving stuff today

So cool to see!

Not to mention the fact that I’m talking to one of the designers.. this forum is amazing!

Where has yo-yoing been all of my life? I blame my mom for not getting me one when I was a kid LOL.

I’ve found my family 😁

If a Magnetude doesn’t turn up, I’m wondering if it would be possible to modify some side effects to play magnetically.

I had one of these back then and traded it for a Starwars Yomega Glide… the glue holding the magnets into the stacks kept chipping off and getting in the bearings and it overall was just not a great yoyo in my opinion.
