I recently got my El MiJo SL in and it’s awesome! I love that I can slip it in my pocket and carry it around campus without looking like a massive nerd. :joy: I want more throws like this. Hit me with some suggestions. Otherwise, I might just buy another El MiJo. (I want fixed axles or responsives) Thanks!

I’ve looked into this one before. Is it only sold on Mowl’s website? I don’t really want to pay $20 shipping for a $10 yoyo lol.

The Janus also gets an honorable mention simply because it fits in the pocket watch / coin pocket on a pair of jeans, and with spike SEs it doubles as a top.

As far as fixed axle slim, I have reached out to Ed Davidson and he has made me some awesome thin wood fixies from the specs I provided

Request an exotic wood, slightly concaved, as a common wood may be too light. Highly recommend nickel gap with brake hole response
