No, things like that require planning. I still have 2 yoyo designs ordered with Throw Spiral Jamie and I don’t want to have 3 things up in the air :wink: ---

Im going to make a run of these. That looks like a really comfortable throw. ---

That would require learning to juggle - but then that’d be a 4th thing at the same time! ---

Surely you’d need to pay him for his design if you’d like to make it. And he’d have to agree to that, too. I’d like to be super clear that all of the designers in this contest are keeping all of the rights to their own yoyo designs, I only needed to be able to share the images for contest purposes. ---

Obviously. How about this. If you let me make this, I’ll send you one for free. Edit: what were you thinking about the materials? Edit-edit: I would make some tweaks. Edit-edit-edit: if you just want me to pay you for the right to make it, how much were you thinking? Or are you just plain out? Cuz I’ve been looking for a competitive/fun yoyo like this for a long time… Edit-edit-edit-edit: just think about it please. ---

> [@Onefanatic](#): > > Edit-edit-edit-edit: just think about it please. Okay you’ve got me thinking about it :wink: I was considering to make a run from this in any case. Are you just keen to have one or planning to start making throws? (or are you already and are you just considering adding a new throw to your line-up) ---

Just keen to have one. Maybe two. I would however make some changes based on my personal opinion to make it more competition based. The shape is stellar though. I am going to start making yoyos at some point too tho. Edit: I f you made a run of those, they would get snatched up in no time. ---

What sort of changes would you make? I may work them in if I agree with them 🙂 ---

I enjoy fingerspins so I would add a slope leading to a flat instead of the rad cup you had.(not that there is a problem with it, just not my style). I would put a interior steel ring. And I would make the first curve a little wider. ---

Hell, it might actually cut you even IF you can land your tricks. The concept is great and I can only imagine how much fun it would be to hang our with other yoyoers and play something like this. ---

Tiny update, currently exploring the options for a production run. Have decided to indeed try and put it on the market. However it might well be a while before it will see the light of day. It will need further work and tuning. For all the awesome people who support this hitting the market (that’s you guys) ; don’t hold your breath, don’t expect it in the next few months and let’s hope it won’t be years. In the mean time do keep faith, do keep checking in for updates and do spread the word :wink: [Previous page](https://forums.yoyoexpert.com/t/mk1-design-contest/327481.md?page=4)
