That would have been my next choice after the pink/purple. Jack picked the blue colorway and I didn’t feel like risking such a big order to include a 3rd color for that run. ---

No, the Converge is a large outer-ring bimetal that is a collaboration between Mk1 and OPYOYOS, see Jordan’s photo above. ---

It will be a top performing yoyo for sure, but it’s my least favourite design of yours. ---

No doubt. It serves a need that my team has - without any Diffractions left all I have is Umbras, and they’re prettttty wide for dense tricks unless you use a colossally long string like Jack does. Converge may delay the need a bit but it’s a very different design from this one, including a pretty big diameter and outer rings that can make chopsticks tricky. Speaking of which I should write up the design process for this one so I can use it later. ---

Here’s a cool tower Jack posted last week. [https://www.instagram.com/p/B-qHGs3hRMx/](https://www.instagram.com/p/B-qHGs3hRMx/) Word is I’ll have team edition Converges soon. The main batch has some other bits they need before they get tested though. How have you all been enjoying your Umbras?
