I hope you will forgive me, but anytime I hear of a 1:1 yoyo, my brain autopilots to this:

(Pardon the low quality)

This is from a bit ago, but at the National Yoyo Contest this year I was given the Industry Excellence award.

Clip from the stream: [https://youtube.com/clip/Ugkx077a8LI60FW42UosO9rDpZXTomHB1Fk-?si=45N2f0JMUqggZT8J](https://youtube.com/clip/Ugkx077a8LI60FW42UosO9rDpZXTomHB1Fk-?si=45N2f0JMUqggZT8J)

Thank you @Nathan for giving me a heads up!  
& shoutout to the league for this incredible recognition. Wish I could have been there in person this year.

I suppose I can also use this post to talk about plans for Mk1 this year!

Two of our players are at worlds right now (@44.sdls and a secret new person). Sean has a new offstring sig that we’re busy trying to obliterate by dropping everywhere. This will result in a better, more durable yoyo. Go try it at worlds before you’re too late!!

@Jckpth has a new sig in the works - another nifty monometal, this time lighter and rounder. It’s going to be quite pleasant.

 ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/yoyoexpert1/original/4X/e/9/f/e9f58683426815dc8bf72b90ef89f8e66a1ee7cb.jpeg)

_I was trying to impress this cat with Jack’s new sig and this happened._

There’s a new batch of Ring-Bearer “The One Ring” coming someday… hopefully soon!

There’s a new batch of Plasm in 5 new colorways on order.

I just placed an order for 9 new prototypes, which I will hint at in this huge list:

- A 2nd version of a player sig, another monometal that I’m excited about
- A player sig, a tri-material that finally looks great after lots of work in CAD
- Another player sig, a wide monometal
- A goofy yoyo that I spent 2 years just staring at in FreeCAD
- A responsive yoyo that I’m hoping will hit the \<$40 price point
- A fourth player sig bimetal that was designed like 3 years ago but now it’s finally time to make
- A fifth player sig that takes side effects
- A bimetal collab with a newer yoyo company
- An obvious idea that nobody has made yet
