Mk1 Yoyos!

Well said. Easily a top five performer in my collection. And all three colorways are outrageous. I’m going to buy another one Incase anything ever happens I need a backup. So limited I can’t take the chance of not having one in my life. At $70 best money I’ve ever spent on a new throw. World class

Someone need to give this a proper review. @Mazdarx7FD would be a good choice.

Don’t forget to check out the Boutique Yoyo Collective booth at the World Yo-Yo Contest next week! There will be a limited number of each color there.

I don’t think literally all of these companies will be there, but a lot of them will be! I think there are 9-10 signed up for the table.

Interesting fact so far: The pink/purple has been by far the most popular color, followed closely by green/green, then half-swaps, and finally blue/aqua. I personally feel like they all look great, but pink/green are rarer colors in the yo-yo world, so people seem drawn to get one of them instead.

Oh, and raw sold out instantly but I only had 2 to sell. Raws are making a come-back??? :sparkles:

Hey @andy569 I’d love to hear your thoughts on the Diffraction 2
I’m considering one, and we seem to have similar yoyo tastes lol

5 Likes

I’m biased because Mark is a good friend, but I’m really enjoying my Diffraction 2. Feels to me a lot like a wider Interlagos, which is great because I like that yoyo too.

It’s a great, safe, and cheap 7075 design. Well balanced is how I would put it. Good at everything.

Throws n brews would LOVE this because good looks, good feel, good speed, glass smooth, nice finish for grinds, good at fingerspins, good at thumb grinds cuz it has IGR :man_shrugging: Literally marks everything off his checklist :joy:

Can it handle anything you want to throw at it?

This is the new collab with OPYOYOS. Uh, it’s not pink… not everywhere. Gotta have that proto raw look, after all.

We spent like a month thinking of the name “Converge”, which is very clever, of course.

width: 46mm
diameter: 58mm
mass: ~63g

7068 and stainless steel rings.

Oh, you’re interested in my crochet project? I’m making a pen-holder-roll thing for a friend. It’s pretty sweet but also a soft bed for new yoyos.

That looks awesome! But come on, it’s not Kinda Pink Yoyos.

OMG this ticks sooo many of my boxes.
Please tell me the production model will offer blast finish and those sweet fades in the diffractions instead of just raw.

6 Likes

It’s just the prototype folks, which are typically raw, simmer down :joy:

It’ll be a blast finish & anodized for sure! I haven’t actually settled on a color for my part of the run, though. But yeah, only these protos will be raw.

Looks nice, I like the size/weight!
