Will let you know when I try.

I designed this yo-yo with the future intent of t being VERY good for tech and long spinning. For the very first prototype, I just combined my favorite attributes of yo-yos to see what happens. So it will change of course. Also what is CX? Haven’t heard that

CX = air penetration coefficient

Thinking about playability, consider this:


You have masses that run at the same RPM, the same angular speed, but with different meters per second.
This created imbalances if there is no predominant mass.
Anyway, please let me know about this yoyo, I’m curious.

I imagine the problems, because I have had similar ones with this yoyo:

Can do! Hey if anything and it’s just unplayable, it sure is pretty :+1:

Dude, I have no answers, just questions.
For example, here’s a question for you: Why did you put those rings inside?
For aesthetics or did you want to get something on playability?

They are on the Chief, which was an inspiration.

I made it triple rim for a couple of reasons:

  1. I wanted to try something that I have never seen
  2. I did in fact do it for asthectics because I thought it would look sick
  3. My “experiment” with this design is to have to two outer rims give a lot of rim weight with the inner rims giving so mid weight for some float

I get that, but it looks like the lovechild of a Banshee, a Valor, and a Pickaxe.

Gotta give it to @Marm for making his dream a reality.

That is awesome; what color / colors are you planning on @Marm?

Some day I want to make the Marmalade colorway I used in the design your own colorway thread.

Hey since you live about 20 minutes away, maybe we can meet up sometime and I can give some pointers. And you can try the Moose @Applepooh

Would be dope.

Not sure how playable this thing is, but I’d be lying if I said I didn’t absolutely love the look of that double chief ring. Way to try something new! :ok_hand:
