More CLYW variety?

It might just be me, but I would love to own a derlin chief

I would like to see full scale production because if its a limited run, it would defeat the purpose of a low budget throw.

I don’t know about derlin, but I’d certainly buy a delrin Chief.

no way, dude, it’s not only you. That would be pretty darn cool.

Cause then they would turn into YYF.

Silliest comment yet.

I’ve never played delrin but I have an octave 3 coming soon

The octave 3 is the best delrin in the world.

No. CLYW is a high end boutique yoyo company. If they were to make a plastic, it would have to be a very limited run, not a full scale production run. Cause then they would turn into YYF.

Not quite… They’d have to make about 100 different yoyos, each with 5+ color ways released over time to even come close. CLYW doesn’t obsess over having the most yoyos on an online store. They understand that quality beats quantity. (even if it makes less money)

[Jagmcool]

I just feel like with the care that goes into the design of a CLYW, they could make a plastic that would completely change the plastic yoyo market.

With the double rim thing they love so very very much, it’d be a nifty little place for weight rings.

YYF still delivers quality.

I think the design of the Chief would be hard to do on delrin. Most delrin yoyos are “solid” designs, ie there’s not many weak/thin areas. Think of the Severe and the Halo. Thats beefy designs, right? And then think of a Cliff. Get it?

I don’t buy into hipster boutique mentality. As long as the CLYW engine is being driven by Chris, there will be concern for quality.

You can have quality and yet still be a large-scale commercial success. Are we actually saying we don’t want CLYW to be a huge worldwide success? We’re so concerned about our own warm fuzzy feeling from supporting a “little guy” that we don’t want to see them be as large (or hey, even larger!) than YYF? Why are we supporting a small company if not to help them grow?

I for one wish them all the success in the world. I hope they sell thousands upon thousands of yoyos to people of all ages all over the world and that Chris get stinky rich and hires a hundred people who are just as passionate about yoyoing.

I’m pretty sure CLYW has a plastic in the works.

[StillinKansasCity]

Some plastics play really well, some don’t. It would be such an interesting novelty that the price point would be quite high to counter the high demand (like their metals) and I just wouldn’t want to overpay for a plastic just because it might be one of the ones that play well. Thus, I would prefer the predictable quality of a metal over an expensive novelty. Delrin is machined, not mold injected so that would be a slightly different animal in my eyes. That said, I’ve played Delrin yoyos that blew me away and others that had a terrible wobble and pretty lackluster performance after tuning.
