@DocPop p213 tricks, these caps are also the 48mm Duncan Standard, they’ll fit Freehands, Atmos , RSO and other capped models using this standard.

So you could regenerate yo-yo style and continue to use it as a spin top?

In one section of the video I’m regenerating using spin top technique. Using it with the string attached like a yo-yo presents challenges to using it like a top - that’s why I’m using it offstring in the first section.
I feel I’m just scratching the surface of what can be done with this exciting new model - opportunities to meld spintop, offstring and 1A

This release has got me pretty excited. I’m still fairly new, but the potential here seems amazing.

That one must have had a gap more like offstring. Even if you made the bearing responsive on The Unicorn, a number of moves in Chris’s video just wouldn’t be possible.
Very cool source for inspiration i wish I had seen earlier! Took me a minute to translate the boomerang to this new form.

@MarkD Can Unicorn run a 1/2 Spec?
Not without grinding down the bearing post. It’s about 2.26mm long, it would need to be < 1.6mm to fit a half spec.

Right now, good old fashioned spin tops are kicking my butt well enough, thanks.

The unicorn looks beautiful and has a very fun design. This vid is wicked @bobafret you handle that throw well!
This is a style I’ve never heard of and it’s certainly awe inspiring 
Are there any examples of players doing the spin top style tricks on their hands/arms but on string? It reminded me of this yoyo and when I looked at the wiki it was there lol. The possibility of going around the NTH wrist to the back of your hand (or something like that) I feel would be sick and makes me want one of these.
