Hey every one, so as most yoyoers today I’m making my own yoyo, i’v posted pictures below, if you guys think you can help, know someone who can machine it/ can do the bearing seat, let me know! Opinions welcome!

I’m calling it the Sunchaser, I kept it simple and light, it should zip along the string.

:Note specs are without bearing.

Diameter 2.19 in/ 55.8 mm

Weight, around 62.5 grams

Width 1.52 in

lol, I did not really think about it when I designed it, but if you look closer you can see there is a big difference.

Reminds me of the Silly Goose. Not saying it is, but the concept of a wide profile and then a smaller similar profile put for the inner catch zone is something I always find striking.

Some might call it an h-shape, but it’s a bit more specific about it…

Ya know what I mean? 🙂

Loving all of the specs!

My friend owns a CNC machine. So if you can do the bearing seat and send me the file, I can try to make one 🙂

I like the way it looks. Kind of resembles an Avant Garde, but definitely has differences. I like it man. Looking good. 😃

Need to see a cross section too. When in 3D mode press the little shape at the top that says toggle transparency.
