Are you a fan of the atlas or something?

It is a wide yoyo and plays well for my 5a style, therefore I like it, but that’s not all. I love a yoyo with a story, something where the underdog triumphs or the weird prototype is the champion. Something I can tell my friends about and something I can relate. So yes, I am a fan of the atlas. I also enjoy Bi-metals for their spin time and personalities, that’s why I think a bi-metal atlas would be one of the best competition 5a yoyos.

Yeah, I know. It’s a semi recent conversion, but I never look back. My bloody knuckles can speak for that.

On the red one I think you might have too much weight near the center.

I like the look of the design. But as others have said, I don’t understand how the width x diameter specs aren’t switched around. I compared the diameter to the width with a pair of equally sized black bars (below), and the width is definitely much less than the diameter.

Looks like around 46.5 wide and 55mm diameter based on this sketch.
The inner foil looks super sharp. You’re going to want to round that off.
The thickness on the cup looks kinda high, too. Not sure how much wiggle room depending on your axle length, though. Maybe take .2-.4mm off the thickness there, that mass belongs nearer the rims.
Keep on designing though, I can see where it’s headed!

Well, it’s not that the formatting _has_ to be a certain way. But in the original specs you posted, it lists “47mm” as the diameter, when that is actually the width. Subsequently, it lists 55.98mm as the width, when that is actually the diameter. That is what other forum users were trying to tell you.
