As you can see, they are FLAT… and look pretty stinking cool…
They don’t sit flush against the throw - which gives it a great sense of depth…
They weigh in at 7g
so thats 2g heavier than the spikes
and about 2-3g lighter than the average brass (depending on if you have ultralights, spikes or Code1’s)
so if you’re looking for something inbetween the regular weights and the brass - grab these puppies!
makes my 54 feel like a new beast!
How deep are they in the cup? Could the string get caught in them? I can see that being both a problem and a doorway to new tricks though I would be hard to use them for tricks.
No, the string couldn’t get caught in them… they are pretty deep. they sit up about as high as the top of the domes do. The spikes stick out further then the flats do.
First of all, I have to say incredible photo! That specific 54 really looks amazing in high quality resolution.
About the new SE: Yes this is the new disc based and what Turtle just said is all true.
I’m not exactly sure of the reasonings for this specific SE, but I have a feeling in the future you will see specific releases with different forms of artwork on it and or maybe splashed colours?
They look pretty cool though. Like Zammy said, having a flat faced SE could come in handy for all sorts of designs, which, knowing OneDrop, will mean epicness. I don’t think I could get over them covering the inner cup’s design, though, cause I always love the little designs OneDrop puts there.
David mentioned that they may go on the Cascade, and maybe some of the Code2’s they have in shop - while I was there they had some Subterranean C2’s that he pointed out that they’d look good in.
I’m not an expert when it comes to inner weight, rim weight, etc… and I don’t know how much they truly change that dynamic, compared to spikes and such, but I love how my 54 feels with them. I have used ultra lights, spikes and brass in it - the discs will be staying put, it just feels right. I have a second set, so I will play around with my other side effect throws…
So just out of curiosity why are they called RSM’s (which from what ive heard stands for rotating side members) if they cant rotate (other than from the yoyo spinning). It’s early so its very possible I’m missing something here.
Thanks,
