Drinking wine? Smoking cigars?! All this money and power is corrupting One Drop. And they used to seem like such nice lads!

General Lodge - Lochness MonStar. It is not :frowning:

Hopefully he gets back soon, otherwise I shudder to think how the stats might be revealed.

And then some days, we have to trudge around in the mud when we recycle aluminum chips. And by “we” I mean Shawn. Trust me, it’s not glamorous making yoyos :slight_smile:

THIS IS THE DOWNBEAT.
So that means that this Bi-metal is NOT the Downbeat.
So that means…

92

Any new bi-metal evidence guys? We know it exists, we just need more pictures

93

well, how about asking OneDrop about their bi-metal yoyo? Because that’s what I did. In my interview with Paul Dang. It’s from the end of January. Check out how he reacts when asked about this very discussion we have right here in the YYE forum :slight_smile:

94

CONFIRMED

95

I missed that you had done an interview with Paul! I’mma watch this as soon as TV with my better half is over. :wink:

96

I bugged Paul about it at cal states… he said he knew nothing of a bimetal :wink:

97

No, you didn’t miss anything, the video just got released. I just wanted to say that it was shot end of January, hence we didn’t talk about the DownBeat because it wasn’t announced back then.

98

I watched it. Great stuff!

Great interview with P. Dang. Thanks for doing it :slight_smile:

I was finally able to watch it. Paul’s comment about wanting to do bi-metal “right” caught my attention. Reading between the lines leads me to believe that OneDrop has indeed tried a bi-metal prototype (or two) and found it was not as simple as just putting a metal ring inside a stock yo-yo.

Whatever the reason, he was very specific about a bi-metal not coming from OneDrop anytime soon. :frowning:

I think it’s safe to say that One Drop is probably working on a lot of things, and probably 99% of them we have no idea about. But when they are released they’ll be perfected like all of their other releases have been, and it’ll be worth the wait :slight_smile:
