I’m wondering how the titanium marquis is different and playing differently. I’m assuming the exact same profile as the aluminum one so due to the density different the overall weight should be different (how different?). Is that all? I’m asking because, as I understand titanium can be machined differently so you can have more extreme shapes and often push more weight to the outside rim. But if the Marquis shape stays the same, it seems we are not really capitalizing on this potential. Does that mean that the only difference in playing would be the different weight? Curious to hear everyone’s thoughts and experiences.
You’re right that it’s going to be the same shape and someone correct me if I’m wrong, but I think they said the titanium version is also going to have the same weight as the aluminum version. I think One Drop is the type of company to capitalize on the advantages of titanium and make it have improved performance.
I will definitely be curious to hear from the lucky owners once this yoyo get released!
Found this quote from the OP, so yeah same weight.
So who will be staying up late to snag a Marquis or two tonight???
Very interesting, thanks for clarifying: So the redesign of the inner flow groove gives it the same overall shape and the same weight. I would have been curious to see a difference just due to the better properties of titanium. How about a titanium benchmark series
Same “overall” shape. There are plenty of differences in the profile allowing for the different properties of titanium…

So rewind released theirs earlier and were sold out in like 2 min. I’m assuming YYE is going to get a much bigger stock, but I can’t imagine there will be any left after this weekend. Guess I’m staying up late to get one.
Remember halves are tuned, so if you go trading halfs you could end up with vibe.
Maybe in the past when machining wasn’t as precise, but with One Drop, you really don’t need to worry about vibe from swapping halves.
a little birdie told me that 8 more of these arrived at “someone’s” house a few days ago.
and… … . .
one of the rare ones was already discovered. . . … . :-X
Anyone else excited for the release in 3 hours?
I just stayed up all nit to buy one! Anyone else just get one? I am really hoping it is worth being exhausted in class!
Oh well… :-[
