I only got to play them for a couple minutes so it is hard to go into fine detail. The purple felt more refined and stable on the string. The orange had a brutish feel when thrown… it had more rim weight. Both are great but I think I grooved on the second run more. The OD team members seemed to be split on this with one liking the orange more and the other liking the purple more.

sounds awesome. I wonder what the price is if they are released. One Drop always has great prices so this is honestly exciting.

The Format:C Challenge: design a 7075 yoyo for competition play from the ground up. The “C” stands for “Competition” or “Contest”.
The testing process was intense with two rounds of prototyping going to every single member of our team for extensive play. The Format:C probably has the deepest “beta testing” of any yoyo we have made.
We had an unexpected extra challenge on the manufacturing side. We had to change and refine some processes to be able too make these consistently balanced. Shawn (The Machinist) was up for the challenge and was able to solve the problems. There was a point where we thought we may not be able to release this.
We are now in production and more details will be released soon …
