When I wrote this review back on 2010 it had only been the 3 year anniversary of the Project. Hard to believe I wrote this almost 14 years ago. Crazy how time flies. This was one of my favorite reviews to write just because it allowed me to delve into the history of one of my favorite companies. Thank you for the trip down memory lane.

Huh, I had thought for sure they released it in 2012 but I guess not.

Also dang it’s good to see you here again saintrobyn! I always really enjoyed your reviews.

Why do they not look like straight polycarbonate or delrin. The black has got some pattern to it.

In the comments they said they “left them tumbled” idk what that means but I assume it’s the finish and maybe that’s why it looks that way. Also says they’ll come in white but I’m already sold on that color combo and name.

Haha. Did you get alerted that someone liked your post?

After reading it, I gave it a like and then realized, oh boy, this is a very old post! lol. Even weirder was that I was the first to like it. I’m guessing the system didn’t have that feature back then.

Anyway! Welcome back. That was a great write up! And I’m super happy to have picked one up recently!

Are you still in the game?

I got an alert when someone commented. I don’t think YYE had a like system back when I first posted this. I am still in the game and throw quite a bit, I just had a series of life issues that caused me to retire. I think about returning to writing reviews every now and then, but it would probably be a summer thing at this point. Teaching takes up so much time during the year, as well as becoming a recent grandparent.

I feel like it used to have thumbs up or something like that but then they didn’t carry over when the forum got redone.

Very cool! I can appreciate the balance between life and hobbies. I don’t know where some of these folks find the time! I can barely find the time to record a single video for some of the events happening here on YYE.

Thanks for popping in and clearing up the anniversary addition!!

Hopefully life turns you back in the direction of reviews and more involvement here! I enjoyed reading your stuff! While I’m relatively new to yoyo, I have tripped over plenty of your writings in my research.

Peace.
