Gotta love those eye candy videos. I like yoyo manufacturing videos more than yoyo playing videos.

Its true! It’s awesome seeing these things being made. The Summit video was absolutely fascinating, it was the first time I had actually seen the process from start to finish. Keep up the good work guys!

Do you know what color (or combinations) will be available? I’m unbelievably impressed with my green and can’t wait to get more.

Small question:
Why does the color of the catch contain small marks and why is it different (not as vibrant) than the cup? Is it because the insides of the plastic doesn’t dye as well as the outer layer? And with the machining of the catch zone it shows that?

Is is from the machining… The machining is giving the feel of a blasted or “matte” finish while the inside is glossy. I think its the shine that you are seeing…

Yes, this is on purpose. We call it “marbleized”. Plastic that grinds well!

The “marbleized” plastic effect looks great. My green rally has slight hints of light blue throughout the catch zone, gives it an interesting effect.
