I was always hoping to see a titanium Top Deck before a bimetal. _Le sigh_

For me it’s that I’m used to a lot of new stuff having wider rims than a couple years ago. When I got the Yoyorec Upheaval Ext I thought it looked odd.

Looks good to me. The shape isn’t similar to many existing One Drops, but it seems to be intended as a high performance bi-metal and I would say that it does have function-driven qualities in-line with that goal.

I’m not surprised (or disappointed) that it is tapped axle.

Love the grooves.

I don’t believe so. The Citizen doesn’t look much like a Top Deck and came 9 months before it.

Agree, I like it. And I’ve always liked the view when designing for performance that if it doesn’t increase the performance then it’s not happening.

A yoyo is interesting in this way in that the whole thing spins so every change affects performance.

Curious question @da5id

Does performing a thermo fit give an advantage to being capable of having a much tighter fit, leading to a more durable yoyo, or just decrease the chances of having the parts warp during a press fit?

I’d imagine even if it’s the latter it could make a difference in how thin certain areas of the body could be designed.

I love it. I don’t do horizontal or DNA so I can’t speak to that, but for everything else it checks the boxes for me. And it fits in the pocket real nice

Just IMO, but the M2 is a must have OD.

Curious to know your reservation about the shape(?)
