> [@crackout](#): > > I always liked the clean aesthetic of ODs. Seems more like a return to form. Iā€™d say that some of the most classic ODs were engraved: Kuntosh, Top Deck, etc. Not that anyone is _required_ to like them. Regardless of whether the design is something that I would choose, I appreciate that the eDITION and Crucible engravings have personal meaning to the people they were designed for. ---

Different strokes for different folks. I wasnā€™t a fan of the EDition deepest state at first, but the more I see it around, it grows on me. šŸ¤·ā€ā™‚ļø Being fortunate to know JT and how important it was for him to have his wife (Marie) do the artwork on it made me excited to see the art. She worked really hard on the rim engraving to make it look good, and make sure that it would look pleasing to the eye, fit on the rim, and not have it look like it could be off balance while on the rim was no doubt challenging and took a lot of creativity and practice to pull it off. It made me want a colorway that had the engravings pop, which initially had me gravitate away from the splashes. I was set on getting a blue, but being able to see an Aruna in person solidified me getting that colorway. ---

Itā€™s funny, I didnā€™t love the look of the engravings when I ordered it but also didnā€™t think too hard about it. But, once I received it, I have to admit that the bits of engraving that wrap off the front onto the side of the rim kind of bug because it almost looks like a ding when youā€™re looking at the profileā€¦but, itā€™s such a good yoyo I donā€™t _really_ care. Perfect shape, weight, feel imho. Glad I wasnā€™t aware of the Summit 2 when this came out because I would have probably only gotten one of them, and now Iā€™ll end up with both, hopefully. ---
