that looks amazing. wish i had picked up a gzr cascade on the cheap the last opportunity i had. im not sure how id like it with more weight on it but cascade is my hands down favorite OD and my favorite organic that comes to mind. it blew my mind and was largely responsible for me experimenting with lots of other yoyos that i didnt think id enjoy since i thought id hate the cascade and only picked it up bc i got a good deal on a deep space one that i thought looked incredible ---

The Markmont. Classic gets an official release date. Available at YoYoExpert starting October 30th, 2014! Through the words of Mark Montgomery: “The Markmont. Classic is the brain baby of this oldschool(ish) player mixed with the genius of more then 4 generations of yo-yo advancement and the build expertise of David Metz and Shawn Nelson. The idea was to make a yo-yo that could sit next to the throws of past and still hold its own weight as a ‘classic’. To re-interpret the classic organic butterfly shape but meet the modern day throw play standards. Ultimately, this was a massive feat to accomplish that would eat up quite a bit more brain juice then anticipated, but in the end, the result is exactly as it was intended to be play wise and even aesthetic wise. A far departure from the original Markmont. and Markmont. Next throws, but still nodding to certain specific details like the flat outer faces of the rims and the stylized side effects to match the Markmont. Next to keep it in the family.” Specs: Base Weight: 60.65 grams Weight: 66.75 grams (with brass Markmont. Side Effects) Weight: 63.50 grams (with aluminum Markmont.

Pretty psyched about this one. The shape and specs are right in my sweet spot, and it’s got a nice, elegant look to it. Going for a “classic” aesthetic, it would be all too easy to end up with “generic” instead, but I think you guys really nailed the look. ---
