Did it rain into some of the cups or something? What’s the grey stuff?

So if I’m reading this correctly, only 3 of the four colorways will be released (on OD’s website) and the fourth (Thrash Polka) will drop at a later unannounced date on yoyoexpert?

Quoting Ed from the OD Website…

  1. Ensō engraving. Specifically, this ensō is relevant to another connection David and I share - the martial art of aikido. This particular ensō is attributed to the art’s founder, Morihei Ueshiba, and has been on the cover of his “Art Of Peace”. At the risk of sounding “woo-woo”, yo-yoing - especially responsive and fixed axle - is very much a spiritual discipline for me. You can’t simultaneously track a multi-loop Kickflip AND think about what you’ve go going on later that evening. It demands your attention, and really learning how to give yourself to the MOMENT is the real trick and fundamental goal. This is just as true in drawing an ensō, as well as in music and aikido. Don’t get hung up on whether what you’re doing is “good” or “not good” - just do it fully. Just be present.

The deepest state yo-yo’s went fast today. I hope everyone was able to get some of these colorways! I’m curious how many of each of the three were made.

I’m very excited to get them in the mail!!! Wahoo!

A response to a comment in this IG post mentions a “a small groove on either side of the sight line”.

you sure, their pages show same width and diameter and base weight. just a small weight difference b/c the edITION uses spikes instead of energy domes.

I cannot find the post that I thought I saw so comment deleted

Edit: looks like there may have been a typo on initial announcement, the pages say they are the same width now. Someone claimed there was a 1mm difference and linked the one drop page

That was me. I’m pretty sure edITION was listed as 32.2mm before. Probably just a typo.

it honestly makes sense that would b the case tho, a lot of talk was about how it plays like a fixie

Yes it does.

It was a typo and thank you for catching it!
