Thank you!!
It was to save weight for the center and so that there weren’t loose parts! I think a big part of why people like how it plays is because theres so little center weight which usually causes the yoyo to be more thuddy and less floaty!
I also wanted the asthetic of a full solid state plastic yoyo instead of a multipiece yoyo. Its a big absurd to go to this length but I really miss the feeling of older Yoyojam yoyos and I think this yoyo does a decent job of bringing that fun back.
So in short if you machine all the parts it doesnt have the same “feel” but if i went the direction of a first base or skyva, it wouldn’t have the machined quality or smoothness. So this takes the best of both, the feel of a full plastic yoyo and the quality of a machined delrin.
