full p0rn soon :star_struck:

I just have a feeling they’re gonna to quick on the Luftverk site no matter how many were produced. This kinda release hits a much broader audience than most because you have every type and level of yoyoer most likely wanting one.

I’m going to assume the peak doesn’t have the iconic nub and this is their way to ease us in without the masses claiming they won’t buy one due to it not having it.

Prove me wrong but it seems odd so many people are bringing it up with no response and only pics of the rim :face_with_monocle:. It’s only a day away. Just tell us.

I believe Pang insinuated above it would have it, unless I read into what he said wrong.

I want it to be there for sure, I’ll buy one regardless just based on trusting them both to put out a good product

I’m gonna put my bingo list here if my predictions are true

• 58-59mm diameter
• has a small nipple post similar to peak 2 (guessing from its inner cup thickness from the blank halves of injection molded yoyo)
• plain colorways inspired from og runs (white obviously, blue, etc…)
• clyw pad size for response
• weight roughly 65-66 grams

Thanks for nothing. Just like with the END creep I thought I had to buy it instantly and then it sat in stores for months.

Work on making good yo-yos and less about marketing tactics

I thought our yoyos are pretty good, and the Creep is, in my opinion, one of the best we’ve ever made.

Luckily, there are tons of other brands out there making great yoyos as well, so you have plenty of options with ostensibly less annoying marketing. Enjoy.

The creep was great but didn’t have to be marketed as the last chance ever and all the hooplah around it being the last one ever.

Same with this peak.

Just show the specs and the yo-yo.

Don’t hide it or make something mysterious so people try their luck on something?

You make good yo-yos. You shouldn’t have to use this bs to selll them.

Agree with all except for weight, I think it will be 67-69 gram

how is it their fault for a yoyo not selling out right away? all they said was it was going to be the last run :skull:

Resident boomer head here. Haven’t been active and annoying lately. Thought this was a good place lol

the plastic 000 was weight around 65 grams (sourced from RW) but I’m guessing it will be 66 gram to the peak for the right amount of heft.

Ooh I hope so! I want one anyway, I love my peak 2 and my plastic 000 and fulvia. Here’s hoping theres a nice green color to match!

I’ll find some screenshots of the marketing behind the end creep for you after work. It was ridiculous

It has to have the Peak hub/nipple right? If it doesn’t, the only thing that makes it “Peak” would be the profile right? Peak hub/nipple is there guys, has to be.

It was the last Creep ever. Because it historically sold very slowly, and then only after each color sold out did we get everyone saying “OH I MISSED IT!” we figured it was probably important to make sure people didn’t wait around again. It wasn’t marketing hype it was us trying to clearly communicate a model being discontinued since usually we only tell people that once it’s too late.

We only get to reveal this yoyo once, and a lot went into it so we’re doing what we always do: enjoying ourselves. If we’re not being straightforward enough about this then allow me to speak incredibly plainly: I’m genuinely sorry this bothers you, and I would recommend you find another brand to support because the chances are very good that we’ll be this cagey about something else in the future and I don’t think you need this kind of aggravation in your life from a yoyo company. If you think we’re annoying now, we’re probably only gonna get worse. Sorry to disappoint. I highly recommend Atmos Projects if you want something that has a similar art-house vibe but with more plainly spelled-out marketing.

Thanks for the support over the years, sorry to be such a bother.
