C Sized bearing. Thought about making it D sized but it would most likely end up with more kick back than I’d want. ---

That spike is epic. Does that, combined with the 16mm axle give it a ton of center weight? Looks really nice. ---

Yea. Going for a really balanced feel, which imo makes for a very fun yoyo. Not looking to design anything that would win competitions, I couldn’t make anything better than the majority of what is available. But I can design something fun, meant to be carried around and abused, and give a hint of nostalgia. ---

The cup design was definitely inspired by SPYY, but I would say the overall design is a mish mash of different inspirations. ---

I think the pics just make it look more curved than it really is. It’s not quite to the extent of the GOPA. [Next page](https://forums.yoyoexpert.com/t/presenting-the-traveler/383687.md?page=2)
