As mentioned, it is a lot similar to the original project. It does have the projection profile, hex nut assembly and flat rims.

Addment: I can’t explain it, but it looks heavier.

IRG=Inner Ring Grind

What we call thumb grinding is in fact an IRG. The original thumb grind was just grinding the yoyo on top of your thumb. Now IRGs are called thumb grinds.

Addment: Correct me if I am wrong.

No, IT is an Inner RING gring or Inner rim grind

> **[Inner Ring Grind](https://yoyo.fandom.com/wiki/Inner_Ring_Grind)**
>
> Also known as Inner Rim Grind , Thumb Grind or IRG. The Inner Ring Grind is a grind trick in which something (typically the thumb) is placed inside the ring of one half of a yo-yo while spinning, thus grinding on the object. These are not possible...
