i will, but i’m not that great either. however, one of the testers i lined up is very good at 5a, and has a lot of experience (decades) in modding, playing and with a preference for mid- and higher wall throws. it was the folks like this… like us… and old school folks clawing their old collections out of the closets ‘cuz of covid and whatnot… that i was shooting to design the throw for. it sounds silly, it’s like a fubu (for us by us, to the layperson) yoyo lol… imo, i got the design and throw i was looking for, and i am very happy with it thusfar. i want feedback from the rest of the folks as well, since they may catch things i won’t - which would be critical. a lot of the folks i sent it to are/may be better than me, some have very similar tastes, some have WAAAY different tastes, some make yoyos… but, i knew they’d give me straight dope - because i don’t want to drop a turd (yoyo), and, i want y’all to get the straight dope… i just don’t want to release bst filler ---

yes, it’s the first yoyo we/i will potentially release. we have another project that’s working as well, but that’s a bit further out. ---

Proto came in! Rejects great, Regens great. Has a nice and balanced feel for the size. Like powerful but not a rock like some yoyos that size can be. Very very fun and pocketable too. Was nervous about this design because its a different size than anything else I’ve done, but I am super happy with how it came out. ![20210123_174605](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/yoyoexpert1/original/4X/1/a/c/1ac698dc90dd159c5fb8b97bd9e24ab1ee70cef5.jpeg) ![20210123_174535](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/yoyoexpert1/original/4X/4/b/c/4bce6d82bb4d3346b5e86efcecfaf2f423f57cf2.jpeg) ![20210123_174523](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/yoyoexpert1/original/4X/0/f/a/0fa343703dc22a11c4c1e293c76e98e016499ad6.jpeg) ---

Looks great, nice and clean with enough detail if you look for it. The specs are right up my alley too - I love organics that are a little undersized and the weight is bang on. I shall keep my eyes peeled for your release 👀 ---

Snacks, if anyone should be having a yo-yo come out it’s you.
