Hey everybody, This is now the official thread for a new yoyo company that will hopefully become a household name in the yoyo society, RaYoyos. The goal for our company is to provide what people like, and make it top quality. And not ridiculously expensive. The first yoyo being produced is expected to officially release for public sale in mid August. The design has been prototyped and finalized. Artwork is being made into stamp-form, and the boxes have arrived. Foam is being cut, and everything else is well underway. The last thing we are waiting for are the several anodized prototypes that are currently being worked on. After that, production will be started. The first run will be a very limited numerically engraved batch of yoyos. They will involve special packaging, and special string made by somebody to be announced. The colors WILL be amazing. So… The RaYoyos Chupacabra Our first design is fast. It is fullsized and light. It features a width that gives is a very solid stance and makes landing tricks a breeze. Weight isnt pushed too hard in any single spot on the yoyo. It is a true champ. Machined by Onedrop Yoyos. Weight: 65.7 grams Width: 44.1mm Diameter: 56.56 C-sized 10ball bearing. Flow groove response. ![](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/yoyoexpert1/original/4X/e/3/8/e382a2923d935f7e145ba76038c7da83f358a82a.png) ![](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/yoyoexpert1/original/4X/7/b/7/7b717140543a48fecb19ef09e37484ca077c4ae2.jpeg) ![](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/yoyoexpert1/original/4X/3/b/7/3b759543aac5d8842f5c106e2269efe0483d5251.jpeg) Soda Blasted version.

hmm, i know that i like earthy tones, like greens and browns, despite the lack of green and brown yoyos in my collection, i also like darker blues. a copper speckle with one of those would look nice i think, particularly on the green or the blue. ---

The throw looks great! I suggest some purples and pinks. Bright colors that pop will attract alot of people ---

I agree about earth tones. They look good on a yoyo. ---

Raw, blasted silver, or blasted gold are what I’m digging at the moment, and this yoyo looks sweet anyway. And this thing hits my preferences perfectly, I’ll do my best to pick one up. ---

Chupacabras are supposed to eat goats. So how about a brown and beige acid wash with blood red streaks or splash. Should look interesting static and very unique while spinning. ---

Dang, I like the specs. I agree about the earthy tones. But bright colors would really pop on this throw. Reminds me of a YYR. ---

I love it when the splash on a yoyo is similar to the base color, and it blends in a really cool way, like two different shades of blue, or like silver with grey splash… my two cents. ---
