Return Bottoms aka Sickburn Yo-Yo Workshop News and Updates

I kinda want to frame this message from the machine shop sales rep Will :joy:

Ps it turns out I’m gonna have a very limited number (3) of raw blasted titanium Demons Fun. So for the folks who prefer raw they will be coming in probably a few weeks.

Also as promised now that Demons Fun is released for sale I am open sourcing it. If some terrible fate befalls me you can simply provide the engineering documents and files to a competent machine shop and have some more made.

Thank you so much again Andy for the warm welcome and addition to the team.

Thank you everyone else too for the love. The Return Bottoms insta will go live in the next couple weeks. I have a Demon’s Fun on the way and want to make some videos with it to debut simultaneously with the account being made.

Absolutely stoked as well about the titanium Waffle Stomper proto. The original Waffle Stomper blew me away at its 0A capabilities. I don’t have anything that kickflips as well as it does, and it shoots the moon for days. So for as good as the original is, I can only imagine how cool it will be to see it translated to titanium.

Here is a small showcase of the original Waffle Stomper kickflipping

Alright first donations are in. To make it easier on me I’m tallying up purchases each month and donating monthly.

We’ve sold 4 packs of I Can’t Believe It’s Not Canada string and 9 Demons Fun.

That’s $225 for the Trevor Project and $20 for Empower Through Music! I had to round up for ETM because its donations page was in real Canadian dollars.

Here are receipts for accountability.

If not on insta and want it shared on there, feel free to send me a YouTube or TikTok or whatever platform link (or post in this thread) and notate you are cool with it being used.
