That really just my estimate. I could be off by a bit.
That is, if the yoyos aren’t incinerated upon entering the USA.

Is there a concern about the wood traveling internationally? What wood are they made from?

No you didn’t. That Skeletor is dope.

They’re beech and white oak. They have always let my small packages of wooden yoyos through, but a larger package I’ve never sent before. Wooden items are apparently prohibited.

I got these last year. I havnt bought any other fixed axles mainly because the weight and feel of my Harbinger is about perfect for my preferences.

Daaaaang!
Is that one one on the right got your initial branded? Sweeeeeeeet!
(I really hope the other is disassembled on purpose)
Glen was really nice a put a Z on one side for me. The other side has the Spinworthy logo.
The Scorcher was a freebie, I played it alot, and hard. I’m dumb and broke the axle.

That means you got your mileage out of it. Sad it’s broken, but proud of its journey.

Cool! Let me know how you like the play.

You’re certainly not dumb. The Scorchers were heavy and only had a 1/4" walnut axle. That’s fine in a lighter throw, but I learned since that heavier woods can’t handle this.

Looks like the yoyos made it through US customs. They should arrive at YYE soon.

Woooooo!
so i got to throw these around a little bit last night - and plan to today as well - but i was i was very impressed with my first spinworthy(s). you can really get a hell of a throw out of these! my little guy was watching me… he’s 8 and throws with me as well… and i was doing some pull start type stuff with the notches (albeit not as gracefully as glen), and dude lit up like a christmas tree… so, i’m down to 2 of the 3 spinworthys now… and little guy is up to one
anyway, the notches are really cool, i’ll play around with them more. i’m one who deosn’t like sharp edges, so these are perfect for me. the gap seemed to taper off sooner or was narrower on the prototypes than the the fixed axles i’m normally playing, (no jives, an eh, and i have a bearing blank on a daytona right now), so i had to be ‘tighter’ going through tricks too. i’ll swap out the strings maybe too
i appreciate glen’s work. they’re nicely finished, and he has a real good eye for detail. i’m looking forward to these popping up on the site. nice job man, thank you.
i’ll be keeping one of these in my pocket for a bit

That Knack looks dreamy. What’s the retail going to be?
