cuz they could make something cooler 🙂

two companies at the literal epicenter of the yoyoing universe coming back together after a decade long hiatus!!

..to re-release the old stuff ☹

don’t get me wrong at all summit is definitely a top 5 yoyo of all time for me but you can still find them pretty easily on the BST and imo both companies have continued to learn and evolve from their experience in the space. I’d love to see that translate into a new offering.

but I also speak from the perspective of someone who owns a summit so your mileage may vary

That question, seriously has to be your attempt at some low-grade humor, correct?

I’ve heard that General Motors discontinued the Camaro.

Something tells me if they decide to release another Camaro in 13 years… It’s not gonna cost the same as the one they just discontinue.

So if you ask that question to make a joke, you made me laugh?

If you ask that question, not being sure how it would be taken, you made me laugh?

But if you ask that question because you were seriously wondering if a company would release or I should say re-release a yo-yo model 12 or 13 years later and it would still have the same retail price. If that’s actually what you meant, then you still made me laugh. But that last laugh, I’d be laughing and shaking my head and wondering who could possibly think of that, even if they were taking medication that affected your imagination.

considering the summit retailed for $115 for solids and even more for splashes i think this is a valid question..

onedrop’s recent 6061 side effect releases have been dropping at $70-75 and the new fancy ano’s at around $90-100

the doc is in and has ordered 50ccs of a reality check

Honestly was being genuine ! i mean $100 more approx would cover inflation between now and then but curious as to how a company like OD would price something that did come out that long ago if they were to re release lol
