Did you design the bearing seat on the triton? What program did you use?

The bearing seat is pretty standard. It is based off one drops dimensions. We wanted a wider response so that was updated. It is done in auto cad by Drew White, a good friend of mine and team member.

I have only tried the trifecta, and the only difference I can find is retail price.

I would love to see a major competition won with one of our yoyos.

As far as recruiting them, it depends on the player. Character comes first when in looking at players for my team.

We also have a couple players that I feel are close and have the ability win major competitions. Jesse Christe is a player on the team you want to watch.

Would you consider making a d-bearing yoyo? What about titanium? I feel both of these are missing in the current scene and are badly needed, possibly together which afaik hasn’t been done.

Would you consider a budget aluminum type yoyo, based off the triton or albatross? Maybe have a simplified inner hub, with an organic shape. Maybe grooves…?

Highly doubtful on the d bearing.  
I really want to do a Ti yoyo sooner rather than later. But I still don’t have any official plans for one.
