Do you have any plans to revisit the older designs, aka more runs of the Tross or Nessie, or the respective AL7 versions of both? Or are you just looking to the future at this point.

I have some raw tross and Nessies sitting in storage. I’m sure ill get some ano put on them at some point.

Do some raw releases.

Nope. Don’t want to deal with the galling issues raw yoyos are bad news for bearings

They shouldn’t be, so long as your seats are loose enough.

Loose seats cause vibe

Will you be breaking into the plastic market anytime soon?

I think he already said no to this. Due to the fact that molds costs a lot of money and its probably harder for smaller companies.

Molds are expensive & I don’t have the time, help or desire to assemble 500 yoyos a run. That’s closer to the amount I want to do every year.

Oh I know your a small company so I was thinking Delrin. Would you ever do a Delrin or another machinable plastic?

Delrin is possible in a smaller run

I do love Delrin. A delrin Triton would go well with the one I have

It will be a whole new yoyo when and if it’s done.

Sounds even better. I’ll be waiting, if, when

Fantastic, thanks!

Also, I’m imploring you, do a release of clear anodized/blasted. I LOVE the way raw yoyos look, but yeah they’re problematic and get damaged easily. Nobody does raw-like anodizing and I don’t know why!

I can’t decide between gold or clear for the solid color quakes.

Depends on the shade of gold…

Something I can’t control I prefer the brighter gold

[CaliBuddha]

I think a spicy mustard quake might look sweet! ;D

Or, heck, we can go all out and call it a banana pudding milk quake!

If your using Gruntbull that’s the most beautiful gold I’ve ever seen. Just check out CLYWs instagram for the blasted Gold BvM2s and look up the gold unblasted Ava’s Chris did they are amazing. So yes gold please.

It will be GB but they have different shades every run.

What’s your favorite colorway at this time? Also what do you prefer out of stuff like fades, acid wash, splashes, and speckle?

I like a good splash

Are there any teaser pics / specs for the Quake? I’ve heard it mentioned on FB but I can’t find any info about it!

Nope

It was available to be tried at Ohio states and will be available to be tested at worlds.

Pics won’t be released until the production is ready

[felipe]

Do you feel your yoyo designs are improving with time or are they just different flavors that taste just as good?
If you had to suggest one of your yoyos to a consumer (including the upcoming quake and without knowing their preference), what would it be? What about a yoyo of another brand (a yoyo that you think everyone should have)?

I liked it a lot.

I was the guy who after trying the yoyo, told Jake that I would buy it if it went into production.

I wouldn’t say they are improving. All different and all would be enjoyed today as new releases.

I would suggest the triton to anyone as one if the top yoyos on the market. I think most people will like it regardless of preference.

A non G2 yoyo that needs to be owned is a FHZ
