Spinworthy returns with a fresh take on the undersized organic—introducing [the Flying Lemon](https://shop.yoyoexpert.com/collections/new-releases/products/the-flying-lemon-yoyo-by-spinworthy?variant=45273192202430), a precision-crafted unresponsive yo-yo that brings something entirely new to the table. Designed by Spinworthy founder Glen, this model is a passion project born from years of searching for just the right feel in a 50mm diameter throw.

Undersized organic yo-yos have always held a special place in Glen’s heart, but none delivered the level of control and performance he was after. That changed with [the Flying Lemon](https://shop.yoyoexpert.com/collections/new-releases/products/the-flying-lemon-yoyo-by-spinworthy?variant=45273192202430). At the core of this design is an unexpected twist: the use of a 4mm wide MR85 bearing—a departure from the more common C or D sizes. This bearing choice unlocks a new level of performance, minimizing the usual compromises in small-diameter designs.

Why the MR85-W4? It delivers a smoother throw, stronger regens, and good low RPM play with amazing bind performance, all while allowing a lower weight distribution and more effective use of the inner wall—key advantages in a compact organic. It’s a bearing that Glen has successfully implemented before in collabs like the RBC and Harbinger with MK1, and it proves just as powerful here.

The result is a yo-yo that’s fast, stable, and delightfully powerful for its size. André described it as “literally the zest thing ever”

Whether you’re throwing laid-back combos or pushing precision regens, [the Flying Lemon](https://shop.yoyoexpert.com/collections/new-releases/products/the-flying-lemon-yoyo-by-spinworthy?variant=45273192202430) offers a unique feel you won’t find elsewhere.

I think the store description captures a lot of the benefits, and they apply relative to similarly sized yo-yos:

Of course, not all undersized yo-yos are organic. The Flying Lemon is roughly the same size as the Empathy Apathy, which is totally different in every other way. But I have found that every other undersized yo-yo feels a bit more loose and less refined in the throw and bind.

It also takes a bit of adjustment because the action is so different. What I notice most is that I have to adjust the release moment/angle a bit on breakaways.

I also feel like it delivers more spin for less effort than many other undersized yo-yos, especially those with C bearings. Part of that is also down to the substantial amount of rim material.

It’s been hard not to wonder how other undersized yo-yos would perform with this bearing. I imagine most would be improved, with some exceptions for really idiosyncratic yo-yos like the At Design Labs mono (edit: actually zero 🫩 ) (50mm), which I kind of like for its wonky anti-performance bent.

It’s legit unlike any undersized I’ve played with before, in a good way for certain. It’s a very refreshing feeling.

I just did the Nate test on it, where you trapeze, then fold it over on itself over and over again. Consistently got about x4-x5 folds until I started feeling it tug a bit, so 8-10 layers essentially (4-5 each side of the bearing). Not too shabby actually, haha. 🙂
