After watching some of the unboxing vids Chris made for the Marmot and Chief, i have one question: How on earth do you not just keep them all to yourself? I would have a terribly hard time with that many beautifully amazing contraptions leaving me. I know you have to turn a profit, but… i would just keep them all and become a poor hermit. ---

WOW Soooo much new stuff to mention, sorry it has been a while, but with the big work load and the new baby I have foundd it hard to post updates here. Well first thing first … HUGE congratulations to Zach Gormley on being the new 1A US National Champion!!  He did one of the most amazing freestyles of his life with approx 40% new content from Worlds.  So proud of him!!  Been an amazing journey for Zach.  AND this is only the beginning!! [![](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/yoyoexpert1/original/4X/6/b/1/6b1cf0b18af4399e0d1ed11595329dc2fbf28f75.jpeg "1A - 1st Place Zach Gormley - 2012 National Yo-Yo Contest - Presented By Duncan Toys") ](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Fvm08Vgc3ew) We’ve added two new team members to the team, Andrew Maider and Ewelina (Nuu) Wejner! Andrew Maider kicked off his new sponsorship with a HUGE accomplishment at US Nats with 4th place in 1A and 8th in 5A.  You’re a bright shining star Andrew!  We’re so lucky to have you! [![](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/yoyoexpert1/original/4X/a/5/b/a5bd506e9f46c1afb1166462a3225733be28414f.jpeg "1A - 4th Andrew Maider - 2012 National Yo-Yo Contest - Presented By Duncan Toys") ](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ph02FAAthw8) At US Nationals Zach ended up accepting the Industry Excellence award for us.  Being a Canadian company I was quite surprised by this, but I can’t complain.  It was truly an honour to be recognized by the US National YoYo Contsst for our hard work!!  So amazing!!  Oct 1st also marks my 1 year anniversary of doing CLYW full time.  WOW!  Really wish I could have been at US Nats to hang out with everyone!  Maybe next year! Upcoming Contests: Palli is escaping Iceland’s early winter for a trip to Spain right now, where he’ll be competing at Spanish Nats in the International category on Saturday. Later this month will be Czech Nationals where CLYW team members Petr, Zdenek, David and Nuu will be competing.  CLYW will be hosting a best trick contest there, where contestants will have 20 seconds to do their best trick and will be judged by crowd response. For new releases: We have a lot of throws coming this fall.  Soon to be stocked at YoYoExpert are: - H5xChiefs, the collaboration throw between C3 Design and CLYW (shipping early next week) - Gnarwhals (shipping early next week) - Arctic Circles, the signature throw of US National Champ Zach Gormley (shipping early next week) - Palli’s Puffin (aiming for an early November release … fingers crossed!) - Then for the holiday season we will be releasing Petr’s signature throw the Cliff, our largest diameter throw yet … plus more comeback Avalanches as well. I just wanted to thank you all for your continued support and for digging what we do day in and day out!  Couldn’t be doing it without you! Happy throwin! … hehe - Chris ---

All of these throws are so tempting, I have no idea which one to get next. I think I’m gonna go for either a Canvas, an Arctic Circle, a Puffin, or a Cliff. ---

> [@arcuda](#): > > When you say the cliff Is the biggest yoyo you’ve made, does that include H5xChief? That does not include the H5xChief. The cliff is 58-59 and the H5xChief is 62-63. When Chris said its the biggest throw he’s made he was referring to a throw he personally has designed not one that he was part of a collaboration to make. ---
