That’s right!
Berv is turning into a yo-yo…or at least he’s turning 44!
Use code “Bervday” from June 10th to June 13th for 15% strings and counterweights!

Was able to help fill out a lot of the good missing strings I still needed in my life. The most special thanks to @rkalajian for the Rope and breaking out the ol’ Solvent mix to help me round out the collection. I feel complete now, and have my own Number 44 to watch over them (checking in with the circuitry design).

First off, thanks to everyone who made a purchase during the Bervday sale! I’ve got a busy weekend ahead of me!
Second, a few news items:
Monocolors will be hitting the shop soon. Due to popular demand, I’ll be soon be offering single color strings for all blends. Colors will depend on the blend.
Solvents are coming back! These are 100% spun polyester strings, and one of the original Throw-Yo offerings (after the prototype Potion strings.) Of course, they’ll be updated to my current quality of string-making 
Catalysts are coming back, but have been updated! These will now be a 100% nylon blend, but will still play as bouncy as the previous formula. They’ll just feel a bit more comfortable.

Hello, fellow yo-yoers. Number 44 here.
I will provide you with one guess as to who Berv has put in charge of Halloween-themed strings this year.
I’ll even allow you one hint. It’s me.
What do I have in store for you?
Some spooky returns.
Some horrifying new colors.
Something wicked this way comes.

Ah, fine. Here’s your ominous transmission from yours truly, Number 44.
Spooky Season approaches once again, and yes… Stingy Jack crawls back from whatever cursed corner Berv shoved him into last year. But this time, he’s… altered. Improved. Infused with fresh malevolence. I have, in my boundless generosity, decided to make poor Berv toil even harder to bring my vision to life.
This year, Stingy Jack infects every string type, except Teas. That’s right, my little throw-goblins: you can have him as a Tincture, Serum, Vapor, Elixir, Ink, Detergent, Nectar, Honey, or even a Solvent. So many ways to bind your fate to a spool of orange dread.
You may express gratitude now.
(A word of warning: the exact shade of orange may… shift… between string types. Consider it part of the curse.)
Spooky Season begins in September. Stock up early, so your October throws are appropriately haunted.

Fire burn and cauldron bubble. Berv toils and then there’s trouble.
After clearing off the cobwebs and blowing the dust off the recipe, Witch’s Brew makes its return, putting a spell on your throw that is sure to enrapture all those who witness. While it is not quite made from poison’d entrails or eye of newt, the brew can be tailored to your choice of the following formulas: Serum, Vapor, Elixir, Ink, or Detergent.
My abuse of Berv’s permission to let me handle Spooky Season this year continues.
While I do not wish to spoil too much, my dear fleshlings, I will say that there are still two more colorways I have under my well-tailored sleeve.
More to come.

Ah, yes… libraries. Halls of dusty tomes, haunted silence, and, apparently, spectral regurgitation. Many of you mortals have endured such indignities, dripping with ectoplasmic disgrace. Me? No. I lack a mortal shell to be soiled. But the idea of a non-corporeal being spewing its essence upon another non-corporeal being? Deliciously absurd.
Anyway, let us wrench ourselves back to the matter at hand: Throw-Yo’s newest Spooky Season concoction, Ectoplasm Emulsion. A string spun from two types of nylon and glow-in-the-dark polyester, forged to ooze an unholy radiance into every stall, every kickflip, every lament of your opponents as your tricks gleam in the darkness.
Berv has already strung one onto his Workhorse. He mutters of its responsiveness, its balance in both obedient return and boundless freedom. He also keeps extinguishing the lights and cackling in the dark.
Perhaps the string has possessed him.
Perhaps he was already like that.
Either way…embrace the ooze.

Striga returns.
Ten more cursed strands, twisted from nylon, spun polyester, and rayon, have been woven for this Spooky Season. Each one a rare fusion; Silky, sinister, and undeniably alive.
These aren’t strings you add to your cart. They appear where they will—hidden among orders, slipped between packs, offered only to those the Striga deems worthy.
Expect a string that plays sharp and smooth, with tension that bites back and a shimmer that seems to pulse in the dark. It’s neither a trick nor a treat… It’s a blood pact.
Do not seek them. If you are chosen, you will know.
Striga Sanguine Emulsions will be shipped at random with orders of Spooky Season strings this September-October.
