I’m not going to go out of my way to get a rhinestone yo-yo, but if I can get one for cheap.
I think it would look it’s best as part of a collection

We made a Bi-Metal Genesis and a bimetal VK. Catch 22 was obviously Bi-Metal too.

These are words to live by right here. At the end of the day, what random people think of you ain’t gonna change the way mustard taste. Be yourself and be confident, and nothing you do will be “dorky.”
I was at a Kohl’s yesterday with the wife, and I was throwing while she browsed the clearance rack. I got quite a few compliments from random people, and I’ve only been throwing a year so I’m just doing basic combos of things like branding and skin the gerbil or boing e boing, barrell rolls, and pop n fresh. Non yoyoers will be impressed by the fact the yoyo doesn’t come back when you tug it, anything beyond that is pure mindblowing to them.

Was any of that unresponsive play? I couldn’t tell if you were landing in binds or were tug responsive. Sick video, your style is really damn cool dude.

Damn dude, you bind more naturally than I breath! That vid totally makes me want to incorporate more stalls and regens into my unresponsive play.

Regens are the best - sometimes I go up to a full hour just doing regens, realizing later I haven’t done a single trick

You can license the rights to sell your own counterweight (i.e. the Ultraweight or Takeshi Dice).
Also, this doesn’t stop you from making your own, you just can’t sell them without purchasing licensing rights.

You posted a bearing yoyo video shortly after you played the Eh for the year. I immediately thought “that’s a game changer” (I may have posted that actually lol). I really think your whole year focus on a tug responsive yoyo made you maybe the most unique _bearing_ player alive.

If you don’t make the yoyos yourself, you’re a yoyo designer only.

This trick
Is this generation’s version of Yuuki Spencer’s Rejection to Upside-down GT that everyone used to do.
And it annoys me to no end without any apparent reason more than it is overused. I refuse to learn that trick. Not even the brent stole + reverse bs + rejection ninja vanish gives me that sense of apathy that the first trick gives me.

My unpopular opinion: Dimples are not good for finger spins.
IF you manage to lock it into place by landing directly on the dimple, sure, they spin way longer and with basically no effort. However in my experience a deep bowl shape is far more forgiving, and less likely to spin out of control on the initial catch.

Yes X a million.
Lots of designers, not many makers.

I’m pretty unsure about how i feel about this trick. It is indeed a nice trick. But there’s something about it that makes me dislike it.

The same way that all dogs are 99% wolf,
All modern bearing Yo-Yos are 99% SB-2.

DIY dryer blast finishes make no sense. There’s been a few cases that the results catch my eye, but for the most part, I don’t understand why anyone would want to do such a thing to their yoyo.
