Vs. Newton YoYo Concepts: Andrew Maider wins MA States!

theyll be done machining by Feb. 4th, but still need lasering and some polishing love

raw Ti color

im saving 5 BEYOND RARE ones for special stuff past that

Aww, for me??? You shouldnā€™t have xD

And, any word on laser art?

He said heā€™s keeping them raw, which mean their RAW.

You are kind of ignorant or blind.

See?

no point in arguing

theyll all be numbered without a doubt

Wellā€¦ it took me long enough, but I ended up snagging a red/clear acid wash Battosai ;D. Was really hoping for a white knight, but those sell out so fast. I finally get to see for myself how good they are :wink:

awesome. the red/clear is one of my favorite solid washes

May I ask how many of these were made?

30

Still a chance to get one :slight_smile:

guys and gals

i cant reserve you yoyos on YYE. please stop emailing me to reserve a Ti Walker for the YYE drop. i have no power over what YYE does with their yoyos

Are they going to be around $185? I guess thatā€™s not too bad considering they are titanium. A bit out of my price rang.

Ti Walkers will be 200$. Ti is hard to machine as well as being a crazy expensive material

Yes, thatā€™s quite understandable. Is Ti stronger? Is it lighter? More scratch resistant? What was the allure of using Ti?

GREAT question!

many wonder this, but never ask. here are the reasons that i use and after making the Ti Walker think that titanium is SUPER viable in yoyo making (provided that you can pay the price)

Titanium is around 6 to 8 times stronger than Al. this means weight where you want it design wise. walls can go crazy thin without losing durability. it weighs a good bit more, but again, with such a string metal being used, too thin is nearly impossible. it also boasts more durability because of that strength, meaning raw bearing seats dont wear down, threads are more durable, and flat spots are hard to come by.

beyond that, titanium sparks when you walk it in concrete :slight_smile:

here you guys go. comparing the two is pretty tough. Ti Walker is slightly more solid and just as smooth as anything youve ever thrown (trust me). i really think this is the best ive done yet

here are some pics of it next to the OG Sky Walker

also, in case you guys had plans to do so, Ti Walkers are limited to one per person. if you attempt to buy more than one, you simply will not get one at all (sorry to be a ball buster, but the run is limited. )

she weighs a gram less than the Al Sky Walker, but distribution is WAY more in her favor

just one run. just 81 yoyos. something i personally wouldnt miss out on :slight_smile:

Oh, yeah. ONLY 81 xD

Anyway, Me like. I especially like the more rounded profile :slight_smile:

thanks

Yeah, I love the rounder edges. Makes it look classier (if itā€™s even possible to be classier than a sky walker :wink: )
