Very cool looking. I don’t have a fixed axle yoyo … a little concerned about durability of wooden yoyosm s this is pretty interesting. Just wondering on the weight you stated. Isn’t 61g heavier than the typical fixie? ---

I’ve never hurt a wood yoyo any more than it’s hurt me. In all seriousness I think wood takes an impact more gracefully than a 6061 al throw does. Worse case you break your axle and that just a trip to the hardware store for a wood dowel of the right size and some wood glue to fix and be back in business the next day. 61g is on the heavier side for a fixie but I have fixed axle dense exotic wood yo-yos that are around that weight that play pretty well. Looks like a fun yoyo to me. ---

It doesn’t need to be wood to be fixed. The new Duncan Butterflies are a phenomenal player for their $5 price tag. ---

The axolotls were on yoyo factory’s website for Black Friday as a pre release. It’s one of my favorite yo-yos. It’s coming out sometime in 2024, as another one of Betty Gallegos’s yo-yos. ---
