What are you throwing today?

I beadblasted and half polished an alu dream today. Didn’t really have time to go for a mirror sheen, or a small wheel to get the cup, but it’s fun and unique so it’ll stay that way.

This is the one that confuses me the most… what (other than maaaybe the backwards and upside down lightning bolt) does that laser engraving have anything to do with this?:

Like, why the heartagram? This is a very confusing concept…

@edhaponik do you have any insight on this?

Drew digs loops! And cats! And yo-yos!
TCL may be an illuminati front but Loop Diggers is accessible to all. :wink:

It is also a reference to an old Madlib/Quasimoto song about spending all of your money looking through old albums to sample for loops.

“Modded Overthrow”

The Overthrow is probably the Draupnir of plastic yoyos imho opinion, but it’s durability is definitely subpar. I had an incident with dropping it a while ago and both rings fell out, so I glued them back in. I recently decided I should get new 9 Dragon caps to replace mine because I can so I took the rings back out again. For kicks, I strung it up and gave it a throw. At 25g, this is the floatiest yoyo I’ve ever played lol. This thing has virtually no rim-weight and going for a laceration actually affects the way the yoyo moves through air since it’s so light lol. I’ll fix it up eventually, but I’m going to keep it like this for now.

I used to like Mr. Google. He always had relevant information for whatever I’d ask him about, it was incredible that the man had so much knowledge.

Now any time I ask him something he meanders on endlessly about things that are only tangentially related to what I asked him about until I rephrase the question in very specific ways.
