It’s back! YYF replaced one of the two Wide Angles I was having issues with, and also sent me like 10 pads and a bearing for my inconvenience. This one is incredibly smooth. ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/yoyoexpert1/original/4X/7/b/6/7b61111074edc2bf59f2618ecd9cabcef0c6c546.jpeg) Now I’m waiting to see what YYE says about the yo-yo I sent them which was worse than the one that YYF replaced. I also have a Retic Death Adder v2 coming soon. ---

Gross. No focus on what actually works together well, just random combos. ---

I like Dimension 51 (I think that’s the top-right in your case), and they are well executed, but I agree with @Durfee that the rest are disjointed color combos. I’d love to see the skill of application applied to more cohesive pallets. Went with black because the one splash I like from them is ALWAYS sold out first. ---

Color theory is used by artists when creating new pieces. They don’t just pick random colors they like. Complimentary colors, warm colors, cool colors, analogous colors etc… are all factors to consider when creating something with color. It’s not as simple as I think these colors would look cool, I’m going to use them. ---

Personally I’m just in the ‘less is more’ camp. Like 2 colors and a neutral like black grey or clear is almost too much imo. Also the term ‘hella-90’s’ always pops into my head when I see MFD ano jobs. Like they should all be named after Rocket Power characters.

Basically the number of steps involved. There’s a lot that goes into them. I get where you’re coming from though, most of my yo-yos are solid, and I don’t usually care for busy colors, but I worked with anodizers at a previous employer (totally unrelated to yo-yos) and I can appreciate the work that goes into what they do ---

Yeah not trying to be a jerk, I am legitimately asking because multicolor splashes have been a thing for a long time now. Is it specifically the interwoven line work that makes it more complex?
