That’s a brownish red, yes. We labelled it Autumn Red back in the day.

That is probably the most oafish fixed axle yoyo I’ve ever seen. No way I’d get inspiration from something like this. Lol

Harsh. I more meant the axle system, but I am not equipped to know whether or not that part is oafish.

The hex nut on the outside of the body looks a bit makeshift to me. The whole design looks like it is meant to be an unresponsive and not at all a fixed axle yoyo.
Probably just a fun project they decided to do for kicks.

Hex nut embedded. That is much more practical (and even kinda classy in my opinion).

If a guy who is not a manufacturer makes a yoyo in his shed which has an unusual shape and a hex nut on the outside to secure the axle… That, however, is really cool. I love that kinda stuff!
I sometimes spend time watching videos of grand dads making yoyos. They have some interesting designs and methods, I love it!

Wasn’t just a fun project. Should ask Kyle about it, he was one of their main guys with it. They were getting ready to do a full production run, and it was a highly anticipated yoyo at the time.
Correct these were prototypes, I had heard from the guys back then that it was going to have a different setup, similar to a No Jive nut.
