What did you get in the mail for 2020/2021?

Well, it isn’t even into the honeymoon phase, still like “wedding reception phase”. That said, in my opinion, @Glenacius_K made the vibe out to be worse than it is. I know vibe is a contentious topic, and, I tend to fall into the “I don’t notice it unless there is visible wobble and the string has some harmonic motion to it” camp. This is nothing like that. Not 10/10 smooth on my fingernail, but, my tricks don’t have the yoyo spinning against a fingernail.

That all said, this yoyo is an organic high walled player with a generous IGR. If I were like a million times cooler, I would feel like Markmont when I’m throwing it. However, I just since I’m not, I just feel like me. Will I win nationals with it? No, but, I’m not winning nationals regardless of my choice in yoyo. Am I smiling and enjoying playing this? Absolutely. Might I consider making it even more old school with a flat bearing? Almost definitely. :wink:

Glen said it was more of a cherry red than his pictures suggested. The color definitely exceeded my expectation

Suhc kind words, you flatter me :slight_smile:

Thank you Frankie for helping me suprise Curtis with the (partially) green yoyo.

We can all use a bit of joy and laughter these days.

I don’t think Curtis meant for me to share this video publically, so I’ll do the deed and seek forgiveness later, rather than ask him for his permission, but speaking of joy and laughter, any one want to see @twitch77’s genuine first reactions caught on camera?

Suhc awesome heart warming videos are meant to be shared

Enjoy, (Sorry Curtis XD, love you too :green_heart: )

It is powder coated by @yoyospirit

I snagged a raw one from the YYF sale and knew that I wanted to have it customized. I just asked Wes to make me something cool with no other direction and I swear he could not have made made me happier.

Just got this b grade yweti and it’s blowing my mind. I personally think this is a big step up from the mechabape but that’s just preference. Also the coating has such a nice feel to it even though it’s rubbing off. Great job @lytelvin

actually it seems to be a frequent problem, you are not the first to declare it.
But exactly, how does it happen?
What kind of cover does this titanium have?

Not sure about the coating but RSO specified that all of these b grades had coating issues so I knew about this before hand.
