And what a beauty she is!
After many attempts and several years of trying to hunt one of these guys down, I finally got hold of a Spyy Stryker! Just as good as I remembered when i bought one for my brother 10 years ago.
Just got both these bad boys today! Awesome throws ngl! CLYW man vs bear and CLYW orca

Today I got my ZGRT el Mijo in “Black”. The throw is awesome, literally been having so much fun with it unresponsive I havent even thrown in the bearing blank (I fully intended this to be a metal fixie most of the time).
Only complaint is the color. This is gun metal grey, not black. Beautiful none the less, but not black lol. Its a bummer because I bought this to go in a specific spot on my shelf where black yoyos live.
Wow. Beautiful work, Rob. I’m no connoisseur, but I haven’t seen too many wood yoyos with an internal axle assembly and cups that look like these do.
so happy you’re happy!
Also, I have to add that @DocPop is the one that designed the weight, but I did the CAD His idea, not mine!
The vow looks like fun throw ngl.
Glad you’re enjoying the Vow! Look out for our new bimetal coming soon, the Inception!
Ah, this was you who grabbed this BvsM I missed my chance on it literally by a day. Congrats, nice score.
Thanks man! I Love how the older clyw’s feel and play.
Big ZeroGravity mail day.
It was a honor and a pleasure to be involved in this project. Finally got el MiJo in and i had to pick up all 4 colors this way i have all 4 set ups.
Left to right… fixed axel, responsive, flat unresponsive, concave unresponsive
I also pre-ordered this one cause the price was right for Ti. Gonna be a min before i get to throw it but it looks like it’s gonna be fun.
Id say my black el MiJo is a dark blue black…i think of gun metal as greyer but gun metal is a sliding scale…i have a Momento in gun metal that’s more brown and a 66% shutter gun metal that’s a dark silver. El MiJo isn’t dark black.
I’d be really interested in your thoughts on the Rhino.
Mine is still in the mail and I’m in high anticipation mode right now.
I just got a chance to throw for awhile on my commute. Couldn’t resist to try the Rhino first.
It has a very solid presence on the string, it felt easy to stay in the right plane for my combos. Felt very powerful as well so much so more often then not i went for extra tricks on my combos and still had enough spin to bind. Not the snapiest binds but i did hit the sky bind and guy wright bind every time i tried them. During suicide tosses and hops it felt like it had just enough float, i even hit a hop to D.ON. twice (i usually miss that one! ) i don’t do sites combos by any means and the rhino didn’t seem to have any desire to speed up. Edges are rounded off so it’s a very comfortable catch.
Let me know if you agree with some of that when you get yours.
