What would you like to see come from Onedrop (hypothetical)

That is also a good idea but after this mystery box honestly I stop to buy stuff from USA for long time, it will happen again only if I find something I really want, the shipping waiting time is generally long from shops, the only problem is that nowhere in europe someone have a stock like in YYE.

I would just like to increase a bit my number of one drop, I do really love them, I honestly hope in a Free solo/Thorn/Lunar Eclipse/Burnside, I do really like those models at least from specs/pictures!

I get that. I’m in Japan, and it’s usually 2+ weeks. I’ve gotten used to it, but it’s not like being Stateside.

That said, I’d highly recommend the Free Solo, Thorn and Panorama if they appeal to you. I really enjoy the Pano and Thorn a lot more than I expected. The Thorn in particular is one that I’ve found myself reaching for more and more. All 3 are currently available, too.

The Top Deck just seems highly praised, so I’m really interested in it. I’m also interested in the Aitch, Kumaraiju and maybe the Fat Tire (all available, again), but I’m not sure we’ll see another Top Deck run, so really want to score one if I can.

Anyway, like you, I’ve recently discovered One Drop and love their quality. Happy hunting!

I have the Aitch and Fat Tire.

The Fat Tire is crazy stable and seems to have a lot of rotation time (I used them with a centre track bearing), is veeery fat on the rims so in some combos (if you play technical intricated stuff and even less if you like horizontal tricks) the rims can be a bit ā€œin the middleā€ , it’s a very fun yoyos and I like to throw it daily, probably not the best if you want to play competitive but I found it very fun in slack and other ā€œairā€ stuff, it feels good in the hand a bit of weight but not like a rock, for chill casual playing if you want to relax I think is a great choice, also I did not had any other yoyo with a similar shape and I enjoy it a lot!

The Aitch I simply love it one of my fav of all time, it’s quite small (I love small yoyos as my hands are in the small side), amazing for chopstick, great stability and rotation time, you have to get used to it for slack and air tricks but it took me just couple of minutes, you have to be just a bit more precise than usual but after you get used to it comes much natural, I do lot of intricate combos and weird stuff with it and is great, also for horizontals I found it quite comfortable, it play like a little beast, I think it’s done for a more frenetic play in contrast of the fat tire cause also the shape of the Aitch, I would say that if I was into competition I would use it to compete, is a very reliable product, the only negative side of it is the gap being on the smaller size you have to be double careful on tricks that go against the yoyo rotation or you risk to bind it.

Other than this, I would say that from those One Drop yoyos I can feel quality, just looking at them and handling them I can feel the quality of production and care of material, they look all really cool, I remember lot of years ago (really lot of years maybe 9 or more) I won a Project 2 at the Italian Nats, I still have that yoyo in Italy, I used it for years without stop and loved it!

What I would like to see is just something that’s even amazing according to their standard guidelines for excellence

I’m not telepathic, but if I could send these guys a message and they could think about it in their dreams, this is what I would say>

I want a mono metal yo-yo. I want one that’s not too big in diameter. I want it to be wide, but not super wide. I want it to have some heft, but I don’t want it to be overweight. I want them to set it up so that when you combine the weight with the diameter And the width and the gap size, that the weight distribution will be second to none.
…. I want them to make a yo-yo that feels great in the hand… and roll down the string like a dream. Spins like it doesn’t know how to stop.

…. I want them to make this yo-yo so good but so simple when you first lay eyes on it that you would never think even if you had some kind of an imagination that would play any kind of awesome like it actually does.

….. I want it to completely defy. People’s initial opinions of it before they throw it around for a couple minutes. I want them to prove that you don’t have to make a bi-metal, a tri-metal, a quad metal, an exotic metal, a sponge cake or Twinkie filled yoyo.

…. I just want them to lock themselves in the shop for a while and when they open the doors, they’re holding the beast.

I even have a name for it. I didn’t have to think long. It came to me like a vision. It’s not any kind of action pack name like tornado or hurricane or monster killer or stampede or anything of that nature. It’s just a simple name.

And you don’t think of the name that much one way or the other until you throw the yo-yo and then the name will be stuck in your head for the rest of your life.

I would name it the DS-61.

If Shawn and David get my telepathic message tonight… When they wake up in the morning and look at each other and laugh… Shawn will probably say to David, Dave do you think we should call Mo and tell him we already made one?

Yes, I know… Now I’m dreaming. Lol.

The yo-yo, I want them to make, I’m happy to say they already made. And it’s a serious as a heart attack.

Responsive D out of Delrin

I’ve also dreamed about a SS Deep State! Or any SS unresponsive slimline, similar to the Daytona SE but without that price tag, ideally.

Would also love to see more Delrin models with weight rings. How about a Delrin/Al version of my favorite OD, the Sugar Glider!

Maybe OD’s take on a capped yoyo? Been loving the offerings in that space lately too.

I’m not sure how financially viable it would be but I think it’d be cool if OD made something like a plastic Deep State to compete with other beginner plastic yoyos. Or like a fixed axle of some kind… hmm :thinking:

i know there’s been some word of another od x clyw release, it would be great if it was an undersized organic, similar to the wooly markmont, lighter but more rim weight, ultra light se,

i’d also like to see another od x mfd collab. the ridgeback fire devil came out sick, and i’d wager they could pit something nice together for is.

They should make a 3A yoyo! Also Ti Wizard/Warlock would be sick. Call it the Sorcerer or something :fire:

Sounds S U P R E M E, if you know what I mean

I would really love to see One Drop, make the ā€œOne Dropā€ A yoyo to showcase everything they have learned and dreamed of. Something customizable for weight and play styles. Maybe a 3-n-1 kind of game changer. Who knows what the Node knows, but I’m excited to see what Sean and Dave can whip up. Love y’all up there at One Drop!

Some Trillium’s - totally cool, but the ungodly $1K plus people are charging is ridiculous…

Well… I just wanna see some cool anodizes.
