possibly one of my favorite General-Yo’s and most definitely my favorite undersized throw. is that a cool color set up like the hat trick?

So much want. I finally realize the beauty of organic throws. The Hatrick and the Katz Meow are what I’m saving for.

Idk maybe I’m just a little over sensitive due to being on higher then normal doses of my meds, but that wasn’t an overly long post, but I stand behind what I said.

Sorry to digress

Let’s get back to talking about awesome hat tricks!

I’m still blown away at how well Vendetta did on that run!

One of the best times of my life was when Vandetta and his wife met us at cal-sates in 09.  
It was the day before the contest, and I was a vendor.  
He had 40 halfs freashly anodized with the USA colorway.  
We assemled them in record time.  
This was a one of a kind out of the batch I have kept dear to my heart.  
I miss ya Justin!
