It means we make a little less but yeah, worth it to make sure a great yo-yo is available. As Augie said, no changes, made in the USA (so all you people who have a problem with ‘made in china’ better put your money where your mouth is and buy 2!)

It’s nice to see that you’ve got your eye on the community. I myself try to run my business in low margins mostly because I can afford to do so, and it helps smaller promoters higher world class sound services for their events because they otherwise wouldn’t be able to afford it.

So, I think that’s great that you are willing to sacrifice some corporate bottom-line in order to “share the love” with others. That’s nice of YYF to be willing to do that in an age where greed seems to be more prevalent.

And if you’re gonna go wave the “Made in USA” flag, well, then I might just have to go be a BOSS and get a BOSS and throw like a BOSS.

I’ll be the first to admit that YYF throws and my hands don’t get along, but the BOSS was one of the only YYF throws that played awesome for me. I wish I had the extra cash right now because I’d be all about getting another one.
