Thank you for reminding me how good/fun Pleak is! I haven’t picked it up in a while.
Mine runs super quite which is odd for most “Plastics”. This thing regens like no other yo-yo!

Isn’t that Peakhand PC/Pom? I know @wayne927 at Layer Infinity has a Peak Cap. From the sounds of it that run is going to be more limited than the AL. I guessing the same issue that @bjardin had with the FH1 Delrin numbers.

Haha kinda
The only thing I don’t like about the delrin peakhand is it’s too snappy. Its binds are tighter than anything I’ve ever tried before, including a few A bearing yoyos. The aluminum version has looser binds so I prefer it
Gotta try the peak caps from Layer infinity

Is it not an A bearing?
It is. I meant it was even snappier than the other A bearing yoyos I’ve tried

I love the binds on my large bearing Freehand Delrin. I wish the Peakhand had a large bearing version.

Erm… Is it too late to say here that I like the Peak 2?

Peak 2 is a good yoyo, it is just lacks a bit of a “spark”, as already been written above. I do not hate it, and i have two of them 
I`m sorry for off-topic, but does this
means that P3ak will be quite big in diameter and width? I have nothing against Plastic Peak, it is great, but yoyo of that size in metal… Kinda “eeh, no” for me personally

I agree with you. The community wants a P3ak as close as possible to the OG in size, shape and playability. People want the “soul” that was given by the “old design garbage” that the old Peaks had 
The Plastic Peak is cool, but I don’t think making a metal one with that size and shape will calm the community’s desire for Peaks…It would be a good tribute if they recreated it as faithfully as possible to the originals, as they have done with other yo-yos (like the new 888 or the Ti-vayder)

Darn, now this sounds like something positively old-school-ish.
Thank you.

I had a deep look in my crystal ball and saw a post from the future:
The problem with the P3ak is that we fixed the Peak, and as yoyospirit so aptly explained, people didn’t want us to fix it.
Cum grano salis.

Yeah, as much as I hate to admit it.
Majority of consumers wants a remake of the original Peak. No need in lying to you @unklesteve
It would be a huge success, especially if some of the old guard were involved making it like Onedrop and it came in the classic color ways
Does that mean we deserve it? Nope, lol.
I’ll buy whatever the P3ak becomes and I’ll be stupid happy
Edit: I could be wrong, a poll would be cool

One Drop never made the Peak.
The chunky feel and fidelity to the original shape is what makes the Plastic Peak so good, but it fixed the weight distribution and play issues without straying too far from the original design. Taking that same design applying that same level of fidelity but in aluminum at the original specs, while still fixing the play in the same way that the plastic did? That’s the ideal we’re aiming for.

Does the Plastic Peak grind well? (Fingers, Arms, Palms, Thumb)
Not really its design forte’
What kind of materials do grind well?
That sounds good!
We trust You;)

This is spot on. Peakhand AL kind of addresses this as well, without caps its more like a Peak 2 with Caps more like an OG Peak. These Delrin Caps gets this Salmon Fade up to 68 grams and it feels very similar to my 2nd Run Peak uncandidly. Playing with Kitty Normal the older version.

Ive only ever thrown the peak 2. Felt good, I liked the shape and the finish. As an unbiased player, the original sounds objectively worse as a functional skill toy, especially considering the vibe and the painted on finish that might make grinds difficult. I’m definitely interested in playing it but I doubt it would be my cup of tea. Glad to see so many people are passionate about it though!
