I’m in for an original spec as well, I think the one in transit is the Slightly Alive 'Orse, so would like to complete the horse family. I’m jealous of Cody’s Golden Wattle, would like to special request one of those please. 🙂 ---

My fellow Boomers like maple but I wouldn’t shy away from something exotic or colorful as long as it’s not too heavy. What’s the weight on these in the OG dimensions? ---

The rims on the v2 seem a lot closer to this one (v0?) It’s around 3mm deep, and I can still pull start and fingerspin on it. V2 seems to have a slightly narrower profile though, which I prefer. This one’s 35mm wide. ![20240803_095804](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/yoyoexpert1/original/4X/5/8/f/58f66430b4d9276699e8ae571fb7345f54b29b61.jpeg) ![20240803_095733](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/yoyoexpert1/original/4X/e/1/d/e1d37030cd178a5536b8060cb133bb325252bf70.jpeg) ---
