Sleeves for No Jives seems to be readily available still. Would be cool if someone designed an AL fixie that used them. Or maybe just drill a 1/8” hole through some dowels and have a thin axle rod that goes through it.

Maayybeeeee…. A dowel that’s been drilled out that can have Side Effects run through it. Now I’m talkin’ straight crazy talk.

Stem too! But then we’re locked into a specific response size.

You can use the stems without the response same with cabal guts.

Oh I didn’t know that. I thought the caps that hold the response pads were integrated with the axle.

I threw my friend’s silver bullet and was really surprised how good the throw and return feel was. I was too scared to try anything else with it because of its weight, but yeah, the throw and return felt great.

Edit: it appears it only weighs 50g, so I don’t know why I felt it was so heavy.

I picked up a b-grade cerakote chunk, and its only been used for 5a. Then again I just throw my favorite yoyo at the time for 5a cause its the style i find most relaxing. Bought it chipped, so all the additional chips ive given the coating with cw dings and drops are just extra character!

Its the Clubs first Prototype unresponsive. We have been thinking about making some small tweaks and doing a 2nd Prototype run.

Will most likely be the beginning of next year.

The long and short of it is that I’m a machinist in California, and I’ve recently taken up yoyo design. I’ve come up with a few designs inspired pretty heavily by the old yoyos I used to play with as a kid in the late 90’s and early 2000’s. My most recent design seems to be worth something, and everyone to whom I’ve shown the prototypes I’ve cut has very much enjoye…

Sure but your discount isn’t adjusted for inflation and comes in 1920s currency so that’ll be 5 cents off. Your welcome. Enough for my grandpa to buy a pack of gum when he was a kid.
