Perfect.

Sorry to disappoint y’all, I took the counterweight off after I remembered the yeti was my first yo-yo. (Or was it my velocity? I never can remember).

I can tell you that the Barracuda plays 5a very well.

It did originally come with a counterweight back in 2012.

Seriously, I’ve been getting so much stuff recently. It’s been such a joy receiving such gifts. My siblings ask me every 5 minutes if I’m getting a new package, haha. (I can’t put my butterfly down, I’ve been watching a ludicrous amount of Ed Haponiks videos, basically stealing ideas, haha) @Slestak75 I can’t wait to receive your package. I’ve been dying to try an FH1 Al since it came out, and I would constantly use my brothers old Barracuda, man he never got to use that thing, it was always in my grubby hands!

Edit: so sorry! I forgot I was also receiving some string from @Yodaddyo and @rkalajian as well as a package from @Pun1sh3R . My mailbox floweth over! :heart:

So we hook you on fixed axel (0A)…

Then we introduce you to Modern Responsive!

Seriously. Search Yoyo Boomer Club on You Tube and we have Tutorials for 0A strung out through our Fixed Axel February and Modern Responsive March events from earlier in the year.

Dont forget to check out Overtinkering’s channel. He has additional tutorials.

These are by default around 9 or 10g depending on specific filament but they’re not very infilled so I can get them to whatever weight (within reason).

If you need to go further that’s when you add like fishing lure weights or whatever iron/steel weights (balls) to the print

I already watch both! They are brilliant! :grinning:

In fact, I was just working on my one handed stall (if that’s what it’s called, I rarely follow tutorials, I just make it all up) but I had to stop because I kept hitting my hand… it hurt a bit. Haha

For any UK people i have set up a page for us in UK as the movember page would not let us join the YYBC one due to being different countries.

I haven’t heard any negatives yet. Club Colors = Throwback Jazz Cup (Purple, Teal, and White or Gold accents where applicable)?

Haha, we can probably take it to a vote or discuss at the next meet.
In the meantime, I’m cool with having that for the Russell Kasm regardless.
When does that decision need to be made?

I think I kind of liked it like this with the gold to be honest.

True cup would kind of look more something like this
