Have any of you tried the Bassalope? I’d love to know what it’s like.

It’s lots of fun, I’ve played both the small and large bearing version. It was designed to be kind of an in-between at the time, was larger than the Wooly Marmot but smaller than the Peak. Very comfortable and has that "Old School” feel, but also pretty light and agile compared to others around its time, with an almost mid-wall. The C-bearing version was created to give it a little more casual play and less bite on the response.

What are the specs for the Workhorse v1 & v2?

I’m looking to record:

Diameter
Width
Weight
Gap Width
Bearing Size
Axle
Response
Material

Thanks!

(Here’s my list so far, if anyone is interested)

All hail the cup, haha. Thank you so much again for everything. A lot of people here excited about this. I know it’s going to be killer! :slightly_smiling_face:

Anyone play with a YYR Fluffy Fluffy yet? My main jam forever has been the FH One AL with the plastic caps and the Fluffy Fluffy is basically exactly that except without caps so probably with way better weight distribution. Super appealing to me so I was wondering how it’s hitting for other people so far.

Hello everyone,

This is my first post on the forum and I would like to join the Boomers Club. :slightly_smiling_face:

I started throwing again a bit more than a year ago. I am all in now! :grin: I started as a teen during the boom in 97/98.

I am looking forward to the G2 Workhorse release.

I feel this in my bones, haha. Ponytail or side pigtails are my go-to. The other day she came home from daycare and someone had put Dutch braids in her hair and she keeps talking about how much she liked them, and I’m just like “oh no, it’s coming,” lol!
