Updated my strings page to better try and describe each string type, including upcoming strings:

@rkalajian Forgive my ignorance on this, but for the shirts, which one is the darker grey? I’m assuming it’s the Carbon Grey, but the Charcoal Heather is also making me second guess, lol.

Carbon is darkner

For those here who have their BST muted… The OG, the Silenus Pay it Forward is on last call, about to return home after 4 years of travel. If anyone is interested in this PIF they need to act quickly. :wink::+1:

Alright guys, due to string testing purposes. These will be the only ball bearing yo-yos I use until November 27th. By then I will give my feedback.

@rkalajian

Edit: for those who may wonder, I am using a Barracuda, and my family’s 2013 One Drop Benchmark O. (I’m really the only one who uses it though)

You realize that being a Boomer doesnt isolate you to only Fixies and Modern-responsive?

I know that. I’m using these yoyo’s because I’ve got some prototype strings on them, that I need to give feedback for.

Though I’ll have to break my promise. I forgot I have a yoyo coming in the mail. :sweat_smile:

Alright Boomers! I’m kind of getting tired of Snoopy. so, I want you guys to vote…

Should I keep “Snoopy”? or change my username to a combination of my favorite animals, a Cormorant, and an Antelope. “Cormoralope”!

(Sorry, I don’t know how to construct a poll, so give this a :heart: for Snoopy, or a :+1: for Cormoralope.)

Don’t ask too many questions… all you need to know is that “Cormoralope” is a bit of an inside joke.

Hey guys, just for reference. “Cormoralope” is an ancient inside joke between my brother and I, the name itself isn’t so special.

We were talking about how silly Cormorants were, kind of making fun of them. and then I started talking about the Bassalope, and accidentally called it a “cormorant-lope”, and now anytime one of us says a word wrong, we look at each other, and say “Cormoralope”.

It seems you are hoping for Cormalope but many have formed a bond with you as Snoopy and may have a hard time letting go. :cry::sob::rofl:

That’s it.

When I get serious, I put my hand on his shoulder, I lock eyes and assume my best dad voice, “snoop”. Yeah that just feels right. It would be weird to be like, “cormora”.

Yeah. Sorry big dawg. You’ll always be @snoopy to me. I regretted my username for awhile too, now it’s just a love hate thing

Okay, funny story. I woke up, and for whatever reason, cormoralope sounds stupid… which is good! But at the same time, I spent like an hour drawing that cormoralope. :sweat_smile:

We keepin da snoop’, boys. :sunglasses:

Just get a cormoralope tattoo so the art doesn’t go to waste.

Well, I’d rather not get a tattoo… ever.

But what do y’all think I should do with the Cormoralope artwork? Maybe, start a yo-yo company, or a baseball team or something. :laughing::rofl:
