Yoyo Boomers Club

It’s as expected, but also hard to explain. An enigma of a yoyo.
It’s big, beefy, and hefty, but on string-play, surprisingly agile and light feeling. It’s kind of slim compared to it’s overall diameter which I think partially causes this effect. Unique and enjoyable throw, but also demands respect and precision.

I have one and I love it! Never would’ve gone for it on my own but I got one in a trade and I’m so glad I did. It’s a super fun yoyo.

Has anyone spoken to @Grendel recently? he hasn’t been online in awhile; I haven’t been around long enough to know if this is typical.

I hope it was a nice meeting. I miss seeing yall and listening to the banter.

I tried to be on but I just spent the last 13 hours holding up a kneecapped network, only for the core switch to finally burn out. I had to throw an emergency stack together and, let me tell you, schools aren’t known for keeping extra equipment around (at least expensive networking equipment)… it was a nightmare. No one will appreciate what I’ve done, but it’s a learning experience. Trial by fire since the boss couldn’t help. All I know is there’s a Mac flap going on and it’s going to wreak havoc once the kids start pulling bandwidth. I hate cobbling things together.

Hey Everyone! Just letting everyone know that I finally begged Jake to let us preorder the AL7 Pac Storm Mongoose. If you are interested in helping us reach our order minimum I would be super thankful.

Not a fan of thw RBC either @rkalajian .:sweat_smile:

The Harbinger is a different story. Its a lot better.

Oh, and hi guys! Just around here for a little while.:slightly_smiling_face:

Hopefully I can make the next meet, @Pun1sh3R .

Too small is the problem. With a larger diameter it would feel more powerful and have higher halls to catch and hold stalls and varials better. As @AaronW said, seek out a Harbinger. Same weight, much bigger diameter and much better play.

Trouble is, every time Mark and I trid to upsize the RBC design, it just weighed too much for my liking. The Harbinger is able to be a full sized design because it has no caps.
The gap was just a hair to narrow on the RBC too, Harbinger has a 2.4mm gap rather than the 2.3mm of the RBC.

We are addressing the issues with the RBC by releasing a polycabonate larger one next year.
