So I need to know… is someone sending surprise gift yo-yos around here or is someone missing their recently ordered yo-yo?
Oooh what’d ya get? I think I’m missing one of those
You got a mystery yoyo? What is it?
This showed up at my house, but I didn’t order it. I reached out to Jake and he hasn’t responded yet. I have certainly seen kind acts of generosity on this forum, but I don’t instantly assume this is what has happened. I do; however, know that sometimes errors happen so that is why I am asking. I’d hate to think someone was out there waiting for their precious only to fall victim to a shipping discrepancy.
May I join?
It is definitely yours!
As the person that handled the extra orders, I can confirm that much.
Man!!! Someone is too darn cool!!! To whoever did that… thank you so much!! Just WOW!!! Now that I know it’s not someone else’s I must string it up and play it every day.
I cry.
So super happy for you, Steve! you deserve every good thing!
The only thing I am alloud to hint at, It was a fellow Boomer!
Yes, I will get you added shortly.
I love Red Yoyos as well. I was going to order that Workhorse but just couldn’t pass up the Space Wagon YYBC branded one.
Initial impressions are great. Haven’t had enough time tossing it yet to say for sure. The look/finish is stellar. Swapped it in place of my Weekender as my daily carry. Haven’t had much time to play but the first thing I miss is my pull starts over and over again. LOL!
I have noticed that mine is no longer as snappy as it was when it arrived. I’m gonna try a thicker string first, then try a bit of silicon grease in my bearing.
You can still pull start it rent your thumb and middle nails under the rim, letting it rest on them, and then pull start!
Workhorse fits a 4mm wide d bearing which fixed the sluggish response and makes it more 0a focused.
When I had the V1 proto I had it laced up with thick string, a 4mm bearing, and topped it off with silicon grease. It was mega snappy, but in a good way. Very consistent and reliable.
That is part of the Beauty and design of this yoyo. We wanted it to be “Tuneable” to the Owners style.
Its easier to make a Yoyo more responsive, than make it more unresponsive.
Thicker Lube, Slimer Bearing, thicker string… it will play how you want it too.
I was really torn between the space wagon and the cherrry bomb, so I did the only sensible thing and got one of each. They just arrived (along with a Plasm)!
Dude! I didn’t even know the Plasm was available yet.
And yes, very sensible - I wish I could have done that.
