Yeah, Michael Kurti and Chandler Steele run Good Life, both are very well known players.

Yeah Iām just of the opinion that just because someone can yo-yo well doesnāt mean they can make yo-yos well. Not all players make good coaches.
As opposed to someone like Tyler Severance and Recess, as far as I am aware he got plenty of experience on how to run a company and design yo-yos while working for yoyofactory.
Iām also not a fan in general of smaller runs/extremely limited numbers of runs, I donāt like the idea of having a limited window of time to snag a yo-yo. Iām very anti-hypebeast.

First of all, the Elite has brass rims and I feel that that āoverpowersā the inner-ring title.
The Checkmarks denote yoyos that I currently own, so since I donāt really need another edge in my collection, I didnāt want to change the title to āBeyond.ā
Also, since I tried to keep all of the yoyos in the list within a relative price range and within a āavailibilityā range, neither the TiSS or the Beyond were included in the wishlist. It also was meant to have more of an emphasis on being a ācollection goalā than a āwish list.ā
Thanks for the feedback and the criticism! if you have any other suggestions shoot here!

Iād like a torrent to just fall into my lap just to say I have one 
. Other than that, any delrins, any g2 swirl because theyāre cool, and a raw cut because it was the first high end yoyo Iāve wanted, and the promotional video was epic to a 12 y/o me

Resurrecting this thread as my wishlist has changed and basically finalized:
Definitely plan on getting ASAP:
OG Gully
Another Breeze
Gulch ( doesnāt match my preferences exactly but Iāve got a Good Life fetish)
Plan on getting at some point, no rush:
Shutter and Wide Angle
Replay Pro
Iāve taken a bunch of stuff off here because Iāve realized after getting a bunch of new stuff itās very unlikely I find anything that beats the Breeze. So Iām just a Good Life fanboy now.

SPYY Orbitron 5000
AnY Miroc 2
Werrd TFL88 (Groovy Lady)

Still waiting for a day I can justify spending 
on
Grail
Quail
420
Life
Itās more than just wanting the yoyos, Iāve got a soft spot for Kimmitt, and I think it would be really cool to own some of his [their] stuff. A-rt is more than just another brand to me; I just dig their whole approach to yo. It resonates more with me than any other brand.

Covenant
The new G2 bimetal that Jake is working on

All of their stuff is truly great. Selling a couple other yoyos take have the funds for one is worth it in my opinion. I really hard to pick a favorite. Have you tried any before?

No, I havenāt tried any of their stuff. Iāve considered selling some of my stuff, but I have slimmed down my collection significantly in the past several months. My collection consists of yo-yos that I either really really enjoy playing, or yo-yos that are sentimental because they were gifts.
And apparently they are basically disbanding and all moving on in life. Jensen recently mentioned that he was going to be releasing his very last signature yoyo in the near future.
Itās nostalgic, and perhaps Iām a little bit too empathetic, but I feel actual sadness about all of this.

Yeah I saw that post. Idk if they are really ending it or not. I know they are working on different careers. I also know Jensen is still working on turning wood. Itās hard to read Jensen but I think that a-rt will be ending soonish or will take a new shape.
I really understand where they are coming from and I think they have achieved what they wanted to. Just sucks to watch them go. Definitely my favorite brand.

Iāve not seen it yet, other than the artwork, but CLYW releasing the Bear Trap has me very excited 
That plus new Basecamp, SF PLSTC, new CoreCo, new a/Rt. Itās going to be a fun year in gathering yoyos. Looking forward to January 1 to try all these yoyos Iāve picked up this year

Yep. Heard the new one has caps, but they are not removable like the original. Really hoping the shape is the same.
