I’m a big fan of orange throws! I have more of those, than any other color. ---

As I age, **my** **time becomes increasable valuable** so when I choose to throw why not be with quality? If I get a ding…so be it. **El Mijo sl checks all the boxes for a responsive EDC carry**. I say go for it. Of course after I buy mine. In heat of the moment, don’t forget ordering fixie bearing. **PSA-** Long posts bore me so I’ll end it there & full disclosure I am not sponsored :wink: ---

Every brand has a beginning, but ours started right here with a spinning axle, endless hours of research, testing, and a vision. When we first launched, we created just 30 exclusive yoyos to get our dream off the ground. That small batch gave us our lite, our momentum, and the community we cherish today. To those who grabbed one of those original 30: thank you for believing in us before anyone else did. You didn’t just buy a throw; you helped us write chapter one. More details to come.
