I didn't make the deadline for Worlds due to some unexpected variables I encountered when dealing with wood. I had the chance to meet with Eric and attend his workshops at the contest. He is a true master and a wealth of knowledge! After many conversations and watching Eric mod a Velocity to accept two of the rims, I have a better grip on how to improve the dimensional accuracy of the finished product. Hopefully, they'll turn out and be available to the public soon. Well… I didn’t make the deadline for Worlds due to some unexpected variables I encountered when dealing with wood.

Something I know Steve and Eric will do great with. This is something I cannot wait to see, and I'd love to try one. Wow, that looks incredible. Something I know Steve and Eric will do great with.

Gives you a reminder how far things have come and its always fun to throw for a while. If that is going to be a metal yo with wood rims, well, im not too sure how well thats going to work. I love what SPYY stands for as a company - no hype, undeniably accurate, and willing to try something a bit different. However i hope they dont fall into a trend of producing novel yos. I thought the radian superlight was a neat idea, and turned out really well. If not a little bit quirky - it still played really well and was a good yoyo. I'm not so sure that you can justify putting wood rims on a yo from a players point of view. Wood is good because its retro, its a throw back to the “old” days.
