[Roodog]

I dont even get whats going on with that yoyo from the pic. Are there free spinning rims like the ones that YYj put out a while back?

kyo said they are attached with set screws (im assuming through the holes on the inner rim, correct me if im wrong Kyle)

[kyo]

You can't really see the screws in those images, they're on the flat section on the inside of the rim. The little arches you see in the outer rim that come down, that's where they screw into.

Kyle

[Roodog]

Thanks for the explaination, I get it now.So the outer rim is attached by a set of screws to the inner portion, makes for a really different looking yoyo but is there a functinal purpose? Is there any adjustments that can be made to the screw set up to affect play or is it a stationary set up?

[kyo]

It's an art piece.

It is very nice, and it certainly plays well.. and I know a lot of work went into it.. but as somebody who owns yo-yos in that price range or above, I can say with certainty that it isn't $1500 good.

Kyle

[xfredericox]

if you pay 1500 for a yoyo, it isn't about performance anymore imho.

A yoyo will never play 1500$ good, except maybe if it would run on a solar-energy-driven motor, self-stabilizes, mows my lawn weekly AND solves the global warming issue...

This yoyo must be seen as a piece of art, not as pocket fodder, and so anything goes pricewise, really...

[tyler severance]

last topic was deleted.. I assume this one will be as well because god forbid we talk about a yoyo that isn't sold here.

Anyway, it's a nice yoyo.. it plays well.. it's NOT worth 1500 by any stretch of the imagination.

Kyle

god forbid this board be used for it's real purpose...to support yoyonation and promote their business.

Have no issue with that, and somebody mentioned above people were basically advertising another store.. didn't realize that, and it isn't cool.. so I see why it was deleted.

However, it's ridiculous to exclude all conversation about a yo-yo simply because it isn't being sold here. Obviously that isn't being done, as this thread is still here.. so not really an issue.

Of course, I wouldn't want to get in the way of you being a jackass to me every chance you get, so have fun with that

Wow Kyle...getting personal on the public thread....

tyler3490, the reason your thread yesterday was deleted was because you linked to another store and the pictures you were showing off had the name of the store still on them.

kyo.... chill out.  If you want to attack Tyler please do it through PM.

Keep the talk about the yoyo only and it wont get removed.

[gidikh]

We should all chip in, give it to JonRob so he can drop it on the concrete in SaveDeth III and say he's not worried about the wobble.

[SuperPokenerd]

It's only(<-sarcasm) $900 now.

These are some pics I took..Granted they arent very great in describing what was done..these were the top 5.
