I love YoYoJam and I have a Lyn Fury who still needs to get its bearing replaced because I cracked it while cleaning.
But aside from yoyos, designs and everything. Here's something that'd be great as well:

Promotion. I'm aware that YYJ team players make their own videos and that's great. But without a one sole channel [like YouTube], it gets confusing on where to look. It'd be great to see product promotion and player profile videos in one channel. So that I won't have to go to xxxAddicTubexxx for Mickey's, YoGrant for well...you know who it is, and more and more.

Packaging. I know it's not really much of a big deal because people throw their boxes/packages away after getting it but it'd be nice to have a new rework on the Packaging. It's sometimes disappointing that a $15 Lyn Fury has the same packaging as a $127 PHENOM. The same green packages sometimes kills the joy of getting a new throw. If I were to get a PHENOM, I'd like to get the package and be amazed like "OH MY!! A YOYOJAM PHENOM!!" and not something like "oh, it's the same green package. must be a yoyojam"  Something different would be great. I mean, you guys can always ask JD for a few pointers on designing something like packages.

Website. I noticed that the YYJ website doesn't get updated often. Player profiles are outdated [Mickey - 2006 champion as most recent] and doesn't give a nice explanation on each one of the players. I know that no one reads it, but it's worth the time to get it taken care of for the very few who actually read it

tl;dr - sorry, I have to torture you all. Read it :]. LOLJK - better promotion, update website and new better packaging.

Hype for Go Big. Ben is so cool and totally deserves a sig. Yay for rubber rims!!!!

Good things come in little pacckages.

Good things come in little pacckages.

What I meant is that a complete makeover on packaging that will not compromise their budget. Maybe still keep the same translucent green package but with a few tweaks on them. Like the PHENOM is pretty much a luxury yoyo: a nicer package would fit its worth.
Again, no one really cares about the packaging because they get thrown away after getting the shipment but it never hurts for the people do care to be amazed and catch its eye :]

OMG I just got Fiesta XX now there's Go BIG offstring with Rubber rims =___=

I mean, there's nothing wrong with Fiesta XX... only that I'm paranoid for cracking it =(
I would have definitely went for rubber rimmed if i knew this new yo was coming along...

Ohh well... bummer

XD

A friend of mine cracked his at worlds, but it took a HUGE hit to do it ( It flew onto the stage while people were practicing)
He got it replaced though :]

 How do you tweak a box ? Just curious ?
 For the most part I find YYJ packaging to be great but I do agree that perhaps they could offer a 'premium packaging' along the lines of the YYF 888 Box Set, I mean 125.00 for a yoyo it really wouldn't hurt to dress it up, a bit.
 The reality is that they sell practically all the yoyos they produce, so reworking the packaging would seem counterproductive to the accountant, and the accountant often has the last word.
