 16 Battosai prototypes JUNE 12th only 5 left to reserve!!!
ok so im actually rather excited about the release of my second yoyo, so even though i have no pics yet (the protos are being made as i type i hope) i want to see what you guys think.  (i know its kinda sketchy, its a picture of a print of a file that didnt wanna print right  )  6061 t6 aluminum 51.25mm OD 40mm width estimated 67.5 grams design- think mini noctu, but a little less lethal (no offense Frank and Dom, you know i love you guys  ). i rounded off the outer edges and added a tad of weight to the rims, but reduced the inner dome (not point) by imbedding a cross scar design into it (the cross is symmetrical, so dont fret about it lol). the end result will be a super fast man-slayer, errr, i mean yoyo. if i get enough love i might make a few out of delrin too

 Re: lets talk Battosai!!!
Sounds like win to me. If I like the look, I may need a few raw to anodize.

 Re: lets talk Battosai!!!
Schmoove = kickback = fail.
Although, this schmooved Mary09 doesn't play half bad.

Also, i think the weight is perfect, it sounds like the perfect weight for me. Cant wait to get my proto, this may end up being my main 1a yoyo to compete with.

 Re: lets talk Battosai!!!
ok, so im getting some questions about schmooving. im not going to schmoove it, as DocPop owns that i believe. i more had an idea of tiny waves in the inner area to reduce friction and weight (mostly weight)

 Re: lets talk Battosai!!!
theyll have protos circulating by chrstmas, but i just had to swap machinists. my present one hasnt responded to any of my attempts to reach him in the past 9 days. rest assured. i still have my money locked up, so he didnt get to steal anything but my 400$ deposit........ i really hope the next macinist takes this project seriously

the inner hub design is a cross slash, and YES the IRG is similar to the BvsM
