Post 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.

Image (i know its kinda sketchy, its a picture of a print of a file that didnt wanna print right :D )

Image

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 :D ). 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

Schmoove = kickback = fail.

Although, this schmooved Mary09 doesn't play half bad.

what Justin said, all the schmooved yoyos i have tried or owned have had some sort of kickback and i really dont see a change in play compared to them and a non schmooved yoyo, it just makes them sound cooler and look fancier.

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.

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)

i think if you take it down dont go any lower than 65-66g that seems like a good in between weight

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
