yoyofriends have a history of making yoyos that utilize titanium, like the TiSS Hummingbird, Ti Sunbird, and recently our collaboration with Damian Puckett on the Alliance. One problem with titanium is the high cost, thus making it less accessible for a lot of people. For this project we want to use different ways to make a titanium yoyo that is fun and economical so a lot more people can have their own titanium yoyo.
To make the yoyo economical, we decided to do a mini undersized yoyo. First draft is based on the Alliance with a diameter of 44.5mm with Koi's inner cup. We also added a groove on the outer rim design for aesthetics.
We want this project truly for the masses, so we contacted Andre from yoyoexpert to collaborate with us on this design as they are one of the most popular yoyo retailers in the world.
We thought of what if we tie some elements of Hummingbird since it is our most successful model, this will make the yoyo more yoyofriends and interesting.
The end result is exciting, the yoyo looks fun and unique.
After 2 months of testing from the yoyofriends players and yoyoexpert, we found out the yoyo needs more power, We need to increase the overall weight of the yoyo. We also realize the yoyo is too wide for its size, causing stability issues.
We decided to optimize the design of the prototype by getting inspiration from the original design. We ended up with 2 prototypes, a 37mm design with straight rims and a 39mm design with more rounded rims. We also increased the weight to 61g. After testing, the 39mm width design is the standout. It is more comfortable to catch, slightly more powerful and it feels more unique with the rounded rim weight distribution.
We also asked Andre from yoyoexpert to give us more insight by testing out the yoyo. Here is the feedback from him. " I really like this yoyo, it has a good feel for a titanium and I like the undersized design. Overall it has very good control and speed for a titanium yoyo. It binds very tight, so perfect gap width. The only thing that could be improved is the fingerspin dimple.I can get it to stick and fingerspin, but it dies very quickly, I think it needs to be a little wider and have a more gradual surface, but I am not sure there is enough room there to fix it without messing up the weight of the yoyo and the need for axle depth."
We implemented the idea and flattened the inner cup with a gradual slope, although the fingerspin is still not ideal due to the surface property of titanium, but it did make it easier to land and spread out the weight distribution more on the outside of the yoyo for more power and stability.
After another testing run , we think it met our expectations on design, shape and width. It felt like a fun tiny competition yoyo, easy to control, bind and full of performance.
The entire prototype cycle lasted for nearly a year, We want to specially thank Brian from yotricks and Andre from yoyoexpert and the yoyofriends player team for valuable feedback and suggestions on this project.
Here at yoyofriends we want everyone to have access to a full titanium yoyo and spread the characteristics of titanium and other materials. We hope we achieved that goal with this project.
The artwork is TiNY being worked on in a lab in a petri dish. It signifies the time this project took and how many tests it has been through till the final production, and of course how tiny the yoyo is." from here yoyofriends.store/blogs/story...

[@musmannawaz88]

Could u tell me the use of the magic yoyo bag?

[@epikgamerfood9020]

Looks like a magicyoyo n8

[@AngryGumball]

Just ordered one (Blue crackle version) - how would you say it compares to something like the One Drop Clique? Currently that's one of my favorite mini yoyo.

[@isaacsaenz8402]

Can you do a review on the c3yoyodesign cyber crash 2 there are no current reviews on it

[@johnsnowie4157]

I own one and it's very nice. Very smooth, quiet, and long spinning. th-cam.com/users/shorts-9yZWfPGkzU

[@tylercummings4839]

What is that reverse follow type trick at 3:06? that is sick

[@DimebagDan81]

If anyone's looking for a good bi-metal mini for a lil less the Mini Star 2 from General Yo is superb! This one's gonna be my next, though, gotta have that sparky boi! Thanks for the great review!

[@vision821k4]

Happy Easter Dylan - Just used your ear-wax method today for a clogged ear. Nothing used to work for me until I discovered that video.

[@jameszetterman4487]

There will be a larger release of these, not just the pre-order. I know they're coming to Yoyoexpert.

[@yo-zo2919]

really??do u know when?😮😮😮

[@jameszetterman4487]

@yo-zo Philip said it should be in the next few weeks. They made a decent number of these, which is a main reason the price is pretty low.

[@DatoAntidze-gd8vf]

Hey bro pls can you recomend me good balisong trainer ive never had one and i really want to try it i live in outsidw US and nothing can ship to my location from amazon for about 20$

[@gtmuzz]

You can get a balisong comb. There’s a hair comb instead of a blade. It’s pretty decent.

[@Dwrecksk8Yo]

Hey Dylan since this is the only way I know how to contact you ima just tell you here but that yoyo company that you made the short about a few weeks ago, of course you know how
Much they push this products on Amazon but anyways after seeing the TH-camr YAP YOYO’s review of the bi metal one and him saying it was like a bi metal y03 hertz and then while I was buying another yoyo I noticed that the rose color way was 33 dollars on sale abs it’s normally 50 and so I was curious and bought it even though that dude did the same thing to me with saying free yo-yos and I asked him how could he give away free yo-yos and he messaged me back and he broke down how it all worked and blah blah and then I immediately stopped talking to him, then I saw your short about i was like oh ok so I’m not the only one that has a problem with this. But then I saw that rose color way for less than I paid for your yoyo and it was same day delivery so it tempted me and I gave in but tbh I thought he just sent that yap yoyo dude a good one but if you ever bought it it would be bad but to be fair it’s legit one of the best bi metals I’ve ever used but then I realized wait a second this is almost like a bimetal hertz and then I looked down at my hot diggity and was like holy shit and I held it up to it and it’s straight up a bi metal hot diggidy which the hertz and your yoyo with hybrid ceramic concave bearings are both siiiiiiiiiiiiiuck. And that yoyo is siiiiiiiick. But it makes me think he’s getting magic yoyo to machine his yo-yos.
