Box 43 Tier 1 January 2020

This month’s throw is from MrYoYoThrower himself- The $- by Rain City Skills.

Who other than Rain City Skills would make a bootleg of a dollar store yoyo? “The Dollar” is a design based off of the infamous Dollar Tree YoYo (head to MrYoYoThrower.com/DTYY for the history. In short, it was a playable, ball bearing yoyo sold at Dollar Tree for a buck each. While they were available, madness, modding and gifting ensued. 

You are receiving a special edition of the Dollar, wolorway made exclusively for TMT. 

MrYoYoThrower wanted a new beginner yoyo from RCS so he made enough to get them at an affordable price. The design comes unresponsive but has a responsive slim bearing to boot. The box also comes with some fun Lego snaps a holster, and bag.

Enjoy!

Box 41 Tier 2 November 2019

This month’s throw is from Good Life. Riptide is Luke Trautwein’s yoyo. It’s been an honor to see Luke’s progression in yoyo throughout the years and his style come to what it is today. Luke thinks differently, breaking down tricks to their elemental core and reconstructing them in a more minimalist way. Although his tricks are extremely efficient and smart, you’ll always catch Traut having a good time on or off the stage. He lets his skill and practice do the talking, and after taking home titles like 4th in the US and 13th in the world this past year, everybody knows Luke has something unique to bring to the stage and community. When we started talking with Luke about a yoyo his favorites were the Igloo and Breeze, so It wasn’t a huge surprise that he wanted to borrow inspiration from them for the Riptide. With this inspiration in mind we set out to create a mono metal that would be very stable for competition tricks and horizontal play. We wanted Riptide to have the same light nimble feeling as some of his favorite bi metals, but we knew as a mono making it heavier would only add stability. At 65 grams we found it was a perfect balance between an agile and stable throw, making sure it has a unique feel and the weight compliments the shape correctly. The shape is very close to being a “strict” V shape but has a very subtle bubble to it, inspired by our previous designs the Gully and Gulch. Luke used the Riptide to compete and take sixth at Mass States recently, and we can’t wait to see his tricks and freestyles change and evolve as his yoyo continues to evolve with him!
Specs:
4.6mm gap width
65 Gram total
