How do you guys come up with all these wonderful names for your yoyos

September 25, 2016

Sometimes it's our team, sometimes it's just Chris and I getting all slappy in our Slack chat, sometimes we just spit something out and it sticks. It's different for everything. -Steve

How does the Banana Hammock and the Creep play?

September 25, 2016

Banana Hammock is really stable and feels like a super fast banana. I know that's a ridiculous, bullsh*t way to describe a return top, but that's totally how it feels to me.

---

The Creep feels like every fat, comfortable, old-school, classic-shape return top you've ever used, except that it plays 100% modern and can handle anything you can come up with. It's amazing.

---

I've been using the Banana Hammock for 5A and the Creep for 1A, and not much else lately, if that gives you any indication. -Steve

On an older post you said that the difference between the 3x2 and 2x2 Kraft boxes is that premium models have the 3x2. What makes the Manatee Compass, and the Big Dipper not a premium model?

September 25, 2016

It's purely a pricing thing. Those are all less expensive models. The Yeti just doesn't fit in those boxes, otherwise we'd put it in there as well.

---

They sure play premium, though, don't they? Our last 6 production runs have had 0% b-grades. Compared to machining/anodizing in North America (which historically gave us 15% - 20% b-grades per run), that's pretty amazing. So we're happy with the quality. Hope you are too. :) -Steve

What throw would you recommend that fits a fast style of play but also a slow style?

September 25, 2016

Probably the Compass or Manatee. They can do both. -Chris

I just wanted to thank you guys for sponsoring Anthony Rojas. Without that I would never have discovered his genius. His nats freestyle was amazing!

Do the dipper and yeti have bigger gaps or something than the rest of your throws? I feel that they are quite a bit more unresponsive.

September 22, 2016

Pretty sure the gaps are the same, design-wise, but there is obviously more variance in plastic than aluminum. -Steve

Did you ever get into juggling anything other than balls? I had a friend who could do up to 5 clubs/knives or 4 rings!

Amun Chawla

September 22, 2016

I got *ok* with 5 rings at one point, but never got past 3 clubs. Couldn't figure them out. I also juggle knives, torches, bowling balls, all kinds of stuff. -Steve

Hows the control on the Borealis?

September 22, 2016

Pretty good. It favors a player with finesse, though. It's not as forgiving as an Igloo or Blizzard. -Steve

What are currently the most favorite clyw yoyo(s) with clyw team members?

September 22, 2016

It's actually pretty spread out right now. We've got such a broad offering right now that everyone very much has whatever they want to kinda gravitate towards. Borealis, Compass, Blizzard, Igloo, and Manatee all seem to be in heavy rotation. -Steve

why does yotricks not sell yeti 2??

September 22, 2016

Not every shop decides to carry everything. YoTricks seems to have some pretty specific plans as far as what products they carry, and I don't think our line fits in it very well. -Steve

Do you plan on making kendamas or 4a yoyos ever? I would love a CLYW Offstring Kendama

September 22, 2016

We made kendamas...twice, actually! I think I still have a couple boxes of them in my storage unit. I'll have to dig them out and put them back in the shop. -Steve

Not sure what you mean by "smoothly", but if you contact Jeffrey I'm sure he'll help you out. https://www.facebook.com/luftverk -Steve
