Do you guys have stickers for sale? If so where do I find them? I'm really looking for one of those big clyw ones with the yeti on them!

Getting sticker packs made is on my list of things to do...it's just not currently at the TOP of that list. But we'll get there. -Steve

what exactly are the problems with the yeti?

The material is very coarse. It's unique and amazing, but it's a very coarse plastic and depending on the string you use, it can cause premature wear. There is absolutely no way to account of all types of string anymore, so using a plastic this awesome unfortunately means that it doesn't play nice with some strings.
The thin wall between the bearing spacers and the response pad is too thin, and can break if people yank out their bearings badly (which they usually do) or if you sand the inner wall to reduce string wear you can accidentally sharpen that rib, which then cuts your strings.
The press-fit nuts are generally centered, but the hole the axle protrudes from has too much play and can introduce vibe.
And the specific contour of the inner wall leading down to the bearing cavity has an angle that, when combined with the coarse plastic, can roughen up over time and cut strings.
The return top plays beautifully when it's all dialed in, but there are just too many problems. Time to move on. -Steve

Steve Brown, is engraving the final step in the production of The Orca? If not, could you please tell me what comes after engraving? Thank you for taking the time to read and respond to all of these bogus questions.

I've posted this before, but Ask.fm really stinks for finding old answers.
Machining / Anodizing / Assembly / Testing / Engraving / Packaging / Solicitation / Shipping To Retailers / Release / Fulfillment / OMG MY ORDER IS HERE!
That's the order for how production happens. It's usually a 5 - 8 week trip, depending on any delays at any stage of the process. -Steve

For the final AC2 run, are there any with the City of Champions colorway? Zach won tons of stuff last year and it seems pretty fitting.

I honestly don't remember what we ordered. I'll get pics from the assembly team soon, though. -Steve

So I was looking at my WM2 and the bearing seat is super recessed compared to my Summit. Does that have to do with weight distribution?

It has to do with the Summit using the Side Effects axle system. -Steve

hey Steve! Is the AC2 similar to the Summit?

The profile is kind of similar, but the weight distribution and play are totally different. Summit is a little slower and more solid, the AC2 is faster and floatier. -Steve

When can we see shark vs zombie beaver on a run of return tops, I really want one to match my og bvm.

Coming soon. -Steve

How long does it take to assemble?

Assuming there are no problems, 1 - 2 weeks for assembly, testing, packaging, shipping to retailers. -Steve

How many runs of the yeti has there been?

One molding run of black, one molding run of the colors. We still have parts left over from those runs. -Steve
