Isn't the owner of Barely Legal YoYos a former CLYW team member?
Last I heard, Zdenek was a part owner, so yes. I just don't really follow them...their stuff doesn't make it over to Canada/US and it's sometimes hard to stay current on the Czech scene if you don't speak Czech. So yah...familiar, but don't really know what they're up to.
Hello, I ordered a Gnarwhal 2 from the b-grade site but I recieved a puffin 2. It is gold and doesn't have any b-grade stamps on it but I do not want it, I wanted the Gnarwhal 2. Anyway I could fix this?
What is a 'tiny response wall' and how does it affect play?
It's where there is no wall on the same level as the response, reducing friction. I think the YoYoFactory Catch 22 was the first to use it. It's pretty much standard all over at this point.
I have a Supernova. I'm interested in getting a CLYW top and wondering which one to get.
Best advice we can give you is to try and find someone who has the current models and try them out. We don't design our return tops to play like anything else. If you want something full-sized, with a tiny response wall, that's really stable, get a Bonfire. But it's not going to play like anyone else's return tops.
