Great question, Brad. I sent the surveys out yesterday morning, but only received the production photo today. So that's the main reason I used the renders. I also don't have individual pics of each color handy and don't expect any more photos until after Ching Ming is finished.
That being said, you can go in and change your color selections if you see something in the shop photo that you'd prefer. There's no additional fees to switch yo-yos.
You probably should have had this photo in the survey, any reason you went with rendered photos. The rendered ones dont show the true colors very well.
Got the survey today. The designs were great, and the Black addition was a good touch. It looked a little bland for my taste though. Instead of a solid color, adding silver or gold colored plate would have been a nice touch. Anything would have worked really. Black goes with everything. I went with the Blue in the end, and added a pin for good measure. Now the wait begins...
Hey Jared, Kickstarter takes 14 days after the campaign to process pledges. Once that's done, I'll send the surveys out. So it looks like surveys will go out March 5th.
Hello. I was wondering if the bolt 2 with the responsive bearing would be available in stores once released. I made the pledge and tried to save enough on time but unfortunately cannot afford to get it at the moment (broke college kid with expensive diabetic medications). My meds needed to be refilled much earlier than anticipated. Thanks.
Awesome. It would be nice to add a stretch goal though. The Executive added a fancy case at $10,000. Considering this is a bit larger, a holster or pouch would be nice.
Use this space to cheer the creator along, and talk to your fellow backers.
Have a question?

By the way, if you have any photos from the factory that you could post that'd be great.

I agree with Jared, full black is a bit bland. Gold plate on a black body will be very classy looking.

Hey Chris, no need to be worried. The yo-yos are still in production. They started a few weeks ago.
Chris on April 1
Still no survey, should I be concerned?

So, when are the surveys going out, or did I miss it?

Hey Jensen, the thinner bearing is available on a few different webstores, like this "half spec" bearing on YYE https://shop.yoyoexpert.com/collections/yo-yo-bearings/products/yyf-yoyo-bearing…

A denim yoyo pouch would be nice ;-)

Darn it Josh, I thought I had a crystal clear call to action.

I watched the video but I'm unsure of one thing, do I need to buy it?
