One Drop Deepest State Yo-Yo - 6061 Aluminum Semi-Responsive YoYo

from onedrop

We knew we wanted to continue the “State” series of semi-responsive yo-yos and had various ideas in the works but no firm decisions had been made until we were approached by Deep State Superfan, Jeff Atwood (better known as @codinghorror on the forums).

In terms of the design, when started talking to Jeff and as it turned out the ideas we had for it were similar to what he was thinking and wanting in a modern semi-responsive yo-yo. We both agreed the Deeper State was an improvement on the Deep State with its wider gap and more curvy catch zone. With that as a starting point, we decided to bring back Side Effects, make it wider and even more curvy with a bigger catch zone. We didn’t want to add too much to the width to keep it from becoming something like a Panorama. We wanted it to still be a narrow semi-responsive yo-yo that still felt okay in your pocket but had a larger catch zone to make it easier to play. In honor of Devo, a great band that spoke on related themes, we felt that shipping with Energy Domes was the move.
