Our deepest gratitude to the team for making the trip to Eugene to do the Summit 2. This week was amazing.

03/06/2026

In August 2025, Steve emailed One Drop with the idea of revisiting the Summit for Caribou’s 20th Anniversary. The original yoyo and documentary were a snapshot of a special moment in time; let’s create another.

85 emails later, Steve and the gang rolled into Eugene with no plan other than “let’s make a yoyo in a few days with some friends”. Monday morning over coffee we threw out our assumptions and started with “responsive or unresponsive?” We had no specific ideas and decided to just let the moment guide us. Shawn’s CAD wizardry quickly turned our excited conversation into drawings and beyond anyone’s expectations we had a yoyo in our hands that night. The machines ran overnight and on Tuesday we had enough parts to feel confident and accomplished. Wednesday morning the amazing folks at BT Anodizing invited us all to their shop to witness the full process, both a rare treat and an incredibly satisfying couple of hours. We retreated back to the shop with finished parts and had everything assembled (and only ONE bad yoyo!) in time for dinner.

Thursday we welcomed fans and friends into the One Drop machine shop for an afternoon of food and fun and gave a handful of folks a chance to get their hands on the Summit 2: First Draft. The engraving art on the Side Effects is from an early sketch by Jason Week, who did the box and engraving art for both Summits. We liked the roughness and immediacy of it, and it fit the speed at which the yoyo came to life.

Tomorrow at .yoyo we fully release the Summit 2: First Draft. This only differs from final production in the Side Effect art and body color, neither of which will be produced again for this model. We made just over 80 yoyos from concept to finished product in three days and it was a hell of a good time. We hope you enjoy playing these as much as we enjoyed creating them together.
