The Go Big by YoYoJam, released in 2011, was a signature series offstring yo-yo of Ben Conde.
Conde himself wanted to bring back the rubber rims of the Aquarius, but the reason that it was discontinued because it was difficult to produce. YoYoJam came through in 2011, though, when they introduced the Go Big. It is essentially a Prelude with over-molded rubber rims. It also has a narrow C-bearing, YYJ silicone o-ring response, and Solid Spin Axle technology for extra durability and longevity. It was used by Conde to win the Midwest Regionals, the Triple Crown of Yo-Yo, and place 4th in the 4A Division at Worlds 2011 and 2012.
The Go Big was a rather popular offstring yo-yo with fans of the old Aquarius, especially with Conde having used it for his offstring routines. There was even a pink Breast Cancer Edition, and the proceeds from purchasing this variant were donated to Breast Cancer Research.
