The Wide Load by Dif-e-Yo was originally released in Late 2002/Early 2003 as collector model, of which fifty-five pieces were produced. Each Wide Load came with three sets of rubber weight rings (two black thick ones, and two sets of thin rings in red and black), five sets of interchangeable pogs (three sets of paper pogs in yellow, orange, and flourescent, two clear lexan pogs, and two black anodized and laser-engraved aluminum pogs), a display stand, and a combination tool for adding/removing the weight rings and pogs. With the weight rings and pogs, the user can adjust the Wide Load's weight setting up to 72 grams, for his or her own preferences. It also comes with Friction Disc response, and a string-centering KonKave bearing. Also, eleven 24k gold-plated Limited edition Wide Loads were produced, and each one came in a mahogany box with a 24k gold-plated laser-engraved insert on the lid.

A retail version was produced later on, which only came with one set of thick weight rings, along with flush-mounted Dif Pad response.
