The problem with it is that you can’t do today’s top tricks with it. Nore can you do most of today’s 1a or 2a tricks with it. Seems like a waste to me. Maybe 10 years ago but not today.
I wouldn’t use it for extremely advanced play. I mean I’d use it just walking abround in a mall or something. Sometimes I just don’t feel like binding. i just want a casual throw.
I bought one and I was very disappointed. The response is starburst and it falls apart if you want to make it unresponsive. I was using it at lunch and it fell apart, the pieces scattered, and I hit my friend in the face. I had to sand the starburst on both sides and put credit card shims behind the o-rings to make it even the least bit playable. It takes some minor modding to make this fun, IMO.
