Settle a debate for me.

is it the “one point five”, or the “one and a half”? quesiton applies for mounts, hooks (even 2.5, 3.5, etc).

both are completely fine when referring to the mount, but anybody who says “x and a half hook” over a “x point 5 hook” is 100% a cop

Yeah I usually say “one and a half mount” and “one point five hook”. This is also all in my head as I rarely talk about yoyo out loud. Haha. I think I would just say 1.5 when typing.

One and a half for me, haha. One point five doesn’t make sense for most Europeans, since we use commas instead of dots, so it’s 1,5 😄

One point five, two point five for hooks.
