2 Sick YoYos and the Gambit are a story of what makes this hobby great. Community member Joey Serrano started the 2 Sick YoYos brand as a response to the positive feedback he received from the prototype that has become the Gambit. Serrano has played many different brands and has even been a sponsored player. Not content to play other peoples designs he decided to finance and make a yo-yo that fits his preferences perfectly. Stories like this are why I like this hobby, with a small amount of capital and some basic design knowledge you can create your own design. Now the question needs to be asked, is this a design that should just stay a one off or is it fit for prime time?
SPECIAL NOTE:
Two Gambits were sent for review, one made with 6061 alloy and the other made with 7075 alloy. I will compare both.
There were a couple of other reviews earlier when the first run came out. I picked up a 7075 version in that first run and thoroughly enjoy it to this day. It provides a really sweet relaxed feel. I’m not as big on the 6061 version, because it doesn’t have as much of this laid back vibe, although I’m sure for other people this is better. I’m a darn big fan of this throw.
