Reading all of the different yoyos people enjoy is very telling of what style of yoyoers we all are or at least aim to be lol. I want to love the capsuloid but I haven’t tried it but you have a much more laid-back and chill average throw than I do for instance, where like 8/10 of my yoyos are compy yoyos despite not being able to get the most out of them. Unsurprisingly, seeing a person’s taste in yoyos tells a lot about them as a yoyoer, who woulda thought?

> Yoyofactory Starlight. Wide but still agile and easy to use. Doesnt feel sluggish and is comfortable to catch which is pretty unique for yoyo’s this wide

This has been my experience with offset SS ring bimetals for the most part, they don’t have that same extreme rim weight feeling.

Thats part of why I like the netrunner and the hollow SS design element so much, it has a very similar level of agility in play to offset ring bimetals without really sacrificing stability or power.

Played a lot of stuff this year, but they were the most rewarding to play. Couldn’t set them down for more than a week.

Offset bimetals have a large diameter making them feel chunky. I really like some of them but especially the 60mm ones feel slow and floaty and clumpsy.

Sorry I meant like the SS rings are offset from the rim, not offset brand

It is one of the best yoyos I’ve ever tried. Plays exactly like heavier and more powerful TP st. Tempest, spins forever, has that typical TP heaviness but feels very nice. I very much like its shape and dimensions. I can say it is like more modern and wider Mustang ES
