They’re pretty decent right out of the box. It’s maintenance day for some of my Loops. Cleaning, new strings, re-lubing. I almost feel like I should keep an audit log so I can remember how often I’m doing it. ---

Good idea. Nice add when posting on BST. Shows that you performed that regular maintenance, changing the oil every 3000 Miles. **Show me the Yo-Fax!** 🙂 ---

I’ve found these to be the easiest for me to loop. Possibly that 46 gram weight. They have custom fit 720 guts in them so they play identical and very nicely I might add. ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/yoyoexpert1/original/4X/3/1/4/314acd0ad39c413d5e44a834368b4bfa3c2132a4.jpeg) ---

Yo welcome! I think lengthening it a bit should bring them down or decreasing the gap width if possible. here’s my favorite 2a resource to reference ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/yoyoexpert1/original/4X/d/0/6/d064ceb430e0cdd0c4fbd6feca79eed7c7867e61.jpeg) ---

Welcome. Those D3 have a cool retro look. A little extra length should bring them down some. ---

I’m actually able to get some loops out of my left hand with these Sabers. They are so sloppy and feel so foreign. But now that I got them I can whittle away at making them nicer. My right hand is getting a nice rhythm. Able to get 7-10 or so. ---

I can’t find the post at the moment but Ben from YYF said there would be a new looper shape this year. Edit: found it. The deactivated account made it a little harder. > [@What’s your favorite looping yoyo?](https://forums.yoyoexpert.com/t/what-s-your-favorite-looping-yoyo/371515/21): > > One other aspect we hope will appeal to users of 720 is the availability of Go! as access to low cost alternative parts in the event of catastrophic accidents. Also we have a new shape offering coming this year that will also take all the existing parts ---

I asked Ben about these on Facebook a few months back and he just said “later this year.” I’m super excited for these. I really like the Russel shape for fixies and I really like how 720s play, so these seem right up my alley. ---
