Very nice! Would you say you prefer the yyf loop 720’s or the Sochi loop spinners more ?? Just a bit curious as to what you may think. Thanks again 😁

I haven’t spent enough time with the Loop Spinner to have a clear preference, but they play pretty similarly. I think you should get the ones you prefer the look of.

The only good thing about the loop spinners besides its addicting light weight during looping is the removable caps for more color swap mods.

imagine is like a poor mans jpls loop up

Wish you better luck at Worlds, Contest besides, Japan should be a lot of fun, and the Japanese’s cultural take on YoYo ( ヨーヨー) is different than the North American, and I bet you’ll find out you have a lot of fans. Looking forward to watching the streams Stateside.

Decided to go for just one blitz ball and figure out if I like it (also they didn’t have 2 of the same colour)  
So far I find it very good, I put the small washers to make it a bit less responsive, but I think it needs just a little more of a gap. Any advice?

If you want less responsive, you can try a thinner string if you don’t have more washers handy. You can also clean and relube your bearings with thinner lube.

</div>

If you have different sized washers try one small and one bigger. Also as is you could go with thinner string, also if you try one of each washer you can still adjust the play with string size as @TryCatchThrow has suggested.

If your out of washers you can use smaller bearings shields as washers in a pinch. Might have to put them behind a proper washer but works great as an additional spacer.

I always get lazy with maintenance (what can I say? I have two **very** energetic kids). Freshly restrung and lubed is definitely worth doing.

Ahh maybe that’s why I got so many loopers. I can just swap instead of doing maintenance. Yeah thats my excuse…

It says cracked hubs but I think ne means caps. I would confirm. I don’t believe cracked caps would affect play but YYE has the LED caps in stock if you want to replace them and have the ultimate LED looper.

I spend one day out of good cell service…

At that price I’d try to fill in a crack with epoxy or superglue even if it was structural.
