Brain type yoyos like the Yomega Brain and the Duncan Reflex.
Plastic sleeve yoyos (or transaxle, as Yomega likes to call them) like the Yomega Fireball or the YYF Spinstar.
Maybe a little paragraph about response systems? It doesnāt have to be anything extensive, just mentioning āSilicone pads, Starburst, axle friction in wood fixies, etcā as this topic is so varied in widely-commercial available yoyos that i think is worth mentioning.
Okay Iām gonna get my computer hooked back up tonight. Iāll get the new stuff added in and gonna organize it all a little better. Iāve done this all from my phone so far and itās getting pretty long now lol. Though to start that was on purpose because I figured your average viewer will look at it on their phones.
Are you trying to make a comprehensive guide? Or just the basics?
Iām afraid if too much is added itās just going to intimidate/bore those who itās intended for.
I like the idea of keeping it pretty simple without bogging it down with too many things that someone truly just starting out donāt need to know about right away.
Just my thoughts.
Also, I really like the idea of having this or something similar printed out and shipped with starter sets. Itās something as a new player I wouldāve really have enjoyed!
Iām trying to find a good middle ground where I hopefully answer MOST of the questions a new player may have, without it getting so long that people donāt bother with it. Itās also not really meant to be a step-by-step guide to someoneās first yoyo - more geared towards the person who has maybe been throwing a few weeks, and is starting to research into some of the main differences in things they see talked about by everyone else.
So, I guess the short answer would be Iām trying to make it comprehensively simple? Or maybe simply comprehensive?
Nice work! Only suggestion is to include mention of plastic/metal hybrids since you break down bimetal. For whatever reason, I feel like I see some newer players gravitate towards the Iceberg as they start collecting/upgrading so that might be useful info.
At the bottom of the post you can āpinā it, which puts it at the top of its category in your view, but only until you view it again. If you want to be able to easily come back to it you can also save bookmarks on the forum
wow,
I think iāve got it.
So if i press the pinned box at the bottom of the thread, then when i log in again and go to forums its at the top of the list ? I think iām missing something here. Iāll press pinned and see what happens.
It will just be at the top of the āGeneral Yoyoā category, and only until you look at it, and then it unpins. The pins actually doesnāt seem overly useful for a topic you want to revisit. Bookmarking would be your best bet.
Just tried it, and got it.
Not sure if its actually a good idea as iāll forget to pin it, hence its sort of a redundent feature. Or am i just missing something, i usually do
The bookmark is definitely top. Iāll be using that in future unless i forget of cause.
