> [@HollowHead4k](#): > > Oh greatttt lol more throws to consider. Dang its so difficult to choose a yoyo because you can’t try them first or anything, on top of having to wait a few days for shipping. I’ll consider it, thanks guys! > > EDIT:Based on the pictures on YYE, that Equilateral looks HUGGEEE! How big is it really? Does it actually do well with tech tricks trying to get it through holes and stuff? Also, that pulse fires’ gap looks a little phat also… Well, if you had more feed back I would have let you tried the Equil out. XD don’t mine people try in out my throws for sale. ---

> [@That-one-kid](#): > > I wouldn’t be ashamed. XD shutter is a nice throw. It jut gets too much hype. Um, for 70 I’d say get the equilateral. Great throw. It was at 110 and I think on sale for 60 or 80. Honestly, Inspire is one of my favorit throws ever. Super fast, super great performance and it just plays so darn well the Inspire is good i have one as well but, it the yoyo accidentally hits the ground (or in my case a stupid kid at school does walk the dog on concrete) it can get some really bad vibe. ---

Lol! My heads about to explode with all these different choices and options. Also, I’m not ashamed of loving a certain yoyo too much, I’m ashamed of loving the shutter. If it was a different yoyo, like a Benchmark, I would have no problem loving it to bits. Just \*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\* it, I’m going with some kind of Benchmark, most likely the H. Thanks everybody for helping me, and pitching in!! ---

I love the Shutter as well. It is my first true pro yoyo and I’ve gone a long way with it, learning my first full string trick such as The Matrix to learning my first super cool and odd trick like Eli Hops. My Benchmark W is coming in the mail tomorrow. Whatever one you choose, it will surely be awesome because One Drop is quality! ---

The shutter is dangerously good, and that’s not a good thing. Tell me how that Benchmark compares with the Shutter please! ;D ---

Stickman (a user on here) owns 42 Chiefs, and nobody judges him for it… au contrair, I think we’re all rather envious. 😛 Oh golly, 42? :o Does he collect them, or just love them?

Would really like to hear more (or try one) before i can say get that than one drop. Would love to try a 5 minute speed test of each. XD ---

This has to be one of the most entertaining things I have ever read. You too should make a story or something together 😛 And please tell me why you prefer the Roar over a Benchmark? Thanks! ---

> [@HollowHead4k](#): > > This has to be one of the most entertaining things I have ever read. You too should make a story or something together 😛 And please tell me why you prefer the Roar over a Benchmark? Thanks! well first one is i like solid yoyos the 2014 benchmark V to me is on the lighter side of yoyos that i own. (thinking about changing that when i buy some discs for it) Plus the shape of the Roar is very comfortable in your hands because of how the the shape is and how its almost organic like. Plus the ano of it is something i like much more due to it being like a happy middle between a hard coat and bead blast. Plus the bearing is a desheiled 10 ball flat bearing which, IMO is much easier to maintain. Plus i think the yoyo is smoother than my one drop due to the fact that i find it hard to find the sweet spot with SE yoyos. Not to mention the laser engraving is one of the best ones i have seen. ---
