It’s one of the most unique designs YoYoFactory has ever created, pushing the boundaries of what a yo-yo can be. Despite its wild shape, [BALLS](https://yoyoexpert.com/products/balls-yo-yo-by-yoyofactory?variant=46662763544766) is a full aluminum unresponsive model capable of performing real string tricks. Its extremely wide profile offers a massive presence on the string, while the rounded edges create a completely different interaction with mounts and redirects.

The catchzone of the yoyo GENERALLY should be a lot smaller that the actual width, right? ---

Do the foam-covered balls have less performance than the smooth balls due to air-friction? I want to have the best-performing balls I can possibly have. ---

NGL i think foamy balls cause more friction than the smooth balls. In conclusion: I prefer smooth balls over fuzzy balls. ---

I would say that if you get at least seven hours of sleep per night… And you abide by a healthy diet and take the proper supplements, that original equipment balls probably perform the best. That being said, there’s certainly nothing wrong with having an extra set of dependable balls. ---

Hmm. DT and Unprld Capsule doesn’t seem to cut as much away from the sphere. This has a bit of a V away from the hub before the fuzz starts so there’s less string friction.
