The slim jim looks way too heavy at 64g.

The Slim Jim is on the heavier side, but it’s capable of stalls, kickflips, etc.  
I think I prefer it as a slimline semi-responsive rather than 0A/modern responsive, but it can do both, and it’s a fun throw. I have no regrets snagging one.

I’ve had the weekender, alley cat 650, deep state, deeper state, respawn, respawn lite, moonshine, thing v2, pop art, and a few others. My favorite for 0a is a fixed axle 🤣. For me the best is the thing v2. When I’m playing responsive bearings it’s usually shorter 1a combos with stalls and flips added in between as opposed to pure 0a.

The idea was to take one my wooden models called the Bloodcell and turn it into a metal responsive yoyo. Rather than using an A sized bearing, we decided to use a smaller MR85 bearing that is only 8mm in diameter, the same as the wooden axle in the original wooden Bloodc…

A new metal 0a yoyo that I’m working on with Glen.

I second this. I’m always surprised at how little you hear about it.

Have an opportunity to buy a Weekender. I fear it will be too close to my Day Tripper to really be worth it. Can anyone shed some light on the play differences between the two? Should I get the Weekender anyway? Its in a super dope colorway.

I have duplicates of both and am really happy owning both models.  
In my not-super-experienced 0A opinion, the Weekender feels a little “floatier” than the DayTripper. Not in any excessive or super significant way. If you only had the DayTripper, I don’t think you’d miss out on anything.  
But I do think it feels different enough to justify both if you really want both.

I’d really like to hear other people’s opinions on the differences, though.

Thanks for responding with your thoughts. You give me confidence that buying the Weekender will likely be a good decision lol. Hopefully some more people weigh in as well.

I haven’t even really touched my unresponsive yoyos since I got the DT and I want to make sure I’m not ripping through those response pads too quick by only using one yoyo lol.

Ended up grabbing a Deep State, and this thing is super fun. With a greased up bearing its super reliably and predictably responsive. Hitting shoot the moon and lunar landings cleaner than I ever have. Really glad I ended up snagging this throw. Just finished setting up a party and took the opportunity to throw for a few minutes.
