I appreciate it! But I think I was given a GrailFly or something, itā€™s had the same string for 2 hours 45 minutes of use, and I havenā€™t even broken in the starbursts yet. Haha ---

I learned it on a freehand one first. The weight and shape made it much easier than any other responsive yoyo I tried. Once I got decent on the freehand 1, I started to be able to do it on other responsives. I cannot, however, split the atom on anything but unresponsive šŸ˜… Maybe I should try. Right before I stopped throwing in the 90s, it seemed that was the hardest trick you could possibly learn. I never could figure it out as a kid. Then, when I got back into it as an adult, I blew right passed it, like it never even mattered. I gotta fix that. Iā€™m not sure I could even do it on an unresponsive without a little tutorial refresher :joy: ---

Spilt the atom is the one trick I try out on a fixie to see how long it spins ---

I love it, it plays great. Havenā€™t weighed it yet, but I think itā€™s heavier? I really like the way the glow plastic Duncans feel. ---

Ya scratch that, itā€™s not heavier. Must have been placebo. In fact all of my butterflies weigh between 51-52 grams. ![IMG_7084](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/yoyoexpert1/original/4X/2/d/0/2d02058d2eb367284e4fe99522732f399f382fcc.jpeg) ---

I donā€™t think so, they just look cool! But I feel that all of the clear new mould butterflies are pretty consistent. ---

My brothers XT has the pro z mod spacers. Worked great last I used it! (Completely unrelated, but you can also get Duncan aluminum performance rings from the Skyhawk!) ---

Arenā€™t the Mod Spacers that come with the Pro Z the same as the ones that could be bought separately? I was under the impression thatā€™s the case :thinking: The ones that came separately do work perfectly fine with the Butterfly XT thoughā€¦ ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/yoyoexpert1/original/4X/4/a/7/4a74e5f2384dd1a75bb2945e31b63b7c0d023952.jpeg) ---
