So theres always a back and forth argument going on about which company is better and blah blah blah. Now I’m not saying CLYW is better in anyway I just wanted to put my experience out there. When I pick up a YYF shutter and I throw it I go wow this is a great yoyo I could use this in a competition I can do all my best tricks on it this is a great yoyo.
When I pick up my Chief I go wow this yoyo’s great I can do all the tricks I want with it I could compete with it its amazing but there’s also an extra felling of happiness when I pick it up. I don’t know what it is but I think it because CLYW uses Maple syrup in the production of there yoyo’s not just any maple syrup but Canadian maple syrup.
Now I’m not saying CLYW throws are better a YYF throw is as good as a CLYW throw in every way (minus the death grip bearing seats they can be kinda annoying) but play on the string is just as good. I love my yoyo factory throws a lot but theres just something about picking up a CLYW yoyo that makes me feel extra happy.
What are you guy’s thoughts?

I agree, the buttery smooth maple syrup is what makes the yoyos buttery smooth as well. They do a great job!

Well; come to think of it; a few of my CLYW yoyos feel fat and slippery when I throw them: Cliff, Arctic Express, BVM2,.
So Chris much Soak some of them in ‘Canadian Bacon’.
Not sure if I am srs though.

I used to think it was called 28 stories because there were 28 stories that some ancient Chieften once told at a Powwow. Like, “the 28 stories of Chief \_\_\_” lol…
Then I saw the blood and the sky and the clouds. Yup

I seriously believe a factor here is how much the person spends on said yoyo. If the shutter were $160 I’d bet more people would say it’s just as special as a chief. I think it’s more of a placebo affect but that’s just an opinion.
