I’m saving up for either a Peak or Wooly Marmot. I know the Peak plays nice, but has anybody tried a Wooly Marmot? If so, do you think it plays better than the Peak, or not? Why? I’ll probably get a Peak, but I’m just curious what people think. Thanx. ---

If you like full-sized, get a Peak. If you like undersized, get a Wooly Marmot. ---

> [@Kim-Lan](#): > > If you like full-sized, get a Peak. If you like undersized, get a Wooly Marmot. I know that, I just hadn’t tried a marmot. I generally like a bigger yoyo, which is why I favor the Peak, I was just seeing if anybody had tried a marmot. ---

If you like larger yoyo’s get a Peak. The marmot was designed to be an undersized peak. They will play extremely similarly. ---

I have played the Wooley Marmot and the Peak and the Wooley Marmot plays a lot better than it. but it is just my opinion. ---

Thanks for posting. About how much smaller is the Marmot than the Peak? Bigger than an AXIOM? Around the size of a Hitman? ---

I have a peak and I love it. on getting a marmot. Think about this way, you can go to a Nation and get the peak right now, but you will have to wait on a marmot. I say get the peak! ---

Yeah, I’d love an Alex Peak, but I’m like $90 short. :-[ 😢 I tried Alex Berenguel’s and I think the anno feels alot better than the other Peaks. ---

Thanks for posting. About how much smaller is the Marmot than the Peak? Bigger than an AXIOM? Around the size of a Hitman? He wasn’t the first, I was. Its smaller, just compare the specs from this. [http://www.cariboublog.com/?p=651#comments](http://www.cariboublog.com/?p=651#comments) I really prefer the Wooly Marmot, but they are both AMAZING players. You will only have to wait about a week for the Wooly Marmot. Another thing, Wooly Marmots are about 3 grams lighter than a Peak. So if you want something fast and agile, get a Wooly Marmot. If you want something full sized and you don’t want to wait a week, get an Alex Bearing-Gull Peak. ---

I’d love to get an Alex Peak. Especially because I know Alex Berenguel pretty well; I see him at the yoyo club I go to every other Saturday. And I didn’t mean he was the first person to try a Marmot, I meant he was the first person to reply on this thread that had tried one. And how can you be the first person to have played one… Chris and/or Jensen Kimmit tried the first ones likely. 🙂 [Next page](https://forums.yoyoexpert.com/t/clyw-peak-or-wooly-marmot/3883.md?page=2)
