Hey guys, Stopped throwing around 2012, just recently got back into throwing after digging through my closet and finding my yoyos. What new yoyos/tricks/news should I know? One big thing I noticed was the crazy amounts of steel/aluminum hybrids. I owned a Helix for a little while, but that yoyo wasn’t anything impressive. I recently obtained one of these, the Sengoku Nobunaga, and it is one of the best throws I have ever used. I’ve used/owned a lot of high-end yoyos, and the nobunaga is probably the longest spinning, smoothest, and most stable throw I have ever used. Color me impressed. What else should I know? ---

“budget” yoyos are phenomenal. Titanium yoyos are available at around 300 a piece. Zach gormley won worlds this year with his new signature the borealis that came out a week ago. Clyw is still top dollar but still awesome and are manufacturing some of their new yoyos from China including a bimetal. Uhhh… Yye had a mystery box sale that is currently still available this very minute. That’s all I have at the moment. ---

Yoyorecreation created their own sub-brand to provide affordable quality throws, I’ve heard they were pretty neat. They’re basically recycling older designs and ideas with an ugly logo on it. ---

I own a Butcher and a Acro from rebellion. They both are really good throws. They are really durable too :wink: I have a bunch of dings on both, and they still play glass smooth! Piotrek and Kengo did a really great job on these!
