How does Alter play? Seems cool but the shape may be too sharp for me
It’s a faster Kagerou, It is a bit sharp, but still a comfy throw.
How does Mustang ST play?
Plays like wider and modern Mustang ES
Haven’t tried any Mustangs before but seems nice
They are doing restock tomorrow on mavetrick so I highly recommend to get one
they’ve suspended shipping to the US on orders over $100 if that’s a factor
Always fun to post a Current top 5 on 5/5, here is my 2026
Can’t leave my favorite topic hanging even if I don’t own 5 yoyos and haven’t bought one in years
I put too much effort into fancy organics just to accept I like these ones the most. FH One, Polycarb, AL with plastic caps. I gave away my Genesis so I’d buy another one I dig like a Luis Orange or 7075 if it fell in my lap. Only other thing I’d definitely buy is a Higby FH One.
Duncan makes it really tempting with a lot of cool different FH Ones but I am very anti accumulation of things that I only need 1 of these days and I’m holding strong with what I’ve got.
It’s been waaayyy too long since I’ve updated my current top 5 in this thread… some have come & gone, but the Canopy Ti & Klondike have been my top 2 for probably about 2 years now. Besides that, I think these are the best of the best, in no particular order!
Canopy Ti, Klondike (proto), Summit 2, Liminal Autoscopy, Wildify
Polaris
Contrast
Ti Vayder
Rainier
Hypercut
There are some alternates listed too ![]()
Shoutout to the early aught’s Duncan yoyos such as the Mosquito, Throw Monkey, Dragonfly, Profly, etc, which are amazing throws that I wish were still in production. I would have a whole shelf of each of em but that would be expensive and difficult.
Here’s the collection shot (minus a few miscellaneous throws in a bin). You can get a sense of my preferences pretty easy…
#5 Kamuraiju
#4 pFulvia
#3 Rainier
#2 Yoshicuda X
Do I even have to say what my #1 is?
Summit 2 update!
Top 3(unranked)- Peregrine X/Summit 2/Horizon 2
4- DS-61
5- Wilderness 7075
Honorable mentions- Netrunner/Crucible/Council
Officially impossible to pick only 5, all these are insane and swap places constantly. For pure performance I’d still go with H2 or Wilderness
G2 Life
G2 Brass Allegiance
G2 Construct
Markmont Blunderbus Cerakote
One Drop Markmont Classic
Axono
Contra Beta
Rebirth
Wilderness PC
