Delicious chemicals, that’s why!
Is that the fluff string? How did you stretch it so thin o_o

It is! It’s my favorite type of string for responsives! I usually stretch it by putting the loop on a knob of a drawer or around a deadbolt and then lean back with my entire weight to stretch it. I’ve never had one break on me.. yet. I also like to add some tension/torsion before stretching them. It just keeps them tighter for longer. If the Fluff is fully stretched then it should lose a lot of the bounce.
Holy cow you’re a genius thank you! I might not lean back with my entire weight though—I don’t think it could withstand 80kg of force?? ![]()
Instead of stretching it, I prefer it bouncy. Will there be a good chance of a yoyo backfiring and hitting me? Yes. Is the bounce worth it? Also yes. Yo-yo go boing.
You’d be surprised
Zipline strings are made with magic I’m telling you
225 lb me reading this pro tip:

When/if I pre stretch it’s always the dumbest way by legit pulling with my fingies till they hurt
Is. . . Is that not the way to pre-stretch? ![]()

I’m worried about the yoyo!!!
After stretching the string like 6 times I must say it’s still SO bouncy that it frequently returns just from hitting the end of the string and bouncing straight back ![]()
Yeah, this is pretty accurate! ![]()
Got mine this afternoon and I’ve had a chance to play with it a little bit.
first impressions are the finish is beautiful, both looks and feel, it seems to play best with the included Fluff string, I didn’t like the string that came on it, I tried some zs air which felt pretty good, the fluff is like thicker zs air and has a bit more bounce. The organic shape is throwing me off a bit, it’s not as stable with stalls compared to a standard butterfly, Plasm or the Weekender (my go too throws the past 6 months or so). The grease bucket is nice and responsive but still has a lot of power compared to smaller bearing throws. For me it feels quite a bit different than what I’m used to playing but I think it I dial my throwing power down a bit I’ll find the sweet spot to make this thing sing. I’m also not a great player so it might just be more yoyo then I can handle ![]()
Were they going to do another release of the edITION on yye? I’m absolutely in love with it. It’s everything I ever wanted in a yoyo, since my first freehand.
I would really like to get another one to give to my father for Christmas. It would be the most epic gift ever. I’ll be honest, I’m selfish and I don’t want to give mine up.
It’s my understanding that the trash polka colorway is a YYE special.
Just re-read the email, it says that the yye will drop at a later date. Thank you Brother Ed! ![]()
Any indication when the YYE release will be?
Only folks that know that are @AndreBoulay and @YoYoExpertEric
Can you update this post with an additional photo of those yo-yos shown vertically next to each other so we can get an idea of width, gap, etc?
