Comparisons/Conclution
I compare this to the Raptor the spin time is about the same. The colors the Echo dosen’t have as much varity as the Raptor does. The shape is a little different the Raptor is smooth. The Echo has 2 humps and little riges after the humps( mostly for the grinds). And if you take out the sidecaps they both can thumb grind desently. I reccomand this yo-yo to advanced players i thank Turtleyo for giving me this yoyo! remember critisize

??? Where is it

AXIDENTLY PRESSED SAVE LOL

The Echo isn’t over sized it is full sized. Over sized would be something like the Crucial Jirorian. Then I would put Full Sized as both a pro and a con because some people like it and some people don’t.

ok thanks

I myself prefer an undersized throw.

Eh

While the Echo isn’t oversized, it feels like it’s a lot wider than it really is. I think this has to do with the catch zone and how it has a wider mouth. The Echo’s on the list of favorites in my collection. I have the Triple Crown edition Duncan sent me when my TC Raptor stripped out on me on my request, to just swap it with the Echo as I really wanted one (Little did I know, they also sent me a replacement Raptor).

Having a short axle should be a pro in my opinion. It gets rid of more centered weight.
