After what I got this past weekend, I don’t think I’ll ever buy another plastic/ metal yoyo again. I love the look of them very much. BUT after playing a DM2 on Sat, it just felt old and like taking a step backwards in overall performance. Compared to my SPYYS and STs and Hspins, I think it was just a nostalgic desire.

I wholly agree that the Raptor is hands down the best performing yoyo at and above its price point and the best added value product Duncan has put out in years.
