I have played the Barracuda at worlds and I liked it. I agree it is a very good throw. As you said CLYW has more high-end throws that is what I was saying. They have more quality products. Sure nobody can beat Duncan with the classics, I am just saying as of now they are.
To everyone saying that Duncan is more popular: of COURSE if you go ask yuggles which yoyo company they know they would say Duncan. I was saying in the yoyo community in present terms, sorry for not specifying, but yes worldwide known is Duncan. It is all a matter of opinion I’m not saying I’m right, I’m just saying what I have been seeing and playing that is all.
I’d like to see your skills. The Duncan Barracuda and Duncan Strix are two great yoyos. Two of my favorite yoyos for sure; along with the Prestige. Nothing about them feels “cheap”.
No. Lexus is a sub-brand of Toyota. VW may own Porsche, though they are production-wise two independent companies. You won’t see a Porsce with the engine from a Golf or the chassis of a Lupo. (I’m pretty sure the Cayenne isn’t a Touareg with different body-panels)
However, if you by a Lexus you’ll probably by a car with a chassis and drivetrain of a Toyota. With exceptions, as with everything.
That guy could really benefit from studded rally tires.
That STi is a daily driver! Couldn’t we all benefit from snow-specific studded tires… problem is we need summer and dry winter tires as well, :P. Generally people don’t own more than a setup for summer and winter for a Subaru driven on the street. Jut gets too expensive. Keeping 2.5k+ in tires sitting around for one car, haha. 'Cause if you’ve got snow tires, why not dirt tires as well?
Unless you stud your own tires of course, but I don’t know anyone who has down that.
Oh, i didn’t mean “regular” studded winter-tires. I meant proper rally-spec studded ones. Like these http://www.cartinafinland.fi/en/imagebank/image/66/66211/winter+tires+66211.jpg
Driving with those on ice gives you pretty much the same grip as driving with normal tires on a firm dirtroad. If that made any sense. These are, as you might guessed, not road-legal.
Which are very commonvon the winter roads in Norway. Unstudded winter-tires just doesn’t cut it all the time, really.
And oh
Turning Point - Porsche - Excellent (If you don’t count in the Cayenne which is rubbish), but to some a bit boring compared to other brands in the same segment.
I knew which tires you were referring to, so my general sentiment stands; those tires cost far too much to be of any real benefit to him. The entire point of that little session was obviously to lose traction anyhow. Snow and dirt are really the only scenarios you can slide a Subaru around like that without a LOT of room or being on a track.
Summer+winter+studded+dirt+four sets of wheels is generally too much for people driving those cars(just thinking about all the different suspension setups involved there hurts my brain, considering all the different widths you would be running from one drive to the next). We get plenty of traction from standard “performance” winter tires. Your Michellin Xi-3, Blizzaks and the like.
By home-studded tires, I don’t mean the studs you can slap on tires, I meant drilling bolts through tires, fastening them with nuts and cutting them off at angles.
