Finger grinds on a Marco

I am strongly considering a YYF Marco, but I hear that the edges are rather sharp. I do enjoy finger grinds. Is the yoyo too sharp for them to be comfortable?

I don’t think they’re sharp in the way you’re thinking (at least from what it sounds like?) I think people mean it’s profile is very angular being a hard V shape. Paul Kerbel is like the king of finger spins and grinds and this is his signature yoyo, so I assume it’s good for that. However, i have not actually tried one out

Definitely capable of good finger grinds especially if you are proficient with them. There are definitely better throws out there for fingerspins. It doesnt have a lock in feature. You can still pull off long spins though, just doesnt have training wheels.

OK, I ordered a Marco. I’ll let ya’ll know if blood is shed.

Not at all! I Love my Marco and it’s actually my go-to grinding yoyo.

The rims aren’t as sharp as you think imo. They won’t even give you a scratch
