Legend Wing and Duncan Butterfly are both perfect for my abilities. Something a little smoother or hand-made helps (so far) only when I’m looping or trying to count STM repeats. ![IMG_9902](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/yoyoexpert1/original/4X/b/d/b/bdbc88d3a3ccf9bb6131d07f07cd6b27f23fd454.jpeg) ---

Hey! Received my first (not last!) good wooden fixed 😃 TMBR Carlson! Love the Spectra ply , but don’t think it’s the best material for me!?! A little bit to light and soft! Not forgiving when you learn 😅 ![IMG_3965](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/yoyoexpert1/original/4X/2/3/1/231f063382d4624baa133890b2e552c3b6093180.jpeg) ![IMG_3966](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/yoyoexpert1/original/4X/3/2/d/32d691a80e4d4beef1c8766a7be955d00328d292.jpeg) Hope to find something else to show you soon! ---

It’s been a hot minute since I threw a Butterfly; I’ve been sticking to the Survivalist for 5A May due to its durability. I think that for me, I like responsive 5A, but I don’t love fixie 5A. I have enough going on when throwing 5A that I don’t need the limitation or low spin time complicating things. So I guess you could say I’m excited for the end of 5A May, especially on fixed axle Friday and so I can get back to more 2A most of the time. My collection of wood fixies is eagerly awaiting their return to the throwtation. ---

I also felt this way about fixie 5A, but I shifted thinking about quick tricks and stalls, like I usually do with fixies. A quick pinwheel into a stall, a quick GT you can flip around, etc. ---
