Speaking of Bob Rule, Here is a great quote from Bob from www.yoyomuseum.com regarding the advancements in yo-yos that were his favorite to see [over his lifetime].
“Probably the advancement I see the most is the Butterfly invented by Wayne Lunberg. I called it a ‘bicycle with training wheels’ but had to accept it as it helped the players advance in skill so fast.”
10 years prior to the Stinger was the Original Dragonfly by Festival and endorsed by Bob Rule. It weights in at 41grams and is a lot lighter than the Flambeau Duncan Butterflys from the same time period. However being closer in weight to the Pro Spin Stinger, it’s weight distribution makes it feel a little heavier in play. This particular one is mint, so it still plays fresh and crisp with no oxidization on the axle for its age. Set up with some cheap bulk poly and I’m enjoying some 0A this Friday morning.
