When I tried one I loved it. Smooth stable z-stacks also, it has a small gap and it is shape thinner than most throws. Z stacks are awesome! What level are you?? Are you good new average, or expert? You also need to bind with it. ---

I thought it was a decent throw when I had it a long time ago. The z stacks are kinda cool but more a gimmick than anything. I preferred mine without stacks, it played faster and lighter. ---

It’s an awesome yo-yo! The only thing I don’t like about it is the small gap, but that’s just my personal preference. ---

Any more than that and you can get slippy, especially with the response groove size in YYFs. Do you mean the catch area? Yeah, sorry I probably should have been more clear. ---
