Hey guys need some help. I have some money left for Christmas and want to buy a G2 and was wondering what you would recommend.

Right now I’m looking at a Triton, Quake and AL7 Quake. Also considering an AL7 Triton if I can find one. Don’t worry about my preferences just tell me which one you would recommend.

Best bet for this be answered by multiple people is to make it a thread in the need recommendation section.

I can’t give a comparison of any of these throws since the Quake is the only one I’ve thrown but I can tell you that I absolutely love the Quake. There’s a reason the first run sold out so quickly at pretty much every store that had them. Not sure if there will be a “best of 2013” without yoyoskills but I strongly suspect the Quake would be a contender if not a winner for yoyo of the year. I’ll be honest and say the Draupnir blows the Quake away but YYR hasn’t even gotten a mention in their “best of…” before so gooooo Quake.

I know you said ignore preferences and I can’t fully endorse the AL 7 Quake since I haven’t thrown it but if you like lighter throws I’d snap up a Quake. If you like heavier throws then I have a hard time believing that the AL 7 Quake isn’t a beast as well. I haven’t pulled the trigger on one yet but it’s definitely a possibility in the near future.

I’ve thrown everything except for an AL7 Albatross, and the Triton is my favorite for a go-to throw. I have both versions, and although I’ll never get rid of either, I throw the 6061 version most, and I never get tired of it. Also, the Nessie is a very underrated throw. Anyone who hasn’t considered it as an option should seriously rethink. For the Nessie I prefer the AL7 but you can’t go wrong with either.

I love my Triton. Its very flowy and present on the string. Good for slow play. But you can push it fast forrr sureee.

I just got my Quake today and Id also have to say it is a great throw. Very fast and nimble. I got the unicorn blood colorway. Very elegant. So is the seismic though. So smooth too, thats my favorite part about g2s. My quake can grind for 8 seconds.

I can can give you my prognosis on the AL7 Quake xmas day.  
Or you could just ask Studio. He shoulda got his already.

I absolutely recommend getting a Quake, it’s by far my favorite throw since the day that I got it.
