Oh ya and my friend traded it within 3 days of getting it no 2 days!!!

My friend recently got a superstar and recently traded for an aqua 08 888 now the one fatal flaw to the superstar is that it is way to big for tricks like white buddha, ladder escape, pacman, plan D, and many other seemingly impossible to do tricks that you need to pop the yo-yo through small loops and holes but with the superstar chances are you are going to have an increasingly hard time leaning all these trick when the time comes. I have tried my friend’s superstar and the beadblasting is great, but the size is not…

L3ardarine5,I was talking to him in chat when he made that trade.

Well, I think that Ando made a lot of complicated tricks at worlds and he managed pretty well. And André seem to manage those tricks with his DM which is about the same size. So the size shouldn’t be a big problem.

Well Andre and John Ando are pros and have probably been practicing those tricks on different yoyos to get them all down. Plus have you noticed that during Ando’s freestyle that he does a lot of tricks that you don’t have to put the yoyo through tiny holes and such.

I dont know… Its tough… The Superstart looks like a great choice, but I realy like the rims of the G5. Its real tough… And the color choices are a little better with the G5. (But thats not a big issue, the Red superstar is pretty sweet) How are they with thumb/finger grinds? And then the SS is bead blasted but the G5 has those nice rims which must count for sumthing with grinds.

     Any comments?

The Superstar can thumb grind, and The G5 should be able to if you remove the Z-Stacks.

Really it all comes down if you want wide or slim. If you like wide, then Superstar. If you like slim, then G5.
