> [@xledruidx](#): > > and the 888 which was waaaay too floaty. Really? You found the 888 floaty? Are you COMPLETELY sure it was floaty? I think most people consider the 888 to be a very solid throw… ---

Hey btw, on your poll, you can choose two choices. I’d say chief or summit, then I would choose for my preferences. I wouldn’t say the arctic circle is for you… Irs made for fast 3D play that Zach does. I liked the summit, a little slow. ---

Arctic Circle is made for Zach Gormley. It’s his signature throw that he uses in competition and videos and performances and practices. You see my point? It’s designed to fit his preferences and play style (fast, tech, 3d). If your play style is similar to Zach’s, go for it. People love that yoyo. Summit is a collab between two amazing companies, One Drop and CLYW. It’s smooth, floaty with the stock Ultra Lights, which brings me to the next thing: Side Effects. You can change the weight to fit your preferences, decide how it best plays for you. SE’s are a huge plus IMO. You also can’t really strip it the yoyo with SE’s. I like the Summit a lot. I’ve never tried the AC, but lots of people I’ve talked to love theirs. Hope you find something you like :). ---

Are you looking for a heavy, full sized? Or any specific shape? If anything, I would consider a Spin Dynamics Flow. There’s nothing fancy about it. No side effects, nor Hub-Stacks, just a good 'ol, long spin, Heavy metal, Throw. P.S. It is not floaty, even though the name seems like it is, it is good for slacks, suicides, and string tricks. P.P.S. I would get a summit any day. The arctic circle just isn’t my shape, but that’s my preference. If you want the Side Effects, get the summit. If you like the feel of a Arctic Circle, then get it! ---

I’ve never played a Summit, but I really enjoy my Arctic Circle. It has a nice shape and is pretty fast, even though I don’t play too fast. It’s also pretty stable. I have heard great things about the Summit, though. It also has side effects, so you can customize it to how you want. ---

Based on your preference, summit.
