Hit yo-yo on concrete!

I just hit my baby on the sidewalk :disappointed_relieved::tired_face:, I raced up to Walgreens and bought a women’s nail file pad, it’s almost like four different sides of sandpaper or actually three different sides with one buffer shiner thing trying to get it out as best as I could I’m so upset

Dude, that is not so bad. You got minimal damage and cleaned it up nicely (good job). I do understand the horror of going through that though! I’m sorry. If you yoyo outside your place a lot, get a $3 yoga mat to put down.

All toys will take a little beating unless they are kept in a safe deposit box.

Yep, it is. He has mentioned it in other threads and when you click on him it says it.

A ding is just a thing. Yours seems very minor and unnoticeable compared to this. Here is my first full metal yoyo. I still throw it till this day. This has had its fair share of love compared to my other throws.

I am so dumb sometimes, I don’t realize I am throwing outside sometimes… if that makes any sense, I’m kinda in my own little world until BAM!! I think I have quite a few I have dinged on the ground, but I really didn’t want this one outside, thank you for telling me it’s not that bad lol, it actually helps, I’ve been telling myself all day it’s ok, I didn’t mess up the rim weight or anything, it’s ok it’s ok haha

Getting over your first dings is a big thing.

It’s nice that you have a loyalty to a yoyo that’s taken a beating. Admirable even!
