How many yo-yos do you take with you on vacation?
I’m leaving on a two week road trip. My biggest concern is how many yo-yos and which ones to take? I feel silly packing a lot but I like diversity when throwing.
I’m thinking at least one bimetal, a couple wood fixies, a couple metal responsive, at least five metal 1a throws. Maybe my off string, and a loop 720. And some cheap plastics for people to try. What am I missing?

In b4 ed says “one”.
Seriously, though, I usually take between 6 and 12 when I go just about anywhere, so I have different things I can play around with and so I have some I can give away/let others play.

When I go on vacation it is for a week or less, so I don’t pack a lot, but I usually bring 2 loopers, a modern responsive, a plastic, and two mono metals.

I have a bag that holds a dozen throws and that’s basically my whole collection. I bring that bag if I’m going anywhere longer than a day or two. I need variety and also spare parts/backups.

On my most recent vacation I took a Butterfly XT and a FH1 to cover both types of throwing, responsive and semi responsive.
But seriously, I’ve got young kids, so I don’t tend to have much free time on vacation. Those two throws covered a lot of ground and I’m not overly worried about them getting lost or broken because they are cheap and available.

I normally only bring one or 2 unresponsives, sometime a responsive…but then I always regret not having giveaways on me

I CAME HERE TO POST THIS. 
hahaha generally 2-3 if i’m going for like a week, although i could get by w 1 most regular years no prob. i’m blessed with liking a lot of yo-yo’s enough to not get sick of em.
if i bring more than a handful, i feel compelled to play them, and i don’t want to pay mental rent on vacation. to me it’s like overpacking a bunch of shoes or redundant jackets.
diversity of tricks > diversity of throws, but to each their own! <3
