> [@Myk\_Myk](#): > > The buy a bunch of cheaper stuff philosophy doesn’t quite hold water for me. One super special yoyo can be worth more than the equivalent value of a bunch of other yoyos that end up sitting around or traded. Yea dude, I totally agree with this. Ive played some great yoyos in the $50-100 range, but most of them don’t even compare to those that I have in the $200+ range, or even the $120+ tbh. I prefer monometals to bi-metals, so most of my favorite throws are Ti (or wood, but that’s another conversation). That said, I have my limits, and even drunk/tired after work me refused to consider the astronomical prices of the Anglams. I think I tap out at about the $500 mark; anything more just gets a bit ridiculous. ---

Well, look at All the air time Christopher is squeezing out of that $thousand bucks. We. were All ‘floored’ when he spent a grand for a yoyo. Now… he can’t yet show it to us because he is getting ‘floored’. Doh!🙀 ---

I have been thinking about this yo-yo since you shared this. I’m not going to deny the workmanship of the Nostalgia. I keep coming back to this. Is the Nostalgia the yo-yo world’s Spruce Goose? It is a marvel, but how do you tune out the vibe, did he make a stand that allows you to identify the wobble like a bicycle wheel? You are not going to lip grind it, and how would it even feel to grind it with all those tuning points. Just my observation ---

The outer edge is a flat smooth surface, should be easy enough. That’s the best place to test for vibe anyway, just fingernail test in the gap isn’t as reliable. ---
