My dad’s friend was watching me YoYo a little bit ago and we got to talking about it, so I handed him my Plasm to try while I practiced sprit bomb on my Y-Factor, he was really enjoying it.

Then he walked the dog

Twice. On pavement.

At least he said he was gonna go look for his yo-yos when he got home, he saw the light haha.

Knew I shoulda brought my B grade lol

Yeah that’s my plan going forward. Didn’t even cross my mind lol, but he went from 82 to 8 in a flick of the wrist, so at least it wasnt for nothing 🤷

Still a lil sad about the scratches tho, hard not to be lol

You might scrape it with some denim or very fine sandpaper to knock down any rough edges.

This stuff might be able to get the scratches out. I have the polisher Adam uses in this video and have smoothed some plastic out impressively with it.

Zz just means metal shields. RS or 2RS means rubber shields. If it doesn’t specify it’s still probably zz.
