the title says all, I’m getting restless waiting for my loop 720’s to arrive ---

I don’t want to feed your hype but I sold my loop 1080’s and it was a horrible mistake. I dearly miss those and I finally understand looping now so I want them back so bad. I might just join you and grab the 2020 because I can’t leave well enough alone. ---

I think a good chunk of my hype is that 2A feels really undiscovered due to the lack of tutorials ---

My advice on 2a is try to force yourself to learn on your offhand first. For me it was way easier to take a trick over to my dominant hand after the ol’ spaghetti arm learned it first vs the other way around. ---

If you like tutorials [Fist Salud](https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCtpcwvhIwjFWxuDYW02cXoQ) has around 64 for 2A. Here is number 1 and 64 with Shu.

What colors are your 720s? Do you have any looping experience or are those your first loopers? ---

Both of them are the recon colorway, i have a little through the use of an old coke yoyo that i slapped some short string onto, so they are my first set of loopers but not my first exposure to looping ---

Cool i have one in recon too but I broke it. I’m now waiting for an orange 720 then I can practice 2A too 😄 ---

I accidentally overtightened it in an attempt to get better response. Very stupid from me. ---

Anyway if your loopers play funny just clean the bearing (super easy, shield removal not required) and get fresh string. ---

@Espressoe do you plan to use thick lube? I’ve made the experience that the 720s already play super responsive. Shu Takada says he runs his bearings dry. I use a super tiny amount of thin lube. ---

Did you get your 720s? I’m loving mine. And I use thick lube on them now. The yoyos of many good 2A players were super responsive, on one I even struggled to throw a sleeper haha. ---

Got a pair of IYoyo Sunrises coming soon. Excited to try looping for real. Did a few loops on my YYF Confusion, and it’s so satisfying. Super hyped! When I was a kid, I pretty much thought 2a was the only style, so it’ll be cool to finally try it, lol. ---

well way back in the 80-90s 2a was pretty much the only style cause string trick yoyos weren’t as mainstream at the time [Next page](https://forums.yoyoexpert.com/t/im-waiting-for-2a-yoyos-to-arrive-lets-talk-about-2a-to-get-over-my-undying-hype/345127.md?page=2)
