I wouldn’t consider myself good enough to give a super descriptive review but I certainly like it, it was my first bimetal and I’ve gotten a few since than but still throw this and it holds up, I got the galaxy colorway the cups are a bit grippier than the body different finish I guess the so grinds are better than finger spins but still not a problem, super powerful and long spin times not very floaty though

Welcome to the forums @Richard and @EricInfinity!
Good evening everyone from Eastern USA. I recently found one of my old yoyos and started playing with it again and figured why not see how far they’ve progressed by now. I stopped yo-yoing in the late 90s/early 2000s and wow have things progressed. I figured I’d start out with a pair of the more traditional style/ looping yoyos (■■■■■■■■■■ “Match” and “Loop 720”) and got my first unresponsive one (shutter wide angle) as well. I’m more of a fan of the 2A/ looping style yo-yo but since my kids pretty much claimed those already I’ve been trying out the shutter. After getting the basic bind down pretty well I think I’m hooked. The extremely improved sleep times make all the old school basic tricks a walk in the park. I remember spending hours/days on the cats cradle and now I was able to do it a few minutes after getting the binds down after 15+ years of little to no yo-yo practice. I’ll admit I’m still a bigger fan of the 2A style 1A is definitely a close second now. I’m looking forward to learning a lot and from what I’ve read this is definitely a great place to learn

Welcome to the forums! Maybe you should look into getting more pairs of Loop 720s for 2A. It’s a really cool style that doesn’t get as many players due to its difficulty so it’s awesome that you want to learn it. This is definitely a great place to learn, you can start off with the tricks here:

Thank you and I’m definitely planning on getting another set of them. Once the kids lose interest in my current ones it wouldn’t hurt to have extras lying around anyways. I’ll probably add another unresponsive one as well, just have to do some more reading and watch some more videos of which one I would want. The shutter wide angle has been great so far but some variety won’t hurt

Hey all, I’m Chris. Just your classic millennial who had a yomega fireball glued to my finger in middle school, dropped the hobby and game back about a year ago. Mostly a 1A player, interested in building my collection. Much love

Here’s my mains right now. @BadWolfeCo strings on all since I discovered them. Chopstick Gorilla still my favorite throw, but the ditch is super fun and challenging.
On the hunt for a full size metal organic shape, with a finger spinning dimple. Seems to be difficult to find!

Nice set of throws right there man 
have you seen the recent YYF edgeless yet ?? Its a nice organic throw with a very cool finger spin cup. It’s actually available here on YYE in case your curious.

Hey thanks! I have seen the edgeless, very close to what I’m looking for but the plastic caps scare me. If I were to venture into caps, I’d have to decide between this and the duncan freehand with caps.

Older versions of the edgeless can be found with metal fingerspin hubs, but I’m not so sure of the difference with the current plastic cap ones due to not having played either
A bit of everything, have bought from Yoyoexpert , Aus Yoyo Store, direct from Duncan, direct from Magic yoyo and from AliExpress. What about yourself?
I really like it, I dont have anything properly premium to compare it to but it is probably the best quality feel of any of my throws and is so stable and smooth, expect the Z01 Focus to arrive this week and I will do some sort of comparison.

Try not to mention other yoyo stores as this forum is still run by yoyoexpert, and we need to respect that.
