Thats it for now, broke a YYF Velocity,gave away a MYY Crystal and Duncan Butterfly XT and i have a Magicyoyo Focus in the mail and Freehand Pro laying around somewhere
The dollar yoyo lived a very short life, it broke on the third throw but did manage a rock the cradle before its demise

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

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
