The funnest and most unique bimetal I have seen yet is theiYoYo FiRROX! It feels so different and is a true afternoon delight!! It could be very successful IF the word ever gets out how cool it is.
I thought I had a specific order of bi-metal ratings.
Then something turned over the whole apple cart!
I got a iyoyo Firrox in the mail. It came with a free Smile upgrade.
This yoyo is so good, I am not even sure how to explain why?
There is just nothing I donāt like about it. The: shape, diameter, width, weight distribution, gap width, stability, smoothness, feel on the string, the slick as snot finish, mirror polished rims, and beauty are exceptional.
It is simply Awesome.
I am no trick machineā¦ But I have messed with a ton of yo-yos in the last 17 years.
I am not easily impressed.
This yoyo design really knocked the dust off my brain. Lol
I got home at 11 a few nights ago and threw the iyoyo until 5:30 in the morning. I woke up at 10 and I was still smilingš³
This Firrox will get people re-evaluating their bi-metal pecking order.
Thank you, yoyodoc! I enjoy your posts, and, to read you absolutely gushing about a product makes me take notice. Now my purchase list looks to be reshuffled.
My Firrox came in today, only got to throw it a couple times but didnāt get to see how it really played. Gonna play with it tonight. Sure itās a pretty throw!
Update: Free bonus smiles and hapiness included, this throw is amazing! Iām gonna have to give it a few days though to let the engraving smooth out some (similar to my Hidra) before I try to fingerspin it again, was just way too grippy. I highly recommend this yoyo though as your next bimetal. Finger grinds for days due to its buttery slick aluminum finish similar to the Hidra. I like to describe this as a āSupercharged Hidraā for those who have tried one out.
Bimetals I currently own but have not ranked them in any particular order:
Firrox
Shift
iYoyo Steel
Space Cowboy
Nightmare
Superstar
Pulsefire
Rave
Knight
YYJ H3x
Karma
Diamondback 2
2Sick Knight
ā¦and Blizzard you will be mine soon to further complicate how Iād even rank these bimetals.
I was notified by a customer about this thread. Reading this first thing in the morning definately made my day! ;D
Thank you so much, guys! <3
Bonus feature - being able to take selfies with the Firrox!
On a more serious tone, this is a beautiful throw.
^ Cool
Also., Iāve talked to Zeāev a bit, and heās a super nice guy, too. He also designed the HiDRA. I want both.
So itās been a week of owning the Firrox and am still absolutely amazed by it. A few things to note:
-I find that this is a yoyo that works better with thicker string as it has a pretty large gap
-Finger Grinds like butter
-Finger spins out of the box were a bit rough but over the course of a few days of being handled and such, the laser engraving seemed to smooth out a bit and seemed to handle fingerspins much better (Iām no finger spin expert)
And now, one of the longest finger grinds Iāve ever done.
