So I got a used code 2 off the bst and it instantly felt amazing and familiar. Looking at my old starter throws today, I realized it’s almost an exact metal copy of the sage/onestar. Surprised I just noticed this, but considering it’s a what I learned all my basics on, it makes sense that the code 2 feels so awesome and familiar. Does anyone else have these two yoyos? If so have you noticed this as well?

Let’s see

| | OneStar | Code 2 |

| diameter | 55.3mm | 56mm |
| width | 43.5mm | 44mm |
| weight | 62.2g | 66.8g |

Pretty darn close modulo weight, so I’d say this is an accurate observation!

Pick up a YYF Rockstar, 7075 or 6061 they both are pretty close. They’re literally a metal Protostar, which is the shape the One Star and Sage are based off of.

I guess my google fu isn’t strong enough because all my search results show the Rockstar isn’t sold anymore.

Sure, and that takes you to [yoyoexpert.com](http://yoyoexpert.com)’s webstore. But the Rockstar appears nowhere in that store. And if you put “rockstar” into yoyoexpert’s search bar, you get nothing (except a mention in the ad copy for some axles).

I think your google is broken because that’s not the website that shows first for me :joy:
