Hi everyone, I’ve been trying out a bunch of G2 throws and thought I would ask everyone opinions of what I should try next. I’m thinking about looking for an albatross but wanted to get opinions first.
G2 throws I like:
Nessie
Tishee
Elite
Elite 18
Throws I wasn’t a fan of:
Oc
Ghost
Arbiter
Triton
Warthog
Banshee ss
Ti hawk
Covenant
Campaign

What was it about the Warthog that disappointed you?
I got an al7 warthog and I just thought it played too heavy.

Out of curiosity, what is its measured weight?
OG Pelican may be fun for ya. Can’t comment on the newer one.

albatross is my favorite of the g2 lineup next to the hawk. respawn is good if you like responsive.

If you like lightweight throws, the OG Elite is a strong contender.

Albatross is one of the throws I want to try. I wasn’t a fan of the ti hawk so I’m not sure if I would like the normal hawk.

My 6061 Aluminum Hawks play better than the TiHawk IMO. It just so much smoother, and the swirl doesn’t hurt its aesthetic either.

I guess there’s a lot of variability in the titanium releases. My TiHawk feels like a performance beast. It is extremely smooth and fast and stable, very much like my RRT Boa.

Is there a lesson to be learned by that perhaps?
Dimensions and an understanding of weight distribution tell the true story.
Oh and marketing. #hype

What are a good examples of quad and Tri metals?
Death Robot MG would be a good Tri Metal in my opinion but it’s mostly just a solid magnesium throw
I was mostly kidding, but there is at least one trimetal, the Ahay Index.
[Album] AHAY Index

10 years after I started learning the first proper yo-yo trick (trapeze), today I am honoured to present to you, my signature throw from AHAY - Index.
Titanium outer rim
Stainless Steel inner rim (Gold plated)
7075 Aluminium Alloy with multiple-coloured anodizing
Fine bead-blasting surface

I believe @yoyodoc was asking about this one, I had one in my collection. It was black.
