Looking for slim/pocketable throws

[Lydia]

I recently got my El MiJo SL in and it’s awesome! I love that I can slip it in my pocket and carry it around campus without looking like a massive nerd. I want more throws like this. Hit me with some suggestions. Otherwise, I might just buy another El MiJo. (I want fixed axles or responsives) Thanks!

[DumpsterWonder (She/Her)]

Deep state is elite.

I’ve heard that some people like the 5ive.

5IVE

Still in stock too

[Captrogers (Brandon Rogers)]

Honestly it’s not cheap but my default pocket YoYo is el tio.

My go to pocket throw lately has been the mowl round 1

[Lydia]

I’ve looked into this one before. Is it only sold on Mowl’s website? I don’t really want to pay $20 shipping for a $10 yoyo lol.

[Lydia]

Fingers crossed they do another run of these

[kretzschmar]

Waffle Stomper is great for this

[Lydia]

Very true. It comes with me on every trip!

[Fancy-0 (Cody)]

Shoooot, flex your nerd muscle and drop a full size in that pocket!!

[Hunger4ungeR]

I like the g2 jackal but its unresponsive

A few of my favorite slimline responsives include SW x MK1 Harbinger, Doc Pop PLTPS, Deep State, YYBC Workhorse, SW x MK1 Plasm, and El Mijo SL.

[SlowThrow (Kyle ✌️❤️🪀)]

+1 for Plasm, disappears in the pocket, is perfect, and also doubles as a worry stone

[MinerJ (Jason)]

The Janus also gets an honorable mention simply because it fits in the pocket watch / coin pocket on a pair of jeans, and with spike SEs it doubles as a top.

I recently put out a plastic version of the starfire.

TimCor’s plasTiC StarFire

The all new plasTiC StarFire, our classic StarFire shape re-engineered to accept power rings and to include twist-adjustable gap to go from responsive to unresponsive simply by untwisting the yoyo a quarter to a half of a turn. Specs Weight: apprx 54gms Weight with power rings:apprx 60.5gms Diameter: 57.8 Width: 34.5-35.15 Response: 19mm pads Bearing: flat C-size Material: PET-G plasTiC StarFire [IMG_8210]

deepstate/plasm good yoyos but too thin for me to take everywhere

OD m1 best for performance vs size I think!

maybe m2 is good but it is too ugly for me to buy this yoyo, also larger than m1

@Lydia

(I want fixed axles or responsives)

edit: oops I do not read this nvm what I say

Slim recommendations

I’m being indecisive so help me choose! poll

List of Slimlines?

Hey, Folks - picked up a Sliver sort of on a whim, and I love it. It’s got me looking into more “slimlines”. I’ve seen tons of recommendations out there for Alleycats and Deep States and Gamers, but I don’t often see anyone mentioning others like Slivers and Phidiases. In short, anyone know where I could find a more comprehensive list of slimlines that are out there? I tried looking around a bit and didn’t notice anything, but maybe I just missed it. I’ve seen a few lists for other things like …

Most boomer yoyoer yoyo?

OG peak YYF 888 (only certain years though, some yo-yo people claim they can tell the difference. I’m still skeptical ) Monkeyfinger or RSO, but the earlier the model the more desirable. Most A/RT yo-yos Panorama Diorama Red blood cell Any CLYW or One Drop to some extent, although the boomerness of the models increases exponentially as you go back to in time, especially for CLYW. Anything that costs over $300, as long as it’s not made by Yoyofactory Anything by Luftverk, except m…

[Captrogers (Brandon Rogers)]

I mean @jeduardo has hinted hard that more are to come so I think it’s a good bet.

[Captrogers (Brandon Rogers)]

A cheap alternative that is surprisingly good is the yoyo rec first

[kretzschmar]

As far as fixed axle slim, I have reached out to Ed Davidson and he has made me some awesome thin wood fixies from the specs I provided

Request an exotic wood, slightly concaved, as a common wood may be too light. Highly recommend nickel gap with brake hole response
