I got my M1 yesterday and it is amazing! Don’t go too hard on me since this is my first review. Stats (Courtesy of YYN): Manufacturer One Drop Yo-Yos Shape Butterfly / Wing Weight (g) 64.60 Width (mm) 35.31 Diameter (mm) 50.04 Gap Width (mm) 4.38 Bearing Size (Inside x Outside x Width) .250 x .500 x .187 Gap Type Fixed Stock Response System .555 One Drop Silicone Sticker Packaging and Looks: It comes in a Brown Cardboard Box. It’s not fancy like the YYF box, but it has a very attractive and rustic feel. It also has 2 stickers which give it some life. I really like the packaging. I got the Blue version. It is very nice looking and the Matte finish feels nice in my hand. I thought it was a little too undersized at first, but I got used to it after a few throws. 9/10 Sleep and Bearings: The best part of this yoyo is the smoothness. After I threw it, I didn’t even know it was sleeping. The sleep time is also great. I have a bad throw, and I’m being gentle with it (since it’s my first metal), and I still get 1:30 without the string twisting trick. 9/10 Response: The M1 comes with the One Drop Silicone Sticker Response System. If I have one problem with the yoyo, it is the response system. It might just be me, but sometimes the yoyo does nothing when I attempt to bind it. It just makes a popping sound and it is really frustrating. For the most part it is good. 6/10 Value: $60 is a crazy price for a yoyo this good! I love this yoyo’s value. It is almost as good as the 888 but it is half the price! 10/10 Bottom Line: This yoyo is REALLY smooth and a really great value. If your looking for your first metal, or a smooth yoyo, get the One Drop M1! ---

Good review. Just out of curiosity, do you have a Lyn Fury? I am wonder what the size difference between the two are. I am also looking at this yo-yo as my first metal, but I would have to go with one half pewter and one half red. I really want an Ohio State Buckeyes themed yo-yo :). When it comes to the response system, does it have a pad on both sides or just one? ---

Yeah, I’ll make mine later. It’ll be more in depth though, and it might have pictures. ---

It only has the pad on one side. You should totally get one! :wink: ---
