Made in USA

Whatever do you mean?

It is subjective and I admit Iā€™m giving you my opinion. I didnā€™t say I had the definitive answer.

Wishful thinking but like @LeftyThrower24 I wish TaW and post a trick was this jumpin.

Thank you for the clarification! Would you mind explaining what you mean by axial rim weight? Iā€™m not sure i understand the term.

Same here bro that bearing can rot in there for all I care, axle knot? Guess Iā€™m buying a new yoyo

This is the best day Iā€™ve ever had on this forum. Thank you all for the entertainment on this lovely Friday

Its a nice tool that is a clear improvement over the simple post style, but IMO it doesnā€™t do much to alleviate pressure on the bearing post.

Along the line of the axle far from the center. Older yoyos used to have thumb grind lips and big overhangs of weight which axial rim weight. These days you donā€™t see that as much.

I donā€™t think so.

No hate btw, I donā€™t mean to contribute to a dogpile or anything :pray::skull_and_crossbones:

Right here

whats my contradiction?

all the monometal yoyos in the picture she shared feature exactly thatā€¦

The one from Nova? Not what I see.

ā€œWideā€ is most certainly a subjective term. Beautiful, fast, comfortable, difficult, good, and bad are all relative and subjective terms. Thatā€™s why everyone on this thread has their own opinion of what they consider to be wide. There might be some agreement between parties, sure, but that doesnā€™t make it objective. The only way to discuss width in objective terms is to use the actual numbers.

To use Davidā€™s point, the iYoyo Spire is 60mm wide. If it were a 59mm diameter 1A yoyo most would consider that wide. But since itā€™s a 75mm 4A yoyo, I guarantee you that I donā€™t consider it wide when Iā€™m trying to catch it.

surprised this has become such an iterative topic, and especially if thereā€™s country vs. country involvedā€¦. literal people on the same or similar machines make these things. whatā€™s better is what you prefer, or like.

Being ā€œwideā€ is different from being ā€œwide considering its diameterā€. Idk why goalposts are constantly being moved.

43mm is objectively narrower than 46mm. Regardless of the diameter.

If there is a 50mm x 50mm yoyo and a 100mm x 60mm yoyo, sure the 50mm x 50mm yoyo is gonna look wide considering its diameter but the 100mm x 60mm yoyo is still going to be objectively wider, and thus more fit for landing difficult hook tricks or zoning tricks that benefit from an objectively wider catch zone.
