First Impressions
Okay, so I really don’t like to toss a lot of opinions around until i have had sufficient time to play with a yoyo. But some of you guys asked for first impressions so i am going to try and deliver “without saying too much”. I am going to break this down into 3 categories
(+)Plus- things i really like about this throw
(N)Neutral- things I am not crazy about
(-)Minus- Things i really don’t care for
(+)WEIGHT- I love the weight of this throw, it gives you all the benefits of a heavy throw while still remaining nimble and fast on the string, it really wants to be pushed as hard as you can,
(+)FINISH - This finish on this throw is amazing way beyond just the beautiful colorways. i can say without a doubt this is the best grinding surface i have ever felt (this is part because of MFD amazing ANO process and also because of the BUFF that comes pre-applied)
(+)HORIZONTAL- If there has ever been a throw built around off-axis play the Caesar is it, It was able to tackle horizontal tricks with ease that i have had a lot of trouble executing with any of my other throws
(N)RESPONSE- Out of the box my Caesar was actually quite responsive. There is a few reasons why this is. Firstly the bearing came over lubed which was the main reason for this problem. But also their new string is rather thick, which accompanied by a somewhat small gap did not mix well. But overall this is not a deal breaker for me and can be easily fixed with a small bit of maintenance and or break-in period. But I will say with the gap size and higher walls that i really recommend you use a lightly lubed centering bearing in the Caesar.
(-) I am going to have a hard time explaining this one without visual aid
If you look at the Caesar you notice its walls has a very extreme curvature, Almost coming to a complete U shape, and the bottom is almost completely horizontal. Because of this the Caesar sometimes does not make the most smooth landing onto a taught string. You can feel the string get a little caught up on the inner wall before fixing itself into the gap. But i will say that overall i do not find that this has an extreme affect on playability.
Overall i find the Caesar is an extreme competitor in today market and an big win for MFD. Honestly my other throws have been getting extreme neglect since obtaining one. And i know i had some less than positive things to say about this throw, But I like to stay creditable. If there is something that even bothers me a little bit about a throw i will always be sure to share it with viewers. But the positive outweigh by a long shot. I would never recommend something that i wouldn’t spend the money on myself, and I am positive that as soon as i give this Caesar away i will defiantly be spending the $102 to get one myself " and in the silver-back tiger colorway"
