What are some of the most satisfying things in yoyo for you personally? I’ll start. (Sorry if a similar thread is floating around somewhere, didn’t see one but didn’t look hard.)
-perfect snappy-sounding binds
-witnessing someone get into the hobby/land a trick or harder trick for the first time
-a yo-yo that’s been tuned near perfection with smoothness
-a bearing right after it’s been cleaned and lubed
-seeing “your package has been delivered” when waiting for a new throw/parts/accessories
I love when I’m rotating through yoyos and realize I’ve been using the same one for way longer than I expected. Especially when it’s a yoyo I generally don’t think about or underestimate
When you message someone on the BST about a throw, you get to chatting, click immediately and next thing you know you got something way better out of the transaction than a yoyo. Being able to talk to someone that knows what you mean when you say “dude, I landed a CLYW Peak for under $300” instead of a muggle that thinks your insane for dropping $300 on a yoyo.
I love the sound of metal with a tight bind. Also, landing a trick you didn’t think you could. Yesterday, I started kwyjibo, getting each pop landed on the strings had me super excited. I actually couldn’t believe it. That trick actually came surprisingly easier than I expected. I can only do it slow but I didn’t expect to get threw it so quick.
