Most used throw

Hey yall, so I got a couple of really nice yoyos but on a day to day basis theres a yoyo that I just gravitate towards and use almost everyday. Im curious to know, out of your collections, what is your yoyo that gets the absolute most use?

Mine is the canopy AL

Just curious why do you like the vtwo so much? I have one and its really good but nothing special imo

Obs: Personal opinion

Well… its strongest feature for me is its EXTREME STABLENESS. This isn’t a common characteristic of onedrop, as I hardly find any that are as competitively skilled as the Vtwo (I’ve owned more than 20 models).

Considering its shape, I find it a very comfortable yo-yo for long-term play. The gap is an excellent size. Combined with 11-12 thread hybrid or polyester strings, when you hit the “sweet spot” of the return pads, it becomes simply divine.

If extreme stability is not a common feature of OneDrop throws; why do you have 20 different models from them? Do you dig unstable throws? Do you think that number 21 will finally be the ‘one’ to tick all the boxes?

Compared to other onedrop yoyos; comparing them to a 100% competitive scenario, VTWO fits in the middle of these.

I love how they perform in play. They are totally out of the common box - they have their own “timing” and evolution. While lots of trademarks is focusing on performance, rim weight, DNA cups, ultra-megawide ones, triple-quadri-material, 100% wallless, made for ultra-high-speed combos etc etc etc I feel they focus on making something really good, fun, and that makes sense and has a story~soul reason why that model exists. The anodizing, color versions and mixes, variety of shapes, the old-new innovation that has always been the side effects and the ability to customize your yo-yo, makes it.

Although I mentioned “20”… the only onedrop I haven’t had yet are Project OG and Citizen.
Why have I already owned almost all of them? Because I want to, and because I like them? :sweat_smile:

I’m not looking~buy a yoyo based on its “EXTREME STABLENESS” as described. I’m looking for originality and brand cohesion, as mentioned above.

Yeah one drop knows their consumer base well (a lot of collectors and people who enjoy smooth throws that feel fun and comfortable) They make throws that they think their fans will like. They aren’t competition focused and thats what I love about them

Top Deck! It senses my shortcomings and then compensates. Every time I get a new yoyo and then throw my Top Deck, I think, “why do I even bother buying new yoyos ?”

I guess lack of performance and being “smooth” is all that matters to the fanboyz.

I think it is a false choice to say that high performance throws cannot have unique personalities. There re plenty of great yo-yo’s out there that have personality and great performance. They just come from manufacturers who care about both.

Over the past 2 weeks I’ve really been using my Pop! Yoyos Salamander a lot. Almost exclusively since I’ve received it. I’m so happy with how this yoyo turned out and I’m excited to eventually sell it.

Overall, I think my most used yoyo is probably either the C3 Hydrogen Crash or Galaxy Diver 7075v2. Both of them are absolutely phenomenal yoyos.

I hadn’t bought a yoyo since 2013 until a couple weeks ago when a spark in interest was rekindled. This OD M1 was my first metal yoyo and I have always kept it on me or in my car for the last 15 years
