They ordered it, not sure when they will release it.

I don’t know if I should get this. The price is very tempting, but I’m not really a fan of small yoyos. They tend to be rather unstable.

Spin Dynamics Monkey Fist. 🙂 SPYY Supra…
They will probably never be as fully stable as a real stable full-sized yoyo, but it’s all about diminishing returns and how much is enough. If you can’t get your tricks done with an 888, which is a relatively unstable undersized (compared to today’s stability monsters), I have concerns about your skills.
Not YOU, Philip… I have absolutely no doubts about your skills, which are awesome. :wink: Just the royal “you”. :wink:
Particularly when a yoyo is meant to be portable and primarily fun… the stability level is probably just fine.

Oh man, I’m going to have to get one of these. They look so good!

I actually have a monkey fist prototype, so I know what that is like. I had forgotten about that. It’s sort of beat up, so it isn’t in tip-top shape, though.
Still, undersized yoyos do tend to be somewhat unstable. The thing is, the pocketability of a yoyo isn’t a factor for me because I don’t carry yoyos in my pocket much, so the yoyo has to be good without using size as an excuse. That said, I will definitely try it if I get the chance, and I just may pick one up. $26 is a great price for a metal. The diameter isn’t too small either.

I, like Phillip, am not normally a fan of undersized yoyos, nor do I carry one with me in my day to day travels. I am a bit of a sucker for stability and I like the feel of a bigger, heavier throw, so I’ve yet to find a truly undersized model that has won me over.
That being said, for $25 it’s a no-brainer. There have been some mid-ish-size yoyos that have earned their way into my affections (YYR Blink, Onedrop Yelets), so I’m definately willing to give it a chance. Who knows, this could be the one to change my mind… :wink:

I also do not value so-called “portability”. I walk out of the house with whatever. On the other hand, I enjoy undersized just for the fun of it. Spin Dynamics Smooth Move and YYF 888 are favourites. The Supra was a favourite for a while, too. In the “more or less mid-sized” category (even though they claim it’s undersized, I disagree) is the Werrd Minute, which is a fantastic yoyo.
So at 52mm, I could be convinced to try one of these as an impulse buy. :wink:
