Hey guys! Ok, I’m gonna get right down to it: I’ve wanted a Cascade for a WHILE (I love wider throws, personally), and it’d be GREAT if you guys who own the Cascade (or not, just give an informed opinion) could tell me a bit about it. Oh, and please tell me if there are common problems found with this throw, or any other drawbacks to it, I want to be informed if I’m gonna spend that much on a yoyo. Anyway, thanks a lot guys!
Ok, so pros:
DEAD SMOOTH
able to go as fast or slow as you want
Nice float
Stable
Amazing arm, palm, and finger grinds
Side effect enabled
Amazingly comfortable shape
Cons:
As you start to throw it, spin may feel a little lacking, but it is just a break in and get used to process.
No thumb grind lip.
So yeah, it is a pretty well rounded throw. I love mine!
It’s really smooth, like melted butter smooth, even smoother than my chief. It plays really nice and floaty but it also has some weight on the string. No IRG though. And the wide bell shape makes it really easy to land those kwijibos or whips or spirits or whatever. You can’t go wrong with any OneDrop (or clyw ;D) just get it and be happy. I’m just saying if you are disappointed with you can come over to WA and stuff it down my throat. Actually both Mark and Paul Dang use it for competitions, Dang has a soft flowy style while Mark has a aggressive style. So it shows how versatile it is. Can go really fast, or really slow. It’s just plain old good.
N mart over at yoyoskills (he is somewhere else now, isn’t he?) has a very in depth review.
I do believe that this is one of the best yoyos out there. It blends the classic/ organic shape with a more h kinda thing, which i really dig.
