What yoyo do you have in your collection that has lasted the longest there and you still play occasionally?

For me it’s my recrev octave. 2 and a half years I believe… I recently sold a yoyo that was in my collection for 3 years.

I’ve had my 07 888 since 07. A few others too but that may be the oldest. Also some random plastics.

Haha. It’s a no-name looper (late 70’s early 80’s) with clear caps. I pulled them then installed pics of my sons. I used to joke to people that I had the most mixed up kids.

I’ve got my original yoyo still, a Hummingbird Smothers Brothers YoYo Man yoyo. I play it every once and awhile still. Also my Bee’s and Tornado’s from the mid 90’s.
