Looking for opinions for anyone who has played with both the OD Par Avion and the Kraken. I like a laid back style, comfortable in the hand, chill throw. These two seem like they might fit the bill.

I only have the Kraken and highly recommend it.

If you’re looking for something cheaper that scratches a similar itch, the Big Fun plays like a budget Kraken. It is similarly laid back and oversized, but a bit lighter.

I prefer the Par Avion. Its more stable and longer spinning and just a little bit more fun. And i really like the large 4.7mm gap on the PA for some thicc string and layers.  
In all honesty, these are both a lot of fun and unique throws.

Do you have a “yoyo oriental” or am I underestimating the size of these? 🙂

They’re both pretty chill in the grand scheme of things. I love the Kraken but I might lean Par Avion since it has a little extra float.
