Mine finally arrived at my local post office early this morning, so hopefully it’ll be here today.
Sry Steve, my bad. I just sent you an email about it…
I just saw this..
I have acquired the majority of throws in the PIF box. Thanks for letting me try these out, it helped me figure out how I wanted to set up my own throws. I’d like to go ahead and move it on to whoever wants it next!
I’ll take it!
Dm me your address!
I got them today! I will report back after I have some time to throw each one.
@AudreySickburn heads up

try my modded Deep State. ![]()
I had a lot of fun trying these out for the past few weeks.
These were all very responsive. Usually I have to keep adding lube to the bearing to get consistent response like this. I did have some trouble figuring out what tricks work well, but that speaks to my skill level more than anything, I think. It was a bit difficult for me to do 1A style tricks with multiple string wraps without losing spin. They stalled well for 0A-style tricks, especially those with narrow gaps (unsurprisingly). After attempting the beginner trick ladder at Florida States with the Workhorse (which has played less responsive than these, with the stock Throw-Yo Elixir), I was interested to see if these could handle Split the Atom, Mach 5, and Matrix. I had good luck with Split the Atom, but the other two resulted a few minor finger bruises. (Similar to Workhorse for me, still working on those last two responsive.)
Here is a comparison photo with a couple modern responsives I own (ZGRT El Mijo SL: left, YYBC Workhorse: right).
The Bumble Bee ended up being one of my favorites, maybe surprisingly. I think I never really felt that heft on a slim responsive yoyo before. It did well with stalls and just is very satisfying to throw.
I preferred the Deep State for 0A, but the Deeper State did better with the trick ladder tricks. I tried a Throw-yo Serum on the Deep State because the string on it was a bit short for my taste. It looked great (red and yellow) and was super bouncy, but it kind of ruined the stalls. I’ll take that off, but leave it in the box for anyone who wants to try.
The Snack stalls surprisingly well. Here’s a bonus picture of the Snack next to the Minitee and Cenote for anyone shopping for smaller yo-yos.
The two extras were also fun to try out. (Thanks @MinerJ) The 7Yo T2 could be an inexpensive pocket yo-yo. It feels very heavy on the string. The honeycomb is neat and stalls super well. I even got a kickflip on it. My only complaint is that the edges feel a little sharp.
Thanks to @Slestak75 for this PIF!
OK, who is next?
Rules:
I will send the package on to the next person to post, ”I’ll take it,” here, in this this thread. DM’s don’t count, it needs to be in thread to keep everything fair (Continguous 48 states only, please). If you do not have at least a year on the forum you will need to provide some sort of feedback that verifies your trustworthiness. Upon approval you will get these great throws to use and enjoy, completely free, for four weeks (give or take a few days)
HOWEVER! By accepting this offer, you also accept the responsibility to copy and paste this post at the end of your four week period, as well as paying the shipping fees in sending it on to the next person.
Anyone once?
