Any chance I can get on this list?
Yes you can
Thank you!
Just got the PIF in the mail last night. Havenāt got a chance to play with it much but I have really enjoyed it in the few minutes I have had with it.
Iāll post my detailed thoughts and a few photos in a bit
Alright so my 2 weeks with this thing is officially up. Iād love to keep this and keep playing with it but I also want the others on the list to get a chance with it as well. @Splizacular go ahead and pm me your address and Iāll get this send off to you.
Alright, time for my thoughts.
Right off the bat Ive got to say that this is the best undersized Yoyo that I have tried. When I first started playing with it I could tell that I was going like this Yoyo. You guys know, some yo-yos just have that special feeling to them. After playing with it for a few days I kinda thought I would like it better if it had a gram or so more of weight put on the rims, but as time went on I began to appreciate the design as it was. It definitely plays light but itās doesnāt feel like itās lacking power or stability or anything. It definitely preforms well and can hang with most other full sized yo-yos despite its size and weight. And another note, even though this Yoyo is technically undersized, it plays like a full size Yoyo, I didnāt even feel like it was harder to land tricks on like tends to be the case on other small yo-yos the yyf boss for example.
Over all I was really impressed with this yoyo. Motion continues to blow me away with their designs, which for me is hard to do.
Iāll definitely consider picking one of these up if they do a rerun or try to find one on the BST.
Thanks to @JEA86 and motion for this incredible design and organizing this pay it forward!
I hope you all enjoy this a much as I haveš
If you liked this one I would highly recommend looking into a perpetual either for purchase or the pif here on yye
Already on the PIF list.
If I didnāt have a Parallel alreadyā¦ Iād be all over this. Everything you said about the Parallel is so true. Iāve cut my collection down to 20 throws and the Parallel has a permanent spot among them.
Yeah it really is a good Yoyo. Im glad I somebody else thinks like I do. I was afraid of overhyping it lol.
Itās okay to overhype when itās absolutely true
parallel has landed didnt realize it was a d
Itās in fact a d bearing
ok Iām just going to go ahead and say it, Iāve been paying this thing off and on for the last several hours and Iām madly and hopelessly in love admittedly i knew nothing about this one other than it was a different motion. i liked centrifugal, but it wasnāt my favorite. this one thoā¦wow!
the power and speed packed in the little package is incredible. it spins forever. grinds for days. itās unbelievably stable. it feels comfortable on both the throw and catch. i like the undersized feel to it and it never felt like it couldnāt do everything a full size can. also, the pitch of the d is fantastic. i know the vast majority of ppl couldnāt possibly care less what the bearing sounds like but i have to believe at least a couple other ppl read that and nodded knowingly.
my one and only gripe is i sincerely hope there will be more runs of these because theyāre out everywhere of course. i NEEDS it!! i will be playing it daily for the duration that itās in my custody. well done on a phenomenal throw
Iām glad we had similar experiences! @JEA86 we need more!!!
I totally get you on the sound. Some people like them quiet but I like them to sing. I also feel like the smaller diameter of the D bearing increases the distance between the bearing and the rim, and this is where the magic comes in making this smaller diameter yo-yo play just like a full sizeā¦ heck, better than many full sized throws. And it pulls this off at only just over 56 grams!!! Mine will be with me for the duration.
Appreciate the feedback glad some of our yo-yos are making rounds to get folks to try them.
I personally think they are great but ya know I am bias lol
interesting. Iām interested in the physics of it all.
i so feel that! Iām going to go through serious withdrawal in 2 weeks when this thing has to move on. i feel like Iām going to have to go on a bst quest. this thing is just blowing me away on every level. itās one of those that makes me feel like a better player than i am and the feel in my hand on throw and catch is just unmatched
welp as much as it breaks my heart, my two weeks are up. @yoyoknight send me ur info
Awesome canāt wait to try it. Sending DM now.
Update: I am now in possession of the Yoyo. I had no idea what I was getting as I never looked at the specs. So I was surprised when it turned out to be undersized. As soon as I picked it up, I could tell I would like it. I have only thrown it for like 5 minutes, so im not going to give a full review yet.
For transparency, there is a very small nick on the rim, but otherwise itās mint. It had some slight vibe, so I took it apart, and after tuning, I was able to get it down to just a little fingernail vibe. I didnāt even realize it had a D bearing until then. But my first impressions are Iām going to need one.
Iāll throw it for a couple of weeks, then pass it to the next person. Iāll keep everyone updated.
