Just wanted to know if I can practice bind with a PGM, because everyone tells me I wont be ablte to use DV888 if I can’t bind that well. So I’m thinking of buying PGM and DV888. Don’t unbox DV888 until I learn to bind well, and unbox it 3-4 weeks after my binding gets better. These are currently the things in my cart.
i would just practice on the dv888 (binding) but then again i dont really know. But i used my Dark Magic 2 too practice binding instead of my old yoyo(my old yoyo sucked!!)
The pgm is a great learner for binding, can even go as far as mastery tricks. I’ve got 2 and I learned everything nearly off one. Don’t like the vibe that comes with it or the stacks, just remove the stacks and use a pitch bolt (forgot the measurements, sure you can find it somewhere through the Search). You could learn binding off a dv888 as well though. Just depends on your budget, bother are great throws in my opinion. Can’t go wrong with either one.
If you really want a DV888, buy it and put thick lube in the bearing so it’s responsive. After you’re better with binds, clean the bearing so it’s unresponsive again.
I think the PGM is a unresponsive yo yo anyways.
Most yoyos are great to learn to bind on these days. Your ability to bind will not differ if you use the dv888 or the pgm. I personally started on a legacy. It takes a bit more winding, but you don’t need to learn to bind on a responsive yoyo. As long as you have the patience for it, you can bind on most yoyos out today.
you totally don’t need both cause with brand new response systems, you can bind on anything.
here’s proof: here is how my freind binds, trapzez, drop the trapeze. somehow he binds like that and it works on his brand new grind machine. same as dv888 no difference and i would save up for another all metal instead of kk, kk is useless unless you’re a bearing changer with 100 extra bearings.
Loop 900 is gonna be expensive, like $20+ I won’t get Grind machine, I’ll buy a YYJ Fiesta instead, that means all I can spend is $18 on a looping yoyo (If i’m dropping the Shinwoo LOOP).
I am still learning how to do a basic inside loop, maybe 2A isn’t my thing. So I would just go with a Shinwoo LOOP. Don’t want to buy something too expensive that I won’t use you know.
If I were you, I’d just get 100 strings, DV888, thin lube, and a spare response set. That’ll be all you need to start up. Don’t spend too much starting out.
