I have some cash to blow and I saw the proton video and looked into it. Does anyone have it and if so what are your opinions? I was also wondering what throw it was a remake of or if it was a totally new yoyo.

It appears to be YYF’s interpretation of a Positron. It’s not a copy or bootleg, it is a unique product, however it just does have similarities in regards to size and weight and shape to the Positron.

I didn’t get a chance to play one. It’s about the only YYF I have any interest in at the moment but it’s low on the priority list. YYF makes a lot of good stuff. I’ve unfortunately had experiences with a lot of their stuff lately that just didn’t seem to connect with me. I’m hoping the Positron might be one that does connect with me.
