Wait… Yoyo emote???
YOYO EMOTE!!!
My one concern about throwing a slimmer yoyo (than I typically do) is that I will get used to the smaller string spread necessary for things like the 1.5 mount, and then when I go back to throwing a wider yoyo, it’ll constantly get snagged on both strands.
I’d go for a plastic yoyo, actually. It changes the performance in terms of stability/spin time while still allowing you a wide choice of shapes and sizes. They’re also very inexpensive comparatively. The grabbiness of the surface will also guide you towards being more accurate with your hands/arms (so you don’t brush against it). Once you learn a trick on your easiest-to-learn-with yoyo, try it on a plastic like the Big Fun or Wedge and it’ll highlight the areas of the trick you might be stumbling on and scraping by.
Tsk tsk you didn’t read all new topics
lol. The yoyo emote thread was really fun to read.
This is an interesting question, what’s the most neutral monometal, the platonic ideal of a neutral monometal? I like your choice of Dang2, but I am wondering if there is anything else more “on the nose”. Maybe a Shutter?
I have no idea what “very neutral” is meant to convey if a Gauntlet is an example!
With those yo-yos listed, I would think that the Mantis falls under that category as well.
And maybe the Joyride or Metal Replay? The Dogma?
Neutral, I think of a center weighted, lighter (65g or less), not super stable yo-yo. Your Parlay, IMO, would fit that pretty close.
