Should I get the relplay pro or the wedge?
Wedge, it feels more solid and powerful
They’re both great plastics. Pick whichever one looks cooler to you.
The wedge looks more powerful and stable.
Too many yoyos with only 2 - 10% (or less) difference in designs. I understand the differences can have an impact on the player. I never read the descrip. / specs on the Wedge before your post and now I really want one but I’m just gonna take vitamins and drink a lot of juice and fight the fever. I think it’s harder to just love and play with the yoyos you’ve got than resist the temptation to add to a stockpile. I love my Replay Pro. I have 2 of them.
Personally I prefer the Replay Pro, but they’re both great plastics.
You make a good point, if I had it my way, I would have all the yo-yos. I mean, part of this hobby is collecting, but sometimes the hype is just too much to handle. When I first started this hobby, I made it a point to get one of each main profile so that I could see for myself which shapes I like the best. Now that I know what my favorite shapes are, it’s a lot easier to resist hype of certain models.
I’ve got about 15 yo-yos in my collection right now, and it’s fun picking a different one to carry every day. They all have unique personalities on the string. A few grams, and a change in weight distribution, and material, and profile, and even string/response/bearing can really make a profoundly noticeable difference as far as feel goes. It’s a trip
Practically every yoyo is hyped as what everyone has been waiting for and It’s finally here but then I read reviews from non-pros (as opposed to pros and manufacturers) and get a different vibe (no pun intended). But someone new is getting into yoyoing every day and only has an Imperial and unlike me does not have a box and kitchen counter full of yoyos to pick up so it’s nice they have such a variety to choose from.
I prefer the Replay Pro. But that’s mostly because I’m just not into really wide chunky yoyos.
Get both, a Replay Pro for 5A/3A play and a wedge for your basic 1A play if your feeling like a big baller. I bought 2 replay pro just for 5A. 1st base is a pretty good alternative for either of the two. The Wedge is more a long the high rolling status because of the spin hub but still seems worth it. I think that style hub is perfect for finger spins. The horizon spin hub has me interested but I am just not that into H style yoyos.
I say the wedge
Yeah I do too
I prefer the Replay Pro but you can choose whatever you like.
I agree with some aforementioned points, there’s nothing wrong with chosing one & considering it superior, but I’d say that if your budget suits it, get both. I have both & they each have many differences & advantages & suit a different player. With both you can really determine which one gets the job done. Besides, it’s fun to have a ton of yoyos.
