Is it just me or are the severe and the supernova the exact same yoyo? They have the same shape size and weight. Whats the difference? The price?

I don’t know what the differences are, but there are the same because they’re both signature yoyos of YYF team member Tyler Severance.

The supernova is a younger brother from severe. The third tweak from the original 09 severe.

The severe comes in 09. There’s a 2010 severe and supernova came in 2011.

They may look the same, but each other plays differently due to the tweaks on each release.
