So I went to Wizards Chest, and… My mom got me these two throws.
Can anyone give me a link or just quote a review on these?

You don’t have to pay for shipping or wait a few days.

Here’s a review of the SR-71:
[http://www.yoyoskills.com/?p=5710](http://www.yoyoskills.com/?p=5710)
I loved the one I played with. Smooth, very comfortable shape, and a nice, full size. I’d like to get one, but I already have a lot of high-walled yo-yos.
I \<3 and support brick and mortar yo-yo stores. They’re rare. 🙂

wizards chest isn’t really a brick and mortar yoyo store… only recently did they start carrying yoyos and even then, they only carry a few YYJs/Duncans… still a fun store and a good place to start learning about different yoyo varieties… although the employees there don’t know practically anything about yoyoing =\
oh whale

So why do you want reviews after you already have them? Just wondering.

You never know what people might say in a review. “The axle is short, be careful not to strip the threads!” or “I think this plays better with a \_\_\_\_\_ bearing” or “It falls apart unless you put Loctite on the axle threads!”. Offhand that kind of stuff comes to mind.
I think it’s fine to ask for reviews/opinions of a yo-yo you already have. I figure it can’t hurt to have more information, unless it prejudices you in some way.
Sorry about answering before the OP could… 🙂
