This is actually good

So a student of mine walked into class today with this yoyo. It looks awful, but actually plays quite well for responsive tricks! Lol. It was $3 at a dime store checkout.

If I think this is good, one of those fancy new metal responsives would probably be something I really like!

Did you mean to say “responsive”?

Ah crap… Yes. That’s what I meant.

I’m constantly mixing that up!

I’ve seen a friend with one of those, reverse starburst is meh…

I should mention that the materials it’s made from are awful. Lol. The body is made from some cheap painted steel and the rims a soft plastic.
The axle is fastened in by nuts on the hubs as you can see. The bearing seems fine, it looks to be the same dimensions as a slim size C.

The worst part if it are the cheap spacers that are on the inside, they are made from very poor plastic and crack very easily with tightening.

I have 3 laying in a box. Fun yoyos to mess with. Modify them a bit and they were pretty decent
