Zero fear to EDC whatever yoyo that I like throwing at the moment(day, week, month, whatever).
A yoyo is a toy and a tool. No different than a: bike, skateboard, baseball, tennis racket, etc…
You ride your bike on rough roads. Roll your skateboard over a multitude of messed up terrain. Smack your ball with a bat. Throw your baseball into the dirt. Scuff your tennis racket into the court on some low ground saves…
In the process of having fun with your equipment; you put signs of use on your equipment.
If you really like a yoyo but you are afraid to use it outside of your living room; than you are sure missing out on some fun, Ya think?
90 percent of my throw time is over concrete or asphalt. My EDC is a Luftverk Fulvia bi-metal. When I leave the house, it is with me.
You should carry any yoyo you are going to have fun with.
You should careful but not fearful.
…I knew a guy years ago that bought a Brand new 4 wheel drive truck… Fully loaded. That sucker had everything on it but vertical lift. He Never…(Never/ever)took it off road. He made a U turn one day because he didn’t want to drive it through some water puddles. He Always parked it in a garage. He wouldn’t park it at the Mall. He wouldn’t park in any Department store parking lot.
He sold it 3 years later almost to the day he bought it.
I asked him, ‘Why did you sell that beautiful truck’? He said, ‘Just got tired if it. It wasn’t any fun’.
What’s the point? He had something seriously fun. But he was afraid to actually have fun with it. So it poisoned his enthusiasm.
I would have bought that Sucker on a rainy day at a Dealership with a muddy parking lot and put ruts in the road on the way down the street!
That being said; I don’t go Krazy with my yoyos. I don’t grind them on the pavement. I always make sure the string is in good condition. I check my surroundings for enough space to throw with smacking something or somebody. I make sure the yoyo is tight before I power up. I roll it down the string first, before a crank a throw down to make sure it isn’t gonna visit my face unexpectedly.
But you just can’t be afraid to rock n roll, lol.
Your EDC should be an excellent playing yoyo; regardless of value.
If you are on a budget and you spent every spare dollar on one yoyo; so you live in fear of dinging it and ruining its resale value; you bought the wrong yoyo.
Your EDC should be the yoyo you have the most fun with.
