> [@Bcmaddog](#): > > Mainly fast, but can go slow, nice easy wide catch zone, but comfortable and not to wide, D E A D smooth, super SUPER great finger spins even though its raw. With good hands regular grinds are amazing. Great for horizontal, awesome cup design. Only improvement might be the bearing seat. Its tiny tiny bit tighter than I would want it. sounds awesome, and duly noted! can’t wait to try one eventually 🙂 ---

Ya know, I gotta admit, I did not think you guys would actually be able to go through with this! The Capicorn looks amazing! And I’m sure it plays great! ---

A tighter bearing seat is much more beneficial for a yoyo than a lose one. That’s a good thing to ensure a smoother yoyo. As long as is able to come out with a bearing tool the seat is fine. ---

A Capricorn has landed here. What a fun yo-yo! I think you achieved your goal, something everyone can enjoy. It is a well rounded throw, something that will appeal to many. I can tell that it’s still growing on me with each throw. You guys know my preferences, so I’d like a bit more stability and weight. It’s stable though, and not too light. You certainly achieved your goal, because despite that, I think you guys hit a sweet spot that everyone will be comfortable with. Congratulations on a great first throw. A look at my Tropic Spins Capricorn.

Yaay!! Finally, I got mine today. Indeed it’s a Capricorn bliss. Tropic Spins, thanks for making the final adjustments based on our opinions. We all appreciate your guys’ hard work. I was shocked to see how wide it is though. I was thinking this can’t be 43mm. I have a Basilisk and Turning Point claims it’s 42.8mm. I think Capricorn’s width must be like 43.8mm or so.

Last they told me they wanted it wider and said 46 mm. So I believe that’s what it is. ---

I guess the 55mm diameter makes up for its width and works well for 3A. Thank god its diameter isn’t like 57mm. Such a great throw!! ---
