it’s a good yoyo. i’ve owned probably 7… in the end, i always end up moving them along. as it’s a bit big for my tastes, and not an organic panacea.

$145 for a prototype was a bit high i think too.

I’ve had three and finally found the one I like. I actually prefer the One Drop pyramatte finish to a blasted finish, which I guess is its own unpopular opinion.

Full length yoyo videos aren’t worth it to make anymore unless it’s purely for your own enjoyment.

for many tricks its impossible to know how difficult they are from how they look.  
is follows that awarding multiple clicks to a difficult looking trick will more often than not be biased.

I don’t care what anyone says, if someone is able to use that yoyo to win a world championship it’s a good yoyo.

To a point. Some people have such a high skill level that they are able to pull off amazing things with ANY yoyo - even Dollar Tree yoyos. I’m not referring to the Replay Pro / Gentry. I think there are some folks who could win a local competition with a Dollar Tree yoyo.

Haha you are too kind! But I really appreciate it. I can understand though, the 14 year olds that do nothing but practice all day and look down on those who don’t can be a bit annoying.

Pyramatte finish is my favorite personally . Bead blasts scratch to easy sometimes.

One drops finishes have been nice lately and G2s diamond blast is just phenomenal .

All organics are basically the same and are completely played out… to the point of complete irritation when you see XYZ company bringing out new said “organic” … would love for companies to wear out a new shape.
