There’s an old joke - um… two elderly women are at a Catskill mountain resort, and one of 'em says, “Boy, the food at this place is really terrible.” The other one says, “Yeah, I know; and such small portions.”

There’s way too many companies and yoyos on the market right now

There are a few gems in terms of companies and yoyos that don’t get nearly enough attention because of the sea of average or redundant yoyos and companies in the market that surround them

TL;DR

What we need right now is for all these tiny companies to work towards creating new players, instead of just capitalizing on a market that someone else created for them. Anyone can make yoyos, what we need are companies to make players.

I know @unklesteve is so epic, I like reading all his posts. Except the one where he called me smelly, I didn’t care so much for that one! :nose:

I’ve been having this same thought while trying to weed through newer stuff and companies that didn’t exist last time I was around.

I’ve had to decide just to focus on companies that I know have consistently delivered quality stuff over a long period of time otherwise I’d be overwhelmed by the amount of choices I have. That and refusing to consider products that cannot possibly be as much better than other yo-yos as their price is higher. I don’t care if your costs are higher because you make smaller runs or whatever, I’m going with the product that can justify its price.

Don’t get me wrong the average yoyo today is cheaper, smoother, and better than almost any yoyo on the market 6-7 years ago.

What would’ve costed $90 7 years ago now costs $45. There’s a reason your beloved genesis is $45 now and still gets little to no attention. It’s not because the quality went down with the price, if anything the quality even went up.

And many yoyos costing $90 now are better than ANYTHING that was out back then.

When I said average or redundant I meant in today’s market. But they are still miles better than most yoyos on the market back then

Duncan didn’t invent 5A :wink:

You’re going to like the new CoreCo yoyo if you like regens :grin:

If you’re expecting a really bad yoyo, you’re going to be disappointed. YYF has them for $10 right now during their B Grade Sale, I think YYE may have gotten them as well.

You bet! Nice to see you’re still around as well, along with the other community members that are still active. I went to NER recently and it was awesome seeing Andre, Eric Koloski, and Daniel Dietz again, as they were part of my (relatively) local scene when I was more involved.

I saw that you have your own yo-yo model now too, congrats! Are you still working on Moebius stuff?

Well it does say Unpopular Yoyo Opinions…

I like dominoes pizza best
I don’t see anything wrong with unskilled yoyoers also giving reviews, after all a review is just one persons opinoin.
I don’t see anything wrong with the little guy making yoyo’s in there shed and selling them if there good.

All joking aside…I agree.
Try a brooklyn style crust, extra sauce, double cheese and double pepperoni! Or regular cheese, double pepperoni and cheddar cheese.
That or a brooklyn style crust, extra alfredo sauce, double chicken and philly steak.
Can get these for $8 with carryout!

I just made myself hungry! grrr it’s too early for dinner! lol

Just Double Pepperoni is good for me.
Oh, and i also like cake which is not an unpopular opinion, but i thought i’d just throw it in the mix. It may count as a double negative though.
