I don’t like the snow tire pad response system, but I do like pouring flowable in them a lot so I can recess it
Watching freestyles at home after a contest doesn’t do it for me. Freestyles are far more entertaining in person.
Huh can you elaborate on this? Do you mean versus standard slim silicone stickers presumably?
Yep. Even silicone flush with the lip produces great results compared to snow tires. The Wildfire is the first yoyo with snow tires that I haven’t minded the response.
Best response right here. If I ever designed a yoyo that’s what it would be. Snow tire size but siliconed
Yes. Just too wide, really snaggy when they’re new…not gonna compromise on slimmer string either!!
Flowable is tight but I’d rather just buy stickers to save myself the time of pouring/drying the silicone
Anyone ever gotten a cheap plastic yoyo for the purpose of demolishing it through cruel and unusual 4a?
yes, its called
the yoyos people give away sometimes
Opinion here:
I do not trust specs anymore to decide if i like yoyos. I’ve tried yoyos with specs and shapes completely opposite to what i think i like and i’ve always beed surprised. I’ve got yoyos and went “yuck, i won’t like this”, then i throw it and like it.
As a result, i never have a prejudice about any yoyo about how it will play just based on specs/shape.
It is never until i play it that i can decide if i like it or not.
Which yo-yos have you went “yes I will like this!” and … didn’t? I know we have a topic for that, but still curious
Big Fun. Try Biggest piece of garbage. Supposedly they are “tunable” yeah that’s a load of and I know Duncan people, went directly to them with my gripes with no answers, just blank stares…
Big fun is moderately, decent amount of fun. I don’t know if I would go “big” on that one though.
I enjoy the big fun a lot. Yeah there’s some vibe but it’s a monster on the string for a molded plastic
G2 Ghost. It’s fun, and I can play with it, but i was kinda hoping it to be mindblowing but it just wasn’t. It’s still fun tho.
Also, the magicyoyo GHZ (the only looper they have). I’m convinced that yoyo is the worst yoyo in existence and i wish i never had the misfortune to ever buy one.
I felt this way about Duncan’s cheapo Yomega brain knockoff.
I bought one for my four year old at Walmart one time just to see if he could have any fun with it. I feel like it is a legitimate threat to the future of this hobby having it sold had a big chain store like that.
Like, how many kids hounded their parents to buy them one of those, and then they got it, and then it’s just literally the worst yoyo in existence, therefore leading them to never advance in their skill set.
I went full-blown Dylan Kowalski on that bad boy
oh dear
…so how was its “durability”?
is that…
light mode?!?!?!
what someone needs to do is walk into walmart, ask the closest staff,
“hey im looking for a yoyo for my son, but it needs to be able to do this (do magic trick) and this (do spirit bomb) and this (do some horizontal)” and see the store person’s reaction.
Yeah sure I think we have a Duncan Butterfly in stock.
