Unpopular Yoyo Opinions

Time already feels like it goes by a lot quicker than it did in HS :sweat_smile:

“Thrower,” to me, sounds like I go into Destiny raids and intentionally Leeroy Jenkins to troll. Or get so tilted in a game that everything just goes downhill.

To me, “yoyoer” is also pretty cringy. It just… doesn’t feel good. It feels like that really unpleasant, tacky gloss finish some cheap yoyos use, except in your mouth.

I’ll use “throw/thrower” because it’s short and my autocorrect picks it up often enough. In speech, however, I’ll say “play yoyo.”

Did you know it’s JUNE?! Last I remember it was March! <— I do this way too often in my 30s lolol

Mint throws are overrated.

Mark my words. My very first throw when I buy a Ti Vayder. Will be a spark.

I’m gonna unbox and first throw, record all that on camera

Or perhaps mint yoyos reflect a level of skill on behalf of the user? Because I don’t own any shelf queens. Not even my Kimmett signed Canvas is allowed to collect dust.

Your a bigger man than me. Took me about 2 hours, and I have a 2nd Grey one…

Absolute mint yoyos offer nothing other than a premium when you get rid of them. Even pros admit to dinging and dropping yoyos. Mint yoyos are ones not used. A couple dings don’t even affect the play. Plus dinging a mint yoyo sucks. Dinging a played with yoyo is just a ‘whatever, redo’.

Curious. You folks that say you want to spark your Vayder… if I told you that there were two models of the Vayder, both identical in look, feel and play, but one was $50 more because you can spark it. The cheaper one doesn’t spark.

Would you pay the additional $50 to buy the one that sparks?

Nope, just more civilized. :wink:

Nah I gotta draw a line there bro. Broke college student can’t afford that r u kiddin me

Well I hope you never find a need for money and have to sell your Vayder. Cause sparked is gonna surely bring you $50 less.

You should see my skateboard! It’s mint too, I’ve had it for a few weeks.

Kidding, of course. It’s not like I would be devastated if my TV did kiss the concrete eventually, but I think it is silly to purposefully damage a very nice brand new yoyo that I spent my hard earned money on.

That just don’t make no sense.

I don’t sell my yoyos, I buy to keep. I spark because it is fun. I also don’t view yoyos as an investment since they are toys to be played with, not some fancy collectors item to be traded. If I want to invest, ill buy stocks like the real affluent.
