Considering the one drop 1to1 the idea of the design seems really cool.  
anybody thrown one?  
or any suggestions for a great wide throw?  
any feedback would be useful.  
Thanks,

Shutter Wangle is a really good go-to for a wide throw. Marco is a good wide boi bimetal, too.

I’m sure the 1to1 is good but I’m not a huge fan of wide jos so I didn’t grab one.

If you can find one, Tenyoyo Wet Whistle. Light on the string, decently fast, really stable, doubles as a shotglass, with oz markers.

I’m also really enjoying the CLYW Akita.

What’s the threshold for being considered wide? My legendary terrarian has been my go-to throw for a while now, so i’d recommend that if it qualifies

This was the original wide yoyo by X³ I’ve read - The Steamroller.

Guys, Thanks you for all your input. let me modify the question a bit.  
Wide throw with finger spin cup.  
Or possibly wide plastic yoyo as I’ve been hooked on the Antidote and skyva lately.  
Again I really appreciate all the input.
