Sort of mini-review. I got one of the gummy weight pros not too long ago and have been very glad I gave them a second try.
I had tried some of the old gummy weights and very strongly disliked them. I hated how they felt, how they moved, and they felt annoying to play in so many ways (bottom too flat, material way too grippy, bead hole too small.) The new pros on the other hand I feel like are very solid. All of my complaints with the older versions have been addressed.
I’m pretty picky with counterweights but I like the new gummy weight pros. I wanted to give them a second chance after seeing them working with Jake for so long now. Also I wanted to give them some support since trying to give 5A more publicity is always a worthy cause. Very glad I did. If you tried a gummy weight and hated it in the past, definitely consider giving a pro a shot if you think they look cool.
@da5id is an awesome person with a great team. I had messaged him asking how to fix the side effects on my Bathysphere that I had gotten off of a BST, the axle was free from both ends
He politely insisted that I send it to him and they will fix it. He sent everything back very quickly and I just got around to putting it back together and playing it. It’s perfect.
This yoyo will always have a memory of kindness tied to it and has earned the right of unsellable thanks to David and One Drop
Boosted Ranier. Everything I hoped it would be. If I only bought one, it would be the boosted even though the difference is slight. The return just seems snappier.
It is! I really love the OG, and this one does seem more aggressive. I also love the 7075 pyramatte finish. So smooth and clean. OD’s purple is an amazing color, too! Definitely going to be in constant rotation.
Sounds good!
