Getting to know my Apollo a bit better today. Tossed a Throw-Yo Pollen in it, and it’s fire!
I haven’t picked it up in several months because it was not too interesting (at the time). I throw it once this morning…yeah, it’ll be in my pocket for several days!

- Maybe the most special yo-yo related throwing picture I will ever have. This is me on break from recording the audiobook for my book on the philosophy of games and play, yo-yoing in the little alleyway behind the recording studio. I had just read the chapter from my book which is all about yo-yo, which ends with some of my favorite quotes from @edhaponik.
- The YYF Rio had taken the spot of my clear fave plastic yoyo, wresting it away from the Fulvia and the Speedaholic. it just feels really … natural. It plays basically like a happy medium between a shortcut and an ultracut, and while it doesnt have the performance of its metal kin, it has my favorite feel. Just a touch more heft than the ultracut, which makes it perfect for me.
This was the first mfd I ever got. Nice colorway😅
thanks! i like the prime8 quite a bit. good shape, i don’t know the colorway name - i haven’t found it in the database yet. i’m going to post there in a minute. much love bruv!
Rancid Fromage
ah! that was one of my suspects, but i couldn’t confirm. thanks again man!
That looks nice and shiny. I strongly urge you never to let me hold, much less throw, it.
Love it
I’ve dinged the heck out of it before, it polishes up no sweat! See my very first post
This is kind of a funny story, but this is a Northstar championship edition. I ended up getting another because of yoyofactory taking care of me warranty wise. This was vibey one that I retired to being a toddler toy, but my toddler smashed it so hard on the ground that one of the caps popped off. Just because I wanted to see how crazy the vibe got, I threw it and it actually smoothed out the vibe so I popped off the other cap, sharpied the nut and white plastic parts black, and I’ve been really enjoying it.
Current Throwtation: these have been the few that I’m constantly going back to. These are all A tier yo-yos in my opinion. Boosted Rainier, Spotlight Ultra, and Leaf are all A. The Terrarian is super floaty in comparison to these with flat caps. However, if you put Z stacks and @yoyospirit’s RSMs, it’s a super fun gadget, being able to grab the sides of the yoyo in midair. Also, it’s a table top fidget toy.
