Not really any noticeable vibe. Just these fouls in the plating in the IRG rim/lip area. Can’t see them looking at the cups head on, and they make a cool fart noise while you thumb grind.

I’ve had an easier time looping with jojos that’s aren’t double/triple looped around the axle…makes pull starting harder especially when you’re double fisting

I usually rotate my throws pretty regularly. Taking a different one with me to work than I play with at home, and switching both positions up almost daily. But since I got this copper Parlay on Friday I have not been able to put it down. It just feels so good. Makes me want to sing.

That’s such an interesting ano pattern, kinda ruined by that engraving, but the black rims look great with those colors.

@codinghorror mind taking a profile shot?

I usually don’t like acid washes…but this looks pretty awesome!

Any idea on what the engraving is suppose to be? I can’t figure out if it’s random or if it’s suppose to say something or be an image of something.

The Pragma acid wash is pretty awesome. I believe the engraving spells out Pragma in somewhat cryptic text. It’s kind of like the Radius engraving has Shion spelled out.

I remember all I could think about the first 15 minutes or so was “man, these are _heavy_” but the extra weight feels so much nicer after I got used to it.

And then I switched to my Boosts after an hour or so and it felt like switching from a 70g to 60g yoyo in 1a :joy:
