Absolutely agree. I’ve been playing it for the past few days and it’s easily one of my absolute favorites. I also agree the color is amazing!

Pink Sparkle Speedaholic.
It plays ridiculously similarly to my Shooting Star.
I mostly practice fingerspins on the Shooting Star, and if I had to compare and contrast, the Speedaholic is a tiny bit harder to catch and a tiny bit more stable in a fingerspin. But the similarities are really far greater than their differences. But the Pink Sparkle is really fun!
I think my next fingerspinning oriented purchase will be an Iceberg. Will I have reached peak fingerspin throw then?

In my opinion the Horizon is the peak of fingerspin designs (the yyr Almighty is probably just as good, but I haven’t played one).
It requires a little more technique to get it to work, but once your technique is there, it’s amazing. Those big dimples for fingerspins are great for locking onto a single finger, but I think they make it especially difficult to hop the yoyo between different fingers or do weird fingerspin catches. I tried an Iceberg and I didn’t think it was any better than the Speedaholic XX in regard to fingerspins. Having to hit and lock into the center dimple instead of just having a massive concave cup just makes it more limiting.

I will have to check out the Horizon (I see a few on the BST and a few still available on YYE but need to chill).
Interesting about the Iceberg. I had assumed the weight ring would have made a big difference.

I was lucky to get this off yo-yo expert forum it is beautiful half swap Green and Bronze Sudo.
I have only seen one of these before, I believe it is that one.
This is the 1st Sudo I had seen, it caught my eye in a group photo of throws while in a discussion on the yo-yo expert forum I wanted it then. I never landed it. but that incounter lead me to good friends in the yo-yo community along with an education and my 1st taste of the Static Co. Sudo the rest is history.
Thank you yo-yo types
Thank you AquaJoe

Was a good mail day! My first One Drops. Initially I had ordered just the panorama then on another thread someone told me don’t sleep on the free solo. Who ever that was they are the real MVP. After only a few hours, I think it’s become my new favorite throw. Big shout out to one drop! My house/town just got obliterated by hurricane Ian and they were able to put these two beauties to the side for me until I felt comfortable having packages sent. I really appreciate it!

Gway Throws Regulator. This thing is soo unique playing. It’s so light but very powerful and controlled, I would definitely try it if you’re considering it…
