Bearing swap actually worked, which I didn’t expect at all haha. It’s not dead smooth but it’s significantly better.

Today is a great day, probably my best mail day ever, I was waiting for this moment from more than 10 years, from the first time I threw this yoyo as a teenager and never get the chance to have it all for me, I used to use my friend one all the time and he used to lend it to me for days/weeks and then I gave him back until he destroyed it.
This is the throw that put me seriously into yoyoing which I learnt all the basics combos, gave me so many great memories and moments and is a yoyo I always dreamt to have and never get the chance because it went out of production and was impossible to find anywhere even second hand, I saved the money for this thousand times and it get sold immediately before I see the post, I basically was close to gave up on him.
After a million try and fail, the sweet @yoyodoc wrote me in pm asking if I get it and at my answer “sadly not”, he proposed to gift me his one which as you can see is mint, not only gift it to me but also he didn’t want any money for the shipping here in UK, I wasn’t able to believe that, I seriously don’t know how to thank him enough for this beautiful present and for his overall kindness, he made a 30 years old with the heart of a 16 years old incredibly happy and he fulfilled one of the dreams I have, thanks a lot Mo for me this throw represent a lot of passages in my life and a lot of moments, I hope one day I can be good as you and have the same kindness for someone else and I hope I will have the chance to exchange this beautiful present with another one!
So, finally on my hands and all mine the legendary ILYY - Wasabi in all his beauty

After outgrowing both previous cases I bit the bulllet and went for the YYS 36 yo-yo hard case. Now I can fit all my throws in one place!

Yea Ti heterogeneity they dropped on their website about a week ago.
@yoyojoe Yea I’m a bit of a fanboy of their stuff… The price is kind of ridiculous but I justify it by telling myself they don’t release too many Ti yo-yos haha.

I’m totally looking at this exact case (it’s actually in my cart, lol)! I most certainly don’t have 36 throws (yet), but I have enough where they need to be organized and in one spot. That case looks great!

Thanks, it’s beautiful. Also a fan of their stuff, the Ti Heterogeneity was difficult for me not to grab. Price helped. @yoyojoe did you grab one?

Decided to pass because of the price.

Yeah, I don’t have 36 (yet) either but wanted something that I could organize the ones I have easily and neatly and grow into if needed. The only drawback I see with this is that there are no zippered compartments but I have a drawer in my side table dedicated to yoyo parts and strings and such and I can take one of my smaller competition bags if I am going somewhere that I only want to take some of my throws.

Today I received a One Drop T1 20/20 edition in the Saturday Market colorway. This is in perfect condition and so is the box. Both sides look great, can’t decide which I like better

Same mindset here. I have a drawer full of all my tools and parts, and I can take what I need and make space. Most of the time I take a single throw in a Magic Yo-Yo pouch and stick it in my duffle bag for the day. This will definitely be an “on the shelf” item for organization.
