Super, duper happy to have this one back in my possession! Brown/Grey (1/3) Pink/Grey(1:5) fade halfswap Weekender FS from DocPop.
I made this half-swap and gave the other one to my best friend but I already had 2 other Weekenders and for some reason sold this one. Immediately regretted it as it has some sentimentality due to the rarity/best friend connection. Its back now though, I owe a big thank you to @TryCatchThrow for reaching out to sell it back to me!
First one up is a YYF Skyline, found this on flebay. It is in like new condition, I think maybe the hubstacks where changed as I’ve only seen pictures of them with white.
when I worked in NY I found so many damn boxes left at the ground floor by the elevators or tossed Infront of the door of the office instead of in the mail room and I could never fathom why or how… I hope your package finds you safely. May the USPS gods be in your favor and that package just chilling at a front desk somewhere waiting for someone to let you know where it is.
One Drop Fat Tire 20/20. Another excellent yoyo and I’m really digging the monochrome color. And the Enso Equanimity. B grade and it has to be the anodizing may be a little light in color because this puppy has no vibe. And, wow this plays nice. Very happy with both
The Fat Tire 20/20 has some thick rims, compared to the original Fat Tire.
ohh that’s a beautiful colorway. that fade and half swap is sweet. also good guy @TryCatchThrow for selling back such a cool yoyo with such a sentimental connection. I would have had a hard time letting that go myself.
at the time i was very strict on my “no duplicates” rule, and i already had 2 weekenders that i was actively beating up playing 5A with. this one was sitting around not getting played so i sold it, literally as soon as i dropped it in the mail i regretted it, but i had 2 other weekenders so i survived lol
I also have a no duplicate rule other than 2 a throws but my way of getting around that is passing on dups to my brothers so i still have access to them. probably cheating my own rule but ohh well.
i also cheat on my no duplicates rule by allowing different alloys. weekender vs weekender fs is also allowed lol. these exceptions are not always applicable and depend on the yoyo in question LOL
The loop 720’s are actually a fix to an error Ben at yoyo factory was super cool and when I let him know they where missing from my order he tossed in some spacers to make it up to me which is awesome cause these are a gift for My brothers birthday along with the silver which I’m super tempted to keep but I’m not the magic lover here I just like the shape of the yoyo. Maybe I’ll find another at some point for myself.
The tiny was impulse off the bst but it’s super cool.
The one I wanted most anticipated the most and jumped on the fastest had to be the no jive. A yo-yo I’ve wanted for a while and finally convinced myself to get when I saw it on a post. The seller was even cool enough to toss in the legend which I wasn’t expecting.
I love this community.
Somewhere in the bunch of stuff I sorted the other day is a knuckle yo that arrived over the weekend from the lovely @TommyBwell super excited to mess with that one more when I get a chance and need to get a picture of it as well.
Might be the “just got it/honeymoon stage” talking, but I already have a funny feeling this is gonna end up being one of my all-time favorites. Between the color and just the flat out OD perfection, I’m in heaven right now. Best mail day in a long time for this guy!
