What did you get in the mail, 2024?


Got some side effects in from OD, the black bathy with brass mini spikes would look so good I bet.

How do you like it? Iā€™d like to get one eventually for a pocket throw

These are all looking sick!
Wicked jealous of everyoneā€™s brass mini spikes.

They definitely add a lot of noticeable heft on the end of the string, if I remember correctly when I was swapping them around all three of these set up like this are a little under 68 grams

Yeah I truly believed they were making some of the best throws out before I even joined the team! So much attention to detail

itā€™s so cute, has a little small flat bearing and a small cut near the gap to help a tad with string tricks. definetly one of my favorite pocket throws iā€™ve used, but i havenā€™t used many. personally i wouldnā€™t buy it full price, but iā€™d definitely recommend picking one off of the bst or on sale when [REDACTED SITE] has them

Yeah theyā€™re a bit pricey new, Iā€™ll have my eye out for a cheap one on here lol

I have a green one I like it but itā€™s a tad heavy in my opinion. Then again I like to do stalls and 0A like stuff. Itā€™s a tad expensive at full retail for what it is but they pop up from time to time.

Yeah a bit too expensive for what I want it for, basically just want one to just throw and return, not really for tricks other than maybe a loop here and there or forward passes/around the world while Iā€™m walking around town. I have a Duncan neo around here somewhere I was using for that but can find it right now

For simple gravity pulls and such I often default to a wood yoyo. Lots of amazing wood but a yoyo factory legend wing is extremely good for its price the boho too. I also think everyone can use a proyo.

For something still on the affordable end but a bit higher end the Origen is a fun yoyo.

Havenā€™t had that opportunity to have multiples of a yoyo, maybe except for the Chief now. Youā€™re making me wish I shouldā€™ve picked up the Kapital in black, but I ended up with the blue instead! Talking about parity, reminds me of this video from Offset on tuning which might be something boutique companies probably pays more attention to.
Also looks like Kapital solid colorways are sold out now on YYE. It looked like it wasnā€™t moving a few weeks ago.

Perhaps you should consider a plastic Imperialā€¦

I have a hot pink Neo :call_me_hand:

I just like the imperial in general and it would be cool to have an aluminum one, also recently discovered there was a velvet version, Iā€™d like to get one of those eventually as well

I love the acid wash and polish on the cup is mirror-like which gives it the extra touch to the finishing!
I did see you are not selling the Informel on your BST post which seems like itā€™s still a keeper for you ! :slight_smile:

Only part Iā€™m not sure about now is doesnā€™t look like the player is using much of this yoyo as of late. Doesnā€™t really mean anything to us, but just wonder if heā€™s moved on from unprld.

Latest post from him seems to be using a CLYW advanced scout prototype, but this was a competition :eyes:

I noticed he goes quite around, he did lot of videos for Disyoyos, when the Anima came out he recorded many tricks with it, I think he goes around, not sure if he is still in the team, I think couple of years ago he had to go military service, not sure of what happened after, one UNPRLD player left the team for CLYW recently, not sure if it is happening with another one.

About the yoyos, if you see on my BST I kept all the UNPRLD, very great stuff!

Picked up @the_generalā€™s latest yesterday at DXL! The new Atonement is a breeze to play - I love that itā€™s light weight without sacrificing any stability due to those brass rims (which looks super classy by the way, and will look even better with some patina over time). And I couldnā€™t resist picking up another Hatrick 2 - Iā€™ve said it before but this is the best performing, most stable organic yoyo you can get right now IMO. Both are super comfortable too, as are most General Yo throws. And this is more of a side note, but yesterday I was talking with some friends about how itā€™s crazy that General Yo is one of the very, very few yoyo companies still making throws that was around in 2008. Pretty impressive amount of time/staying power in the yoyo world!
