What did you get in the mail, 2024?

Very cool! How noisy are these XFs?

Noisy, goes quiet for short periods. If I did a micro drop of One Drop lube would probably quiet it for short time. But, the noise might be adding to the fun. It’s not similar to a dry bearing noise on a metal yoyo, which I do find annoying when it gets loud. This sounds like the cap shaking, which it’s not since they are on snug. Reminds me of an old American muscle car from the 60’s, hood shaking, doors squeaking and lots of great sound from the engine. :grin:

It plays/performs very well. Still getting a feel for it, seems as if a lot of weight at the rims. Naturally for me my mind wants to compare to the Centrifugal because it’s my favorite. But they are quite different. I definitely don’t have anything similar so I’m looking forward to playing it a lot. Nice work on all your issues :hugs:

Edit: When i say the Centrifugal is my favorite, it’s one of my favorites from any brand not just Motion. Sits on the table right next to me in the living room

Be wary of the seat. It’s nickel plated and comes without the bearing installed so it will be a tight fit at first. Plays amazing, perfect response!

Is it blasted nickel? It looks sick. I’ve never seen so much texture on a nickel throw before.

It has a very nice matte texture to it for sure.

Dark Magic II arrived!

Parents found it at their house. What a win.

Slapped in a hybrid ceramic concave, plus a nylon string.
All of a sudden it can handle zontals :stuck_out_tongue_closed_eyes:
