YYR Sleipnir, 2025 re-release of the OG 2009 version.
Sorta double posting since my original post wasn’t in the mail day thread, but I’ve never been so excited about a throw. So my bad if you’re seeing this twice.
#1 grail throw I’ve wanted to own for years, and YYR decides to randomly re-release them after 8-9 years and in the OG 2009 shape. So happy that they were raw/clear as well.
This thing is dead smooth… until the eventual dinging happens. Not even the slightest hint of fingernail vibe on either half. It’s so smooth with a NSK Plat bearing, I can barely hear or feel the spin that I bind early thinking it’s dying, only to have it rocket back into my hand.
Got my SUSKITA the other day, it’s definitely a banger. Plays quite a bit more aggressively than the previous Akita, is slightly sharper on the catch & noticeably more dense/heavy, but is a overall a killer addition to the CLYW comp throw lineup. Love the pin as well
Klondike has been my favorite yoyo of all time since its release in 2023. However I gotta say the extra width on the new Akita is pretty nice. They all feel completely different, it just depends on what feel you’re after.
thanks my dude!! somehow I knew you’d be stoked on this one LOL. hope you’ve been well friend. i need to find the time to make it out to another DXL, its been like a year since i’ve gone lol
CLYW had a throw called “Boy”, G2 has this TOY and also a SOY (S#!tty Organic YoYo), none of which are sold retail, I think they were patreon exclusives, and the Boy is retired
