Before Palpitations and Lasers were a thing this this was my OG absolute dream pair.
I didnāt really play 3a back then but itās always been the one style outside of 1a that I really wanted to learn the most.
Fast forward 7 years and now I play 3a and have the pair 
Got it for an insane steal too

Triptych came today!
Plays like itās something in the middle between a Life and a Grail. Really comfy in the hand. I thought The gap would be an issue because Jensen said it was designed with a wider (by less than a millemeter) nsk bearing in mind but I canāt say that I can notice it.
The painted rim really stands out and Iāve not seen anything like it before. Very nice throw!

Is the DK good?

I suppose that depends on what your definition of good is. It is by no means a high performance throw, but itās a ton of fun to play with and it puts a smile on my face. So I would say itās really good.Also, it just might have the best hand feel of any throw i own. It feels very special.

Yes I should have been more specific. I meant how does it feel to play more than anything. I really didnāt expect it to perform at a competition level.

It plays well. Itās very smooth with a somewhat unforgiving catch zone. Itās also not very stable. It forces you to clean up your technique which is one of the reasons I appreciate it. If your on the fence I would say pick one up. If you end up not liking it at least you could count on someone else wanting to buy it off you.

That analogy is honestly not a good one. The doorknob is not ment for competitive play. You wont get extreme stability and spin time with it. Its meant to be unique. Its meant to feel good in the hand, and have a unique feel on the string. That does not make it a bad throw. And I donāt really understand what the analogy means in this context. What i got from it was that the kid trying to get good grades is supposed to be the doorknob trying to be a competitive throw, but that wasnāt what a-rt/sf was going for with the dk at all. Forgive me if i didnt understand it correctly

Performing well and being enjoyable to use are not the same thing. I think the appropriate question to ask about yo-yos like that is āis it funā as opposed to āis it good.ā Because the latter question begs for a performance based evaluation, while the former is much more open.
And youāre right, my analogy was a pretty poor one for trying to get the point across. It really stemmed from the āit depends on what your definition of good isā comment. A kid trying their hardest is certainly good, but that doesnāt necessarily translate to getting a good grade.

I agree that performance does not equal fun for everyone, but it does for me in most cases. And thatās cuz Iām not usually having much fun if Iām not landing tricks, and I land tricks much more consistently with a performance throw than a more evenly balanced throw that tilts all over the place and spins for half the time.

Is that Snapshot a re-branded Spinstar? Or is it a re-branded Loop 720?
