Didnāt get these in the mail per se, but I got the totally rad opportunity to visit One Dropās office and get a tour yesterday! Picked up a Rev:
And a Deep State, and grabbed some purple ultra lites while I was at it:
Got to try out a buttload of throws for a few hours while I was there, which Iāve never been able to do before. Plus @da5id and @The_Machinist and @ando_commando (just guessing thatās his name on here) are just the coolest dudes. If youāre ever even remotely close to Eugene, Iād say get in touch with them, it was an EXTREMELY dope experience!
What a great unboxing experience Iāve had today. Just look at that premium packageing, Apple should take notes! @ryanmcg Thanks alot for these two awesome yoyos and the extra strings. They play great and look even more awesome. This really made my day (probably even my week). My hunt for a purple yoyo now finally found an end.
Apple aināt got nothing on my makeshift boxes!
Really glad my first international shipping experience ended well, and I hope you like the yo-yos, they were two I really enjoyed.
I went straight for an hour long session throwing these two after coming from work. They really suit my taste. Comfortable shape with solid stability and spin. They are definitely keepers for me.
oh man is that the Jelly 3x3? iāve wanted to try one for awhile now! they look nice
Yeah, I love the milky color on them. A little bit hard on the eye while solving but I donāt care. I just got this Cube and another cheap magnetic one in my mail last weekend. Took me a whole day to memorize the beginner method.
cool!! i might pick one up after christmas
Just got this, the Rev 1, and itās pretty sweet. Iāve only thrown it a bit, but it feels very different than the Top Deck. Feels more like a Küntosh to me, which makes sense since the cup design is similar, like a Küntosh with the corners rounded off. It really only feels like a TD in the hand, and even then itās more comfortable with slightly larger radius rounding on the corners. Iām still using the flat bearing and so far I donāt have a reason to swap it out. Itās stable, yet not too difficult to bend the plane when you need to make adjustments. Not sure yet what Iād change for a Rev 2. I usually have things Iād change right away.
Saturday Markey Ice colorway. Baby toys in the background ![]()
3 weeks later Iāve finally got my replacement Recog. Of course at this point I donāt really want either of mine anymore but I donāt feel like immediately selling them at a loss.
3 weeks doesnāt seem like the worst turnaround on a replacement to me. Did you have to send the old one back? If so before or after the new one arrived?
Really excited about this one. I ordered the olive colorway. Should be here Friday. I may be able to look at it for a second then itās wrapped up for Christmas.
The olive looks great; I almost got that instead. My wife is holding onto some green yoyo for Christmas though. I donāt have anything green, and it was kinda a thing for her to get me something green. Silly, I know. Iām sure @twitch77 would appreciate it though.
Not silly at all. Green is my wifeās favorite color. So its a way for us to āconnectā. I like to get things in green because it makes her happy.
Thatās how I keep my daughter interested. Hopefully one day sheāll let me teach her, but for now she loves picking out pink and purple yo-yos for me.
Mine too!
