What did you get in the mail for 2020/2021?

Yours is beautiful!!
It’s actually growing on me :+1:, as I told to @KAMILB.
It’s very stable, until it’s not anymore. And the “suddenness” it loses its axis is quite surprising, I need to get used to it.

i got the 420 a couple days ago. it’s one i’ve always avoided because i don’t dig large throws, and it appeared to be a monstrosity… and, when compared to other throws i prefer… maybe say a hattrick, or a sudo… the things is a damn bathtub!

however, my peers have not misled… the 420 does not play, or even feel big in the hand… or maybe it’s just because my hands are destroyed from 5a this month and i can’t tell… but, i like the 420 so far and have been pleasantly surprised

Just a regular Replay Pro. Cool colorway though, shame the cap design wears off so easily. I actually like it better than the Freehand Pro with weight rings I just got.

Oh my god, Oh my god, OH MY GOD! :scream: :scream: :scream: :scream: :scream: :scream:

Look what just turned up in the mail today, oh lordy lord.

@gcoomans, Gethin what a legend! Thank you so much for your generosity kind sir :smiling_face_with_three_hearts:

So long story long, I joined in on the recent F.I.X.I.E. competition (the virtual online one) hosted by @adamantiumpops. I knew next to nothing about fixes, and still no clue to be honest, but I had an absolute blast hanging out with some really cool people and enjoying the general banter and camaraderie.

After the Fixie completion ended Gethin (@gcoomans) messages me saying he would love to send me some fixies if I would like to try out more 0a!

TLDR; Gethin kindly sent me these epic yoyos to try my hand at 0A!

Mail Day : Mike Monty’s “Walnut Cambium”, Toy Bania’s “The Thing”, and some fixie strings
(or so I think as a result of my google searching with what little clues I can find on the yoyos but I could be wrong, lol no idea)

@gcoomans, thank you ever so much!
Now I need to think about how I can reciprocate your generosity :blush:

It is gorgeous, even my wife who don’t normally comment on my yoyos said “what’s that? that’s really gorgeous”

Also my Memento isn’t delivered yet, so Gethin pipped it by making this my frist Mike Monty yoyo.

@gcoomans, as I am the Mod for @anon17117379’s Discord server this is like the most perfect gift I could have asked for, once again thank you so much!! :smiling_face_with_three_hearts:

@twitch77, thanks man for helping out my friend Dan.

Sorry it has ballooned to a lot more effort from you than I originally planned.

Sorry it is making you into a mail mule :frowning:

I feel a bit bad now.

The caps are recessed. Are you doing fingerspins on it?

No… well just once. Doesn’t work very well. Just handling it seems to wear the design off. It’s just cheap. But good.

I’m just not understanding how you are touching the caps since they are pretty deep. I have several Replays and never got even a scratch on the caps.

Just picking it up off the shelf, caught it out of the air a few times screwing up at 5a, holding it by the cup and pulling the string to unwind it after feeling it snag during binds. Stuff like that.

Edit: and of course I’ll be more careful not to touch the caps now :wink:

A big thank you to @Roy_Dodge for sending me these goodies!


I sent him some One Drop flat bearings because I’d never use them. It was not for a trade. I didn’t want anything in return. I have not held that issue of Daredevil since the 1980’s (it came out in the late summer of 1981). Thank you! Last fall I submitted something to Weird N.J. magazine and never figured it’d be used. The new issue came in the mail today and my submission was used.

Bought this YYR Almighty a few weeks back from YYE. Very impressive stability and spin time. Probably the longest spin time in my collection tbh. Dead smooth, even on finger spins. Honestly doesn’t feel heavy in spite of the 67 gr weight.

My 10 yr old son hijacked this throw and started loving to play with unresponsive yoyos now because of this. Looks like I will have to get another one when it becomes available at YYE.
