Both yo-yos are really nice with them! The Deep State is a tad slower, and seems to loop slightly better. Still does everything else it does great. I have another DS with ultra lights and anodized finish to contrast it with.

Are they just to have for opportunities, or for something specific?

Can’t wait to try the other two in May! :heart_eyes:

I tried to get 15 or so Spinstars for my daughters home school co-op, but it ended not working out in time so I picked up 6 just to give away to interested kids while throwing in public (gave away the first one yesterday😀). If you enjoy fixed axle or modern responsive styles then you will love the Spinstar! Super fun. May be the best choice for a first yoyo that I’ve tried. Highly recommend.

As for the other two…

The hype for the Honey Badger is real and the Octavia has that Ti magic and Horizon like fingerspins! Can’t wait for you guys try em out at the May Atl meet up!

I got to try one at UYYC. It is such a strange throw. It’s suuuuuper satisfying to do chopsticks with that thing. The only reason I didn’t pick one up was that I didn’t know how I was going to carry it around! :joy:

That’s too funny, that’s the main reason I didn’t snag the proto when I was at ECM. It’s almost mind blowing how light and floaty it is when it’s so freaking huge. Landed a beefhook on it, which was quite satisfying, decided to call it a burmhook lol.

How are you liking the overdrive?

I mean it when I say it’s the finest yoyo I’ve ever used. I was going to get 2, but decided on one instead because I wasn’t sure how I’d like it, but I’m kicking myself now for only getting 1.

Really insane throw

I was thinking of getting a green Overdrive Draupnir but decided on a blue Draupnir from BST instead. Also may get a black Anomaly to go with my red/blue one.
