That looks like a Yoyorecreation - RAMI. How does it play? ---

Only had a few minutes to play with it and admittedly I haven’t touched a yo-yo in months but I think it plays pretty well. If I recall it feels similar to a Sengoku Musashi. Seems balanced, doesn’t feel aggressive and extreme like Draupnir. Feels solid but not hefty and sluggish like an Ignition. I think it’s a really good balance for 1a and 3a. Go .5-1g lighter and it’s prob a little too light for 3a, any heavier and it would feel pretty heavy for 1a. On a side note, my 3a has kinda gone down the drain 😅 prob cuz I was never that good at 3a in the first place so muscle memory wasn’t as engrained as 1a ---

These two arrived today, weeks sooner than I expected them. Both are Spinworthy fixies, the wood is a cherry KNack, which Glen made for me when Ed first posted the dEHcade idea. The white yoyo is a POM fIxie with aluminum axle. I’ve decided to wait until January 1 to throw the KNack (we will see how close to that date I can get before I breakdown). I did give the POM a few minutes of play tonight. It is light, yet has some power. As we have grown to expect fron Spinworthy, it plays really well, and, does the trick Tapemeasure like nothing I’ve ever played. The POM just glides in your palm. I’m feeling extra fortunate to have been able to pull the trigger on these, especially in light of Glen’s recent announcement. ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/yoyoexpert1/original/4X/c/f/f/cff0d383a7c820db6dd0e18f4f66e13c942c252b.jpeg) ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/yoyoexpert1/original/4X/d/0/1/d0198249112e2674b6c8cbbf0a900697ca90cd66.jpeg) While the picture of the gap makes the yo-yos look asymmetrical, they are not. Glen’s craftsmanship is on point, my photography isn’t. ---

The wood one is a Cherry KNack, which I consider one of the most perfect woods for it. ---

I think OD and DocPop nailed it with the DayTripper response. Especially with a greased bearing. That thing is snappier than my fixed axle 👌 ---

Yeah I do really enjoy it with a little grease. I think overall it plays how I want a responsive 0A yoyo to play more than any other one I’ve tried, but I guess what I’m after is that “perfect” setup where it’ll respond like that without having to maintain the bearing. ---

I bought a ten pack of them at ABEC 5 rating for $10 from Aliexpress. I was concerned that being such a thin bearing it would lack durability/longevity. This doesnt seem to be the case, the original factory bearing in mine is still performing perfectly with zero maintenance. I haven’t touched it and it came unlubed. This is one cool aspect of the design. … I’m eagerly waiting for the RBC drop. ---
