The fact that it was 50 bucks makes me regret it even more. I have a panorama from OD first drop and it has quickly become one of my favorites. I held off on getting another one to get a survivalist and then ended up missing that one by about 2 minutes. ---

I am a huge fan of One Drop yoyos. In fact, they make all of my most favorite (monometal) yoyos. But could someone explain to me what the big deal is about the Panorama? I just donā€™t get it. I know that its fans find it to be simply awesome, but Iā€™m interested in learning _why_ its fans feel that way. ---

I just got one and have yet to see that light, personally. I might need to swap the bearing to a concave to get it to play the way I enjoy. I kept the flat bearing in a couple of other ODs, like the Lunar Eclipse (which so far I prefer to the Pano), but Iā€™ve been putting the Panorama down in favor of a few others lately every time Iā€™ve tried it. ---

Iā€™m in the same boat. I donā€™t have anything bad to say about the Panorama, but I sincerely just like the Parlay more. I tried it with a centering bearing, ultra light side effects, and I just kept going back to the Parlay. Itā€™s a darned fine yoyo, I just didnā€™t click with it. ---

Yesterday, my first impression of the Panorama was similar, but I love the feel of it in the hand and the surface is awesome. I think it was the width that was challenging compared to what Iā€™m used to. With that in mind I gave it a fresh look today. I paid a little more attention to its needs (which will probably make me sharper overall), and itā€™s crazy how my feeling about this throw has changed. I like variety and this is satisfying. I also love, love, love the sound of it. Some throws can be so winey, hissy or ringy. This one is relaxed and chill. ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/yoyoexpert1/original/4X/b/0/0/b00db3fc22d277a0787896ab433090d9de2dae6b.jpeg) ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/yoyoexpert1/original/4X/a/a/d/aad723c108f107d73c3ee7ef4b89945342171430.jpeg) ---

Yeah I think the panorama is like the VW GTI of the yoyo world. Are there other throws that are better for competition? Obviously. Are there slimmer throws that are more pocketable? Of course. But this one does everything very well. The panorama is just the perfect ā€œdo it allā€ yoyo, and that one drop smoothness just adds to the overall effect as the cherry on top. Itā€™s unresponsive but not too much so, as you can work in regens and stalls if you want to and it doesnā€™t lose its appeal. Youā€™re allowed to like other cars more than the GTI, but the fact remains that itā€™s the best car for every situation.
